...or I should say I love to visit Atlanta.
Went to a kick a** concert Thursday night, came home Friday. That was enough for me.
I also was offered a $75K per year job. That would be a 50% pay increase. Hmmm, I just
don't know.
For those that live up that way, pros and cons of living there?
And please don't say the traffic, you might as well say the sky is blue

Congratumalations on the job offer and even more for the pretty gal in your life now!
I personally don't like Atlanta at all but I like living within an hour and a half of it. Better restaurants, museums, bigger music venues etc. Downtown Atlanta is cool. But I'm guessing your job offer is in one of the satellite burb towns like Lawrenceville or Marietta or some such? The crowds and endless strip mall type architecture is a turn off but the higher wages and possibility of excitement and worldly(sorta worldly) enrichment are tempting.
One thang am fo sho. You'll be a HELLUVA closer to most Ga Chat shindigs!
And.... FIRST ya'll muddafukkas!

Congrats on first! I was beginning to think I would wake up to replies..
I have been wanting to make a few meet and greets, just never worked out.
The office is in Norcross.
It's the same field I am in (different company) but management.

I grew up in a small town. It was too lonely for me. I don't enjoy Atlanta's traffic. I enjoy Atlanta's amenities more than I dislike the traffic. (I will tolerate the traffic in order to enjoy what Atlanta has to offer.)

Atlanta has everything you want when it comes to entertainment and a social life ... If you like to get out, you'll have plenty to do ... If you are more of a homebody, then it would be no different than Bloomingdale... The biggest adjustment when I moved was the realization that at Wal-mart, you wont run into anyone you know (out of 200+ people) you know absolutely no one.., you go anywhere and all you have are strangers ...It's weird at first ... So if you have a good network of friends and family where you are then the Money is not worth it ... but if you are alone there and need a "renewal" get you azz up to Atlanta and start enjoying the extra cash and opportunity !!!
Good for you that someone acknowledged your expertise and potential...

I'm not a homebody. I enjoy going and doing free things when I have free time. Free time Is a joke between two jobs and my mom.

Love the Atlanta area Airport, restaurant choices, things to do. Traffic doesn't even bother me. Just live near where you work and it's fine. It's your choice where you live so I always figured the whiners picked the wrong area not near their work. If i want peace and quiet I can drive to it easily enough with Good luck with your decision
