Texas and NJ are very excellent. Was there a few years back. Don't miss the opportunity to go there if you can

If you have the time and money, it wouldn't be a bad idea.

I'm a west coast guy been to Minnesota once for a couple of days but outside of that haven't really left the west coast

Money is caadi to be honest.. I just dislike traveling long distances.
Hopefully if I do get time off work *a week or so* I will definitely fly either to Texas or NJ I dont see the point in flying to Minnesota..
It all depends on whether I get the time off or not.. :|

Texas. Good weather, friendly people, I found it cheaper and more to do.

I can only speak for Houston, Austin, Copperas Cove and Fort Hood though.

If you're thinking Dallas, no clue.

If you are heading around Fort Hood, tell them you are the daughter or related to a serviceman in the army.

I got 80% off a jacket when they falsely thought I was a soldier. They love their army personnel lool

I've seen a good 20 people being laid off in my floor alone. Its scaring me. I asked my manager to put a good in for me and he said you are in placement so I have nothing to worry about. But I don't trust em. Ass kissing is the only way to survive

Mostly development employees are at risk and international employees at England I recall hearing

Its a failure of a company. Itll be sold by 2012 end

Total lack of respect for customers too. When the BIS outage occurred, somehow the managers had their blackberry messaging working. Millions had no access but they somehow did

:lol: I highly doubt they will think someone like me with a hijaab and a thick British accent is related to a serviceman in the army.. :lol:

Thanks though.. I was leaning towards Texas aswell.. I think they live in Houston.
