Partner went to bat for me! 🙂
Last night, I got a nastygram from a client who basically wanted to forego due diligence in a major buyout we’re helping him with. “Stop requesting documents and just draft me my docs.” But we literally don’t know who owns what right now, terrible corporate records. This morning, the partner told me he’ll probably fire this client, big pat on the back.

My current project is going to end soon by October, and my location change request is approved for Kolkata. It's showing in DPN and everything.
But is there a chance that in the next project my manager could ask me to relocate?


Any thoughts?
Anybody with some insight on this please tell me? Especially if you're from Manager or above.
