A big company has been "wooing" me for the last month trying to convince me to leave my current job and work for them and I am very very interested. They even flew me down for an interview FIRST CLASS! I LOVED flying first class!!! I got to be interviewed by a vice president (RARE), met with the CEO (RARE) then interviewed by the marketing department (the position they want me to fill is in the marketing dept).
I am currently trying to gather information to present to them so they can prepare a job offer for me.
Here's my questions/issues-
I live in Maryland and the new job will be in SLC, Utah. I have gathered some estimates from moving companies.
My rough plan at this time is to have a moving company move my stuff and tow my car (looks like I may have to use 2 companies since most companies won't do both) while I rent a van, get 3-4 crates and put my cats (2 to one crate for Zebra/tango and Bud/Spike then an individual crates for Heidi and Pepper) and drive to Utah with someone (take turns driving).
Any ideas or other options are welcome about this also!
Now my issue is how to figure out the costs of travelling from MD to utah (gas), food, staying at hotels (petfriendly), AND the estimated costs of flying someone from utah to help me drive down and so forth. Where can I find this information or figure this out?? I am not great with math/numbers.
Another question- how do I find pet friendly hotels that'd be on the routes that I'd be taking? Is there a quick way to figure this out or what?
Another question- is it possible for me to find a place to live within a month in Utah (apartment) that would allow 6 cats?? I've looked at www.rent.com and it looks like most apts will accept 2 cats at the MOST. I REFUSE to consider giving up ANY of my babies. That is NOT AN OPTION. What would you suggest?? I was thinking of buying a home but is it possible for me to find a home within a month????? Is that realistic??
Any other advice/ideas will be welcomed!
If I think of any other questions, I'll add them here.
