I just got a new job and I currently work from home until I can relocate due to my lease. My manager randomly told me last week that maybe we can make an exception and pay out the remainder of your lease for you to move now? I’m not ready to move now tho 😭. What should I say? Would it be wild to say it’s too sudden and I’m good to stick with waiting for my lease to end? I don’t want to take advantage of the wfh situation, but I do want to be with family as much as possible before I have to move.

I'd suggest to say something along those lines.. phone call is the best way to discuss out. Always a good idea to hear your mgr out first.

Hi <MgrName>,

Thank you for the offer. It's pretty generous for you to consider that given I'm just starting with <nameofco>. Really appreciate it.

Having I am not mentally prepared to wind up and move given <state your family situation here>. Can I please have <2/3 weeks or say a month max.. state a reasonable timeframe by when you'd consider the move>?

I'd really appreciate this flexibility. I'll ensure that I'll make myself fully available while being remote and provide the utmost productivity as demanded by this job.

Thanks and waiting to hear back.
