    I'm sure some of you have heard the rumors. As of today it is official. I am transferring to Green Bay, Wisconsin. My tentative start date in GB is August 1st. Alot sooner than I had hoped.

    I am going to be insanely busy the next couple months, and any extra hands that you can lend would be appreciated. I have a basement that needs to be finished completely before my departure...actually before the house goes on the market. There are numerous items that have been left here by some of you that you are going to want to claim. I have tons of painting to do in each room.

    Seriously, this came as a huge shock, as I figured they'd have given me some more time to get things taken care of. 60 days isn't much time to do what needs to be done. Especially with 2 weeks of notice before hand.

    If anyone can lend a hand. Any day, any time. I wont be doing anything besides getting ready to move at this point.

    It is with a heavy heart that I say all of this, as I honestly am going to miss alot of you guys.

    Sincerely

    Jason

    Son of a bitch.

    That really sucks. :(

    Having lived in Green Bay, I can tell you this: the only good thing about that city is the fact that you're only a couple hours from Chicago and Milwaukee. I'm swamped until I get back from CA, but I should be able to come by next week to help out.

    There don't seem to be many homes to choose from out there. I'm so sick of looking at flat ranch houses.

    Well, this is about as g*y as 8 dudes, f**king 9 dudes! And the fact that they left you to basically sell your house in 2 months is a joke! Someone with the decision making ability up higher in your company should remove their head from their rear, and see that in this crap economy.... you can't just up and sell you house!

    Hopefully it all works out in the end, but in the meantime... it just sucks!

    It's gonna be tough to see ya go Jason!

    Yeah, it's creeping up on me the severity of this whole thing. 2 months is absolutely insane, and if I don't spend the first 30 days of it finishing the basement, then I'll lose my ass hard on the house since I purchased it with "finished basement." So, that is the big rush. Part 2 is getting the carpets replaced. They are 22 years old. They have to go. Part 3 is the deck, it needs a few boards replaced. But nothing too big. Add on that, daily maintenance like yardwork and cleaning and such, along with my full time job etc...yeah...I'm not going to have a minute of free time really.

    Well at least we'll have someone to come visit when we come Charter Salmon fishing. I hope that just because you're physically farther away your presents shouldn't be felt that way.

    I guess if you have a big day scheduled I could stopby help run the grill or hammer some nails.

    I'm guessing I'll have to relinquish my role as President for this, since I wont be here for meetings or anything at that point. 5 hours? Yeah, 9am meetings wont be happening if I have to leave before 4am to get there.
