88. My dad did not have a job with either move
We sold basically everything and carried what we could in a car the first time and a car and a trailer the second time.

Should a societal expectation be that a job will always be down the street from where you are living irrespective of what you invest in yourself to be a more valuable employee? I don't even think a completely planned economy could make this happen.

I do know right now that someone like my dad would be in trouble in today's economy because his type of industrial job has become rare. We definitely need to fix that.
