What to say? What to say?
Don't want to say too much, but I recently quit my current position in Aix-en-Provence and will be starting with another firm, doing the same thing, in Marseille in a few months time, once my current notice period is over (3 months in France!).
There are many things I will miss about working in Aix, the 90+ minutes per day of commute not being one of them.
I have been here five years and it is time for a change.

I think it will be a good change. You can always go to Aix on the weekends. Mom
Good luck with your job change. I hope it's a great move for you. I am sure it will be nice to not have a long commute. Have a great weekend.
Congrats! Hopefully there's a better salary on the list of positives too. :)
3 hours a day travel time could not have been much fun. Best of luck with the new position.
Best of luck!
We use the ATM machines to get cash and Robb has an account with BNP Paribas in Paris. I could be wrong, but I think the banks will accept foreign checks.
