The Job
Posted Jul 21 at 5:15 PM
We are rapidly outgrowing our office building. I am lucky enough to work in an industry that is still growing. There have been all kinds of rumors about what the company will do. The city of Newark pitched us a sweetheart deal,but we turned it down.(Thamk God! I spent 30 years trying to get out of that town.) Then a realtor that we had some lease space we acquired when we bought out another company tried a deal, their prices were way too high. Next was assing an addition over our parking lot,that didn't allow for enough parking space for our occupancy load. Next we were definately moving to one of 5 select locations, but our CEO shot that one down.
The latest is that we are buying a smaller 75000 sq.ft. building within a haaaalf mile of our current locaation. A couple of departments ,primarily engineering will move there. The catch of this rumor is that I will become the building manager at the new location and reopen an in-house printshop. It would be nice,but I am not holding my breath.
