DH is being transfered :-/

So right now we are both very fortunate that we have a 5 mile commute to work and that we work about one mile apart. It's been very convenient when I was having car problems or we needed to rush home and get something.

H was passed over for the promotion to DM, but now they have come to him and asked him to open a new store for them. We are trying to see this as a good opportunity but we are both a little apprehensive. The new store is about 20 miles from out house :-( Plus he is going from the busiest and highest earning store in the franchise to a new unproven locations.

 Next Thursday is his last day at his current store. We could use some vibes that this new opportunity goes well for him.

  • Good luck to your H! I think being 20 miles from home is still being lucky.

  • Good luck to you guys! 20 minutes is nothing!! I know it will feel like a bit more as compared to 5 minutes, but 20 minutes isn't bad at all!

    Its miles from 5 miles to 20 miles.  I think right now his commute is like 14 mins, and it will be like 30mins. Which I know is nothing compared to a lot of peoples commutes. I'm more worried about having to start a new store from scratch when he was use too a store that did so well on its own.

  • i'm sure it's scary to start a totally new location, but hopefully it gives him the boost he needs to get the promotion next time. Are you hopeful about his new location? good luck to you and H!

    I'm pretty worried about this new location TBH. I'm afraid its going to be a bust. Its maybe 2 or 3 miles down the road from the 2nd busiest store in the franchise.  Its a whole new shopping center that just recently opened. Its in front of a Wegman's, next to a Joe's Crab Shack and there is rumors of a Cheesecake Factory to come. Its a pretty busy area though so who knows. I mean the owner of this franchise has the most successful franchise in the country so he must know what he is doing.

  • Good luck to him!  Hopefully he can make this new location a success so he can get promoted next time!
  • I have a feeling it will be great! The company obv trusts your husband to make it successful. I'm sure it will be great! It will be different, but hopefully in a good way.

  • Good Luck girl.  It'll all work out.  This is a great stepping stone for him to use when the next time a DOM position opens.  I know the commute will suck for him but think of it as they trust him enough to start up a brand new store!
