So my employer dropped a 9 ton bomb on our butts today

We already have an office there, and they filled a bunch of positions here in Atlanta without giving consideration to the staff that is already here. They only have enough positions for half of the people here to move to the new Atlanta location, the rest have to go to Irvine. If you don't get Atlanta as your first pick and choose not to go to Irvine, you'll get relocated to NYC, Chicago, or some place in Michigan near Detroit.

I'll take Irvine over any of those, because at least it doesn't rain much and did I mention I HATE cold weather. It comes with a healthy pay increase, but it's a wash due to cost of living difference.

Worst case scenario:

1) I say "go **** yourselves, I quit"
2) Live in Newport Beach for a year and see how I like it. If I don't, I say "I hate this ****, go **** yourselves, I quit" and move back to Atlanta.

Screw Atlanta too now that I think about it, maybe you should give Cali a shot. Or get a spread of land out in the country somewhere. Yeah, do that.

You are not a slave or at least I assume.

You have to decide if you want to stay with the company. You are in charge of your own destiny.
 
True - IF your current gun(s) are California approved models.

Oh you'll know if I have to move. My ARs and AKs will stay with my dad here in GA. My hand guns will go up for sale in mass numbers so I can buy "CA approved" models of the exact same thing when I get there.
