It's just like you to [innocently] make it look like you planned to resign while your boss was away! You know what would be nice, if your boss said something like "Oh, we just happen to have an office in NYC that needs a security specialist so why don't you just put in for a transfer." In case you didn't already know this about me, I like to fantasize. A lot. :grins: Heh. It’s just like you to [innocently] make it look like you planned to resign while your boss was away!

I declined. Presents in April are always welcome. <b>BB,</b> thank you. :grins: <b>Abs,</b> as far as I know I am not moving to New Jersey. <b>Sour,</b> nothing was said. My boss is on vacation until Tuesday of next week. And, believe me, my timing was NOT strategic. My boss told me he was going on vacation until July 22 on July 3 at 2:00pm. I didn't know at that time when I would be leaving. And, they can waste their breath with counteroffers all they want. Me staying in France is not even on the menu.
