Anyone that has ever had to drive around that God forsaken area called Tidewater will tell you how stressful a place it is. The traffic stinks, the people are rude, and crime is rampant.

I got a good laugh out of that list!!!! I recently retired from Albany/Schenectady, NY and came back home to Alabama. I was "sentenced" there for two three-year terms, once back in the early 80's and once in Y2k. The first time, I had to leave the company to move back south; the second I had to retire!!!!

They say its not stressful there..... low unemployment, right, everyone works for the state!!!! Lots of snow..... 100" for the 02/03 season; no stress there..... but summers are great there!!!! both weeks are wonderful.... The people talk funny there and they have no idea about football or Auburn...... A STRESSFUL PLACE!!
