You gotta try the sweet tea in the souf, shits like crack omg. Southern hospitality is second to none. Throw some 24"s on the accord and you're set. Like the saying goes "grass is greener..." Give it a try at least it sounds like a good deal. I'll watch your surfboards while your gone.

He really did but its true. But this time there is substance behind it.
This is probably MY BIGGEST concern dude. I absolutely HATE the heat. HATE dude. But again, traveling would be a major portion of the job sooooo.....
Dear craigz,
How heat sensitive are you?
I ask this because I moved from Central Illinois (not very hot) to Southern Louisiana (hot as hell). It didn't really bother me, in fact I love the heat. Nothing better than a warm night to hang out with the lady friend outside and take a walk or whatever.
SD is a pretty sick town, but imo living in the south is a win situation too. Lots of culture, people are nice as hell and just relaxed, and you probably won't find better food.
I took a big gamble moving down south for a baseball scholarship, and it's been the best decision of my life thus far, I plan to live there as long as I can, even after college.
People think southerner's are dumb ... and after living both ways I think it's the opposite. You have your occasional yokel down here, but more or less people are more educated down here compared to where I'm from. :lmao: inb4 flame

dude i say go for it, as many before me said. how many people are looking for jobs and unemployed right now? you have talked about moving around and going places, and now a close friend of yours, whom you trust, offered you a job where you travel around half the time. it gives pretty good pay and although you have to move to some strange place in the south, how lucky/fortunate do you think other people are in your situation..

I can safely say all of the negative assumptions above are pretty much wrong
Duluth GA is a pretty good place
It's minutes from many central areas, from industrial, Business, to large shopping centers. It's local in North Metro Atlanta, a blooming area for businesses.
Though the city itself is "old", but the real estate is pretty nice and retain their prices better that the other suburb.
Weather-wise, it's similar to other Atlanta areas. I'm used to it so I can't say.
Night life in the ATL is pretty nice. Since you're only 20-30 mintues from Buckhead and midtown, a party city in the A, you won't be bored. Do not think it's the "southern thing with empty lands and farm", you're gravely mistaken.
The bad: Cops are pretty much DICK. There's no near by beaches. You can go to FL which range from 5hrs drive or more.
You don't have to live in Duluth. There are many other areas that's within 15-20 minute drive (Alpharetta, Norcross, Lawrenceville, Suwanee, Buford, etc.)
