Thanks for all the responses.

The commute info was not for me, but my son. He's a journeyman electrician and has been offered a job with an industrial contractor doing maintenance electrical work at one of the refineries in Deer Park. If he takes the job, a family member who is an empty nester living in Spring has offered to let him stay in his house for free, just splitting the food bill. So my son was wondering about the commute. And I posted that because I know the OT has a lot of members in Houston.

I told my son he could find a similar job at one of the numerous industrial plants between NOLA and BR and not have to move to Houston.

Well, if he's getting the friends and family rent rate, it'll give him time to move to Pearland or somewhere close to his job. A couple of months of traffic death can be dealt with.

Free rent was a critical element you left out, because that means your son would have thousands in the bank in a couple of months that he could use to move closer to his job.

His future is getting him out of Louisiana. I drove over an hour to shipyards on the Westbank, spent 40 minutes driving 15 miles in Baton Rouge, etc. He needs to go to Texas. Texas has electrician needs in helicopter repair, massive home building, rig repair, etc. Louisiana has ... Food?
