Finding a new Home Town

When does a person decide it is time to relocate? Are we weary of the city we currently reside in? Are we looking for employment or better employment?

I read that women have an easier time hunting for a new career or at the very least a new job than men do. I found this to be an interesting comment and wondered about the validity of it until I spent some time thinking about this concept.

First, the article must have meant single or women without children, as most women I know go out of their way to keep their kids in the same school district unless it is absolutely necessary to move. So they keep less than lucrative jobs, and relegate themselves to "living with" their current employment status in their efforts to keep the family unit status quo.

So I am picking one group of women today, to focus on...that is women with grown children, no husband, and in a less than stellar job situation.

Perhaps the author of the aforementioned aticle knew as we do that we wear different hats throughout our lives.
We are party planners, bookkeepers, childcare providers, cleaners, cooks and run a taxi service. We serve on PTA boards, sell unknown quantities of cookies, gift wrap, raise funds, and do charity work.
So it shouldn't be a surprise that we are able to move into a new job or career, or even into a new city for that job easier than most men do.

Women make friends easier and have more friends than men. We are queens at networking and sensing when someone needs a helping hand.
That is just how it is. We are wired differently.
As the future unfolds, we will see more women as heads of countries, owners of businesses, and in the political arena. Women are getting tired of "dumbing" down to make men look better.

We have a lot of catching up to do, so changing careers or locations is just another step in that direction.
