not always, just recently. Latest saga is job trouble. Dh id being made redundant end of july as company is closing. We moved here only 2 months ago for his job on relocation money, I may add because he was on a very good 5 year contract. It was rumoured some people may be facing redundancy but he was assured before the move it wasnt him. You can imagine evryones shock, not just dh's that the whole company was closing. He was offered transfer to 2 other branches (wont say where in case some of your husbands work at this particular site !) but dh is just not happy with the company and wouldnt feel safe there anyway. He has had 10 interviews in the past 2-3 weeks, and second interviews on alot of jobs. He is waiting answers for a few that would involve a commute but we wouldnt have to move again.
Trouble is he has been offered a very good position but it would mean relocating AGAIN and we have only just moved. Part of me says to him wait for something closer to here and another says well we havent settled yet and at least the mortgage will get paid. Also its a bit of a case of 'once bitten twice shy' iykwim. He is the main breadwinner so everything depends on his wage.
What to do? and dont laugh we feel crap about our situation, we must be the unluckiest people just lately!!
