W: Hey, Tom. Got a second?
M: Sure, what’s up?
W:(6-1)The company has offered me a new position. It’s kind of a promotion.
M: Hey! Congratulations! That’s great!
W:(6-2)Well, yes... but the new position would require me to relocate to our office in Orlando, Florida. I know you relocated here from Chicago, so I wanted to get your two cents worth.
M: Sure. Well, for starters, (6-3)I went the opposite direction, moving from the States to Asia, so it’s quite a different ball game. But I think the main thing you have to do is weigh the pros and cons.
W: I don’t even know where to start.(9-1)One "pro" is a higher salary.
M: That’s always a pro. But there’s a whole bunch of other factors to consider.
W: Such as?
M: Well, consider how you get to work here. You take the subway, right?
W: Of course.
M:(7)In Orlando you would have to drive.
W: Anything else?
M:(8)I think one of the biggest things you might face is the change in the pace of life. In most of America, things don’t zip by like they do here in Asia.
W: So many "cons".
M: No, no. There’s some great "pros" as well.(9-2)On a financial note, you’ll probably be able to save a lot more of your salary and have more disposable income, as rents and living costs in that area are reasonable.
W: Yes. From a financial standpoint relocating makes sense, but I just want to make sure I’m not shooting myself in the foot. Happiness is important, right?
M: Oh, absolutely.(9-3)But Florida is a beautiful state with a nice climate. You’ll be able to enjoy the beaches and take vacations in Miami!
W: Sounds good. It’s just such a hard decision for me. I want to branch out and spread my wings, but there’s so many "unknowns".
M: Yeah, I also had mixed emotions when they first offered me this job.
W: How long did it take you to settle into your new environment?
M:(10-1)I have to be honest. For the first 3 months I was pretty unhappy. I didn’t like the food, and couldn’t figure out the subway system. But after the four-month mark, I began to feel much better.
W: Now how does it feel? You’ve been here for a full year, right?
M:(10-2)My one-year anniversary is next week, and I have to say, I’ve never been happier.
W: Thanks for sharing your experience with me, Tom. I really appreciate it. You help me clarify my own feelings.
M: Glad to be of help. Don’t forget to invite me to your going-away party!
W: I won’t!
