[QUOTE="Mattsmom277, post: 445602, member: 4264"] We were wondering if anything we had overlooked was casting a black cloud or something. Goes to show us we have to chill out perhaps and stop beating our heads. The HR woman called earlier today and was apologetic at being unable to contact S/O yesterday. She apologized profusely on behalf of the company. She explained that head office (THink its in Utah, I do know its in the US) sent a email saying NO MORE HIRING for now, and it only came on Monday. She said they felt horrible about it as they'd thought they were clear to do further hiring at this time. Apparently a few people had signed employment contracts then there was S/O who she had they HAD been intending to have in this week to sign HIS contract and begin work straight away. She assured him that even those recently signed employees who hadn't started yet unfortunately ALL are in the same boat as S/O and the local location is very upset at putting them in this position. After a brief chat, it was clear to them that S/O has to move ahead and seek a different position elsewhere, however being that this position was a superb position and following confirmation that he was a day away from signing a contract, he would be willing to consider an offer even if he finds other employment however at that stage if he did leave that place to go back to this company he would require time to give adequate notice. She understood completely and assured S/O that he, along with the 4 others in his position, will be the FIRST to be called when hiring is authorized again and their offers will remain in place even if they need a time period to give notice to another employer. Much peace of mind today and glad she called back and explained. This also leaves us less depressed at him taking a less high up position and less pay elsewhere, as we know this company DOES want to employ him and they will at some point be in touch to offer him the position in writing. For now we're hopeful he can find SOMETHING in his field and start some money flowing. He's got some good leads, and he hadn't been exploring them as this company had been number one on his wish list. So crossing fingers he finds something else, tout suite as well! [/QUOTE]
