At the time I didn't have comparable offers, but my daughter was about a year old and my wife basically said I'd be going alone if I did. I'm glad I didn't though, I had just started a network engineering gig about a year before that and it lead into some pretty nice opportunities and experience which I cashed in on a couple years ago.

I'm in Minnesota so the cold doesn't really bother me, and I know the isolation wouldn't have either. I think I'd actually enjoy living up there, fishing is my favorite thing to do outside of work and it doesn't get better than Alaska. Wife and kid have different plans though I'm sure I'll end up living some place warm soon!

*insert generic comment about wearing pants, putting foot down etc etc*

I'm more of a hiker*than fishing), but I also need some good beer/whiskey and cigars readily available, and internet. Been too spoiled by it now to go without.

Fuck warmth, even NY get's too warm like two months of the year for me, I can barely tolerate the sticky humidity, let alone imagine what a southern place like Florida would feel like. Pass.

Only place in Florida I'd consider is the Keys...lowest rainfall in the state and the average temp varies from 73 in the winter to 79 in the summer.

most likely you didn't have what it takes, because anyone with nuts would take the offer.
They offered him the job, obviously he had what it takes. Turning it down just means he has other options. I understand that sounds like winning the lotto to you but he probably has comparable offers in more desirable places.

My understanding was "if I was single" IE moving his family to Alaska was not a viable option. Not to discount your point, just stating my view...that guy still made a retarded comment none the less.
