Sigh found out today that our office will be relocating, I knew it was on the cards, so not surprised, but where they are relocating too has annoyed me
I work half a mile from my house, and the current offices are located next to my son's school, I share a car with hubby although I have it 90% of the time. I made the decision to work so close to home a few years back as I hate travelling through rush hour.
Found out the new offices are 20 - 30 minutes drive away in a smallish village/suburb the other side of town, not on a direct bus route either
I know this won't be of concern to my bosses but grrr, my hours will have to change, my travel costs will rise, I'll need to find childcare, all at a time where money is tight.
They have done this to appease a client we have in the current building, and of course the new offices are right on their own doorstep.
I know I should be grateful to be in a job right now, however, my work life balance has been something that's very important to me and I've worked so hard at and finally achieved. This will have a big impact on my family
On the plus side, a reshuffle means that it's likely I will reporting to 3 Directors in the near future so my workload and job interest should pick up over the next 3 - 6 months.
