Brampton?! Where's dat?

*Sigh*

Okay, so I'm on project at my company's downtown office. Everything is lovely. Better cafe, better hours, no working on weekends.. I'm laughing right? I've been downtown for 7 months. Then the higher brass decides. "Oh, lets move the whole (friggin') team up to (friggin') Brampton and nevermind the (friggin') commute for our peeps!"

Oh...CRAP!

I live in Ajax. It's in Toronto suburbia. Hard enough to get downtown but now they want me to go WHERE? So here's the problem. I could move closer to the Brampton office but i'm on project. Meaning my director could say at anytime. "Jen, we have no more work for you please go back to your old office" in which case I'd of moved for NOTHING. Being on project means also i'm spending more cash for transportation. Also HOW the hell am i going to get there? I really don't fancy returning to my old office and having to be a phone monkey again but at least its closer?

So which should it be? less cash / further to go / less job stress in Brampton? or More cash / less agro to get to / more job stress. The evil thing is the director said there are "job opportunities" at Brampton - making it sound like I could have a permanent job there if i stick around long enough. Only problem is.. he's no longer my director!! My new director just came in from Sprint Canada!

Gaaahhhhh.....
