I hate to reply to my own post, but in this case I think it's good form. I'm going to give notice as soon as my boss is back from wherever he's gotten off to.

I hate to reply to my own post, but in this case I think it's good form. I'm going to give notice as soon as my boss is back from wherever he's gotten off to. I do have another job offer that I'm debating. I think it's probably better to turn that down and finally get out of this backwater (a city of ~40k people in a mountainous US state). That means moving in with my parents in Nebraska until we get things together for a move somewhere more startup and tech friendly. While I'd be happy moving to the Bay area and eeking it out in a one-bedroom place, I'm not going to drag the wife and dog (can you even find dog-friendly places out there?) into that. I hope none of the affected parties reads this...
