But if the job is located in Redmond, does that mean widely distributed in Redmond itself, or the Eastside, or all King County, or the whole Puget Sound area?

That's usually what a judge decides.

Anyway, I went checking and I wasn't able to find any opening in Microsoft in the Seattle times online version. Which is definitely not a nice optics and would play unfortunately well with the current allegations

The point of a green card is "Nobody in the US was able to do this job"

In that context, "Widely distributed" really shouldn't be such a complicated concept. What does the NYT charge to run a classified ad?

"Nobody in redmond could do this job!". Cool, did you try any of the other 49 states at all? No? Then go away.
