Visiting and working in Canada

[trailmix 77]

Ok, so something krikit said made me think about this.

Say you are now living in the U.S. with your spouse and say you kind of like the job you had in Canada. They call you up and ask you to come back to work for a period of time....would you?

I think there is too much reading to do in this poll

Yes and yes for me..

2 weeks is a bit long for me to be away. I find 3 days starts to get long.

I am a YES!! I plan on going home for 2 weeks as soon as I receive my AP.... I still call Canada home, I just don't feel home yet here.... My hubby is staying here for work, he's a big boy so he'll be just fine on his own!!

I said yes and yes.

[MsZ 6]

Answering for my husband, he'd go to Canada to work for two weeks, no problem. It would be OK with both of us.

On the second, there is an option that isn't listed and that is that my husband (if he needed a 'ticket' that is) would coordinate the trip with me so that our obligations and anything else going on are covered. Whether I went with him or not would have to do with our logisitics.

Is someone trying to hold their spouse hostage in the US? ;-)

The poll is about how spouses feel about being away from their spouse for a period of time - not about logistics at all.

Over analyzing!!

Well, the last option on both questions don't apply to me so that eliminates that option. If my spouse wasn't holding me hostage I would choose Option 1 on the first question, however, I have spent an awful lot of time away from my spouse these past couple of years so I don't feel comfortable choosing that option. Then again, my spouse probably wouldn't be too happy about it (see last sentence) but I wouldn't decline the offer, either...... I'd just choose my timing ..... so that eliminates that option. I guess I'll pick Option A on question 1.

For Question 2 can I have some clarification, please? Is the ticket to fly home for my birthday or to use whenever I can get away? Oh, and when do we leave?

It's your birthday present - but an open ticket, you can use it whenever you like

Well in that case.... The reason I asked the question is because our birthdays are one day apart so I'd feel really bad about leaving him here while I went away.

Soooo..... my answer for question 2 would be to immediately go online to book. But I'd be the same as MsZ.... I'd try to coordinate it where he could come to. But if he can't, that's okay. I'd been on my own so long previous to this that I have absolutely no qualms about going on my own. Except for the fact that he might not like it.

Guess I'll go vote now that I've got it all worked out. Being an analytical type can get really exhausting sometimes.

You can't coordinate it so that you go together!

The poll is silly

I didn't work it and re-work it because I thought I would just create it and throw it out there - but it is specifically about whether or not you would leave your spouse behind and go on a trip.

I would redo it but my sex and the city dvd is here

Marriage test #1 failed. I guess I don't feel bad at all leaving poor Chris behind.

I thought about saying, I'd ask if he wanted to come, but then I thought, nah, Dale and Thom need looking after he should stay home in this scenario.
