You have a good point about maybe someone getting married or quitting.  Turnover tends to be somewhat high at CPA firms.  During my time at my last firm, there were a number of people who also went out on maternity leave.

Having moved around a lot, I know about the moving.  It's a pain.  Have a garage sale and make some cash while reducing the amount of stuff you have to move.

And congrats on the job!

I'm doing a temp to possible permanent position for a non profit entity doing fund accounting/grant reporting.  I'll post update if I get hired permanently.  I started the beginning of this month.

Couldn't hurt to try the position if it isn't going to cost you a lot of money to relocate in case it doesn't turn into something permanent; plus, you'll get to see if you really like that city.  If you aren't tied down to a family, mortage, etc. in your current location which would make it difficult to move temporarily, I say go for it.  Isn't it awful how everyone is job chasing?
