Nat Gas Man Intervention Needed

I did all that and moved to the Tucson area. Oro Valley is as nice as any place

In AZ and for those that haven’t lived there not as hot as St George. It has a higher elevation than Phoenix, especially Oro Valley. Oh and more rain. The high schools there are superb. This is not Tucson proper, which is really a dive and always has been

And by the way the BB coach at UofA is newly a God to those people

They will clean up the mess over time. But they are also crazy think they are a Blue Blood school. Not true

What would you do if you were offered to double your salary by moving to Tucson?

I could buy several double-wides in Tucson if I doubled my salary

4/14/21 10:17pm

Slumlord!

4/15/21 1:59am

I would do it...

JOPE

4/14/21 10:17pm

Then you couldn’t b/c you wouldn’t uproot your family, very different than Pope.

BYUfan92

4/14/21 10:19pm

I don’t know if I could ever turn down doubling my salary

JOPE

4/14/21 10:24pm

How much value on bad company, pending sanctions, unethical co would you put?

BYUfan92

4/14/21 10:28pm

It wouldn’t matter nearly as much if they’re doubling my salary versus paying me 10% more

JOPE

4/14/21 10:29pm

Ah yes, the Bad Company

Blue Cat

I would absolutely do it.

It isn’t to far out there to think that the bear down bb boosters in Tucson

Tucson is way too hot. It sux. Agree with your other points as well. Arizona is

But you could hang out in brazilcoug's pool

TNT

Lived there already. I will pass, especially with bad leadership

Dr T-bone

4/14/21 10:24pm

You lost me at Tucson

Tare

4/14/21 10:25pm

Agreed. That’s the worst part. And I don’t think meaningful sanctions are

Money is overrated. If I had Pope's current salary, that's more than I ever need

CopperLix

4/14/21 10:26pm

I couldn't live in Tuscon or Phoenix. Too hot. I'll take terrible Idaho winters

Y-Zag

4/14/21 10:27pm

I left Idaho for that reason. Will never go back

LakeshowCougs

Western Idaho winters are very mild

I live in Az and am familiar with those areas and agree with you - Tucson isn’t

BYUfan92

4/14/21 10:35pm

Depends on what my salary was.

ManicBlue

4/14/21 10:29pm

I’d rather be dead in Utah than alive in Tucson

Tuh not tuh.

IceBlue

4/14/21 11:08pm

I'd have to quote Police Academy 2(?) and say "---- no, we won't go!"

OldFogey

4/14/21 11:11pm

I wouldn’t do it - it’s too hot down there

aaronmania

4/14/21 11:44pm

Double my salary and go to a place that will do anything to be successful?

Blue Cat

4/14/21 11:45pm

Don’t kid yourself it isn’t any cheaper

Nat Gas Man

4/14/21 11:48pm

Cheaper than what?

Blue Cat

4/14/21 11:54pm

Ok yes it is about the same as Provo, but his housing would likely be about $2M

Nat Gas Man

4/14/21 11:58pm

In a heartbeat.

Depends, if I made money in the NBA, had my dream job, was making over

oldrugger

4/15/21 5:59am

Double my salary?! I don't think there is much that would turn me away from doing it.

4/15/21 7:27am

I grew up in Tucson. I hate Tucson. I would do it in a heartbeat.
