Handling a Cross Country Move?

Tarin.n asks: "For the past 2 years, I have worked remotely from the East Coast for a Silicon Valley company. The company is now considering moving me to the west coast, so that I can be closer to their headquarters. I'm trying to make a list of questions to ask of the company as we discuss this transition, as well as a list of items to take care of personally for such a move. What experience have others on Slashdot had with a cross-country move? Specifically, what should I ask and watch out for?"

My question for you:

[DogDude]

Why are you moving cross-country for a job? Is the job THAT great that you're going to destroy any local ties that you have jsut to keep them happy? Call me nuts, but work comes secondary to the rest of my life, and something as critical like where I live isn't decided by work.
