Im living in thibodaux. No wife or kid. Pretty much living the dream. Love my job. There is a position opening up I was strongly encouraged to apply for in my company. I'm one of two people in consideration. It's a promotion and would be double my yearly pay. The problem is it's in fricking ville platt. I don't want to not apply and not show any want for upward mobility. At the same time I really like living here.

Plot twist.

Where I would be taking over. That guy is getting demoted and would have to work under me if he stayed. I know this dude personally. He's been at this job longer than me.

Neither sound like ideal places to live. Take the money. Won't be your last move.

The Platte has plenty of hoes to drop your disposable income on. Make the move.

Forget the wife and kid part. Please explain the rest. I'm very confused.

Thibodaux isn't really as bad a what people on here say. Decent schools. Fairly cheap cost of living.
