I'm moving to Ottawa!

**MacGyver** · June 5th, 2002, 08:23 PM

Today I officially accepted a job offer to our new Ottawa office! My wife and I are so excited to be getting out of Toronto! Looks like we'll be moving sometime in the next three months, so we're going up to Ottawa in a few weeks to snag an apartment before all the university students snatch them all up. I'll be doing much the same thing I have been doing in our Toronto office for the last 5 years. But the lifestyle change is what we are really looking forward to. A lot slower pace than Toronto's hustle and bustle.

One of the first tasks will be to get the office running according to company standards, as the people currently there don't have any experience with the company. Also we'll be looking for some different office space since the current space is about 10 times the size we actually need.

Now the fun stuff starts! Hope I can get DSL at the new apartment.

That's great news Mac!

(That means I can have a place to crash if I ever - for some unknown reason - get the urge to visit the country's capital... )

Congrats Mac.

Hey guys, lets organize a surprise "pendre la crémaillère" party at Mac's place.
As soon as he'll give us the address, we can ... oops.!

Haha, my wife and I will probably end up in a small one bedroom apartment to start, but it won't take us long to scrape enough money together for a townhouse. Then we'll have a big housewarming and extra rooms for guests.
