Mr. Blouse...you da man! http://www.detroitchamber.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=479:richard-e-blouse-jr-cce-a-president&catid=6:about-us
I live a few minutes from the Detroit boundary in a pretty nice suburb and the public school system traditionally has been one of the best in the state and is where my older two sons attended. I have been looking at a company that has an opening for a job working in north Miami near the airport and I have not yet pulled the trigger....pardon the pun....because I have an 11 year old to raise and I have to wonder just what public school can he go to? If I received an offer from this company and decided to take it this I would probably live in Broward county....maybe in Davie, Fl. I am also trying to land a couple of jobs in the Clearwater area which I think would be a better place for my wife and my 11 year old. These kinds of stats for Miami do not help to sell the place that's for sure.
