We had a guy and the pizza shop I worked show up and ask for a job. He had just driven from New Jersey to South Florida to set up a new life. He wanted full time, a privilege that was rarely awarded. But he gave full availability and showed clear dedication to the job. He got the job. He was our best and most energetic employee for over a year.

Then one day he said "alright guys it's been real, but I want to move to California now." And he did, the next week. I feel like that guy will do well no matter where he goes.

I envy that kind of freedom. But I understand having the curse of itchy feet. Some people can't stay still.
