John, hear! hear! Please, new museum professionals...read and take hedd of his word. It's all about relocation, relocation, relocation... However, after 10 years in the profession, I was able to gain enough experience (in the southeast) to land a position in PA, my home state...at a decent salary. I may have even been able to get back home sooner but I wanted the "perfect" job...and I was willing to bide my time while looking for it.
