Soon we will be Utahans not Texans

Today Chad sent me this e-mail.......

Melissa,
Make sure you are seated, because what you are about to read will really bowl you over. I got word today from the boss that the SLC spot is going to be rescinded. Apparently with the budget being tight, they don't have the extra funding to open up a brand new aviation office. I guess with the whole expense of leasing a hangar, providing equipment to support the aircraft, etc. it is going to be quite an expense to get things going. Gee, you'd think they would have looked at all that stuff ahead of time! Man, our management is so impressive. SO, it looks like they are going to hold off on opening SLC for a while. By a while, they mean at least a year or two.
Sorry, I know you were really stoked to go there. Maybe in another year or two the budget situation will improve, and we can still go.
See you at home, I love you.

I was floored and at first thought it was a joke, I kept looking for the part that Chad says just kidding and there was no just kidding part, so I believed it. Well, I was about ready to send out some e-mails saying that we are not moving after all, when Chad walked in and said he was just kidding. He got the official notice today that he got the job in Salt Lake and we will be moving. What a Butt. Now we wait for the government to set aside the money for us to move, then we have 3 months to report.
