Reply To: Would you take a job in the 'boondocks' ?

the first thing to do when you are offered such a position is to acknowledge where it came from and what it means. Then call the local Chabad in that area and find out what the Jewish community is like in that area and the neighboring areas and don’t be a snob about it. Mishaneh makom mishaneh mazal and sometimes moving to a smaller community is a wakeup call.
