And at the same time, you say "I don't want to get the crap kicked out of
me by standing up for myself" - which to me DOESN'T sound like that great
of a place to live. Unless you like living in fear of having the crap
kicked out of you for standing up for yourself.
I understand that there are things you like about MK. I also understand
that you haven't actually seen a lot of the world, so your decision-
making being based on what you know is what's limiting you.

Nobody in MK perhaps, which is why you maybe need to broaden your search
parameters - and not just by fields, but by geography.
That's my point, and one you have rather persistently not seen.
