Confused about where to go next.. ironically.

The commute isn't quite 30 miles, but then it's all we've known since leaving uni so it's not something that bothers us.

I'd rather travel a bit more for a better paid role than limit myself with distance, although 30 miles is a fair way. Some people I know won't go 5 miles from their house and really think that if you don't work in the town you live in you're mad.

Indeed...I used to have an hours drive every day for a job once...and that was only for 12k, just because I had to at the time to get some form of money coming in...

I suppose if the job was right, I would do it, but when I search I dont normally look that affar...Sadly I live in a small town, so there is nothing here...I had to drive atleast 10 miles each direction to get to a bigger town.

30 miles is not that bad a commute, unless you're planning on driving into London or some such...

I would think given the current economic climate that you'd have to accept some form of commute for a career change.

Oh and be aware that IT is often an easy target for cuts. Don't jump from the frying pan into the fire.

Well I'd be driving, I wouldn't be able to afford driving and a train...at the moment anyway...either way, I wouldnt want to spend over an hour commuting to work...

As above, the reason I worked in Luton travelling for an hour one way was because of the way things turned in 2008, so I know what its like to have to travel 'just because' :(

I'm in IT, although in the public sector, so I kinda have jumped into the fire, but it was either this or carry on at Wickes! :)
