Where you work is dependent on your employer's owners. They get to decide.
In CA, superior weather, you don't have to stay indoors for months at a time. Also the water is better than Colorado river runoff.
Except in San Diego where the water is mostly from the Colorado. Lots of lettuce hormones and perchlorates added on the way through the Imperial Valley to San Diego. Extra yummy. If you drink the tap water, you really have a death wish. I lost 3 dogs to stomach cancer over the years in San Diego.
