I've been open and honest and tried to make it easy for Manning, but they seem determined to make it hard for me. The difficult thing is that if they post me somewhere I don't want to be, whilst knowing that I sought to leave, how deep I will have to dig to find motivation whilst knowing that I have lost out on a job which meant I could settle at home with Mrs Compressorstall. It's an interesting study in bi-directional loyalty.
