HoooooRRRRAAAYYYYY! I'm getting goosebumps at the thought of your first glimpse of the glistening arch!!!! Think the Clydesdales will escort you in from the city limits? So, so happy to know you'll be back there. Congratulations and best of luck.
Love, Ima

Thanks, all! The official offer is a promotion and a modest raise, plus a moving allowance. Haven't had a chance yet to tell The Boss. I have 2 words for him: buh bye!

Congrats AD! I hope this opportunity proves to be successful for you, which I will define as you work with honest, honorable people who treat you with respect and you like working with. And also that you enjoy your work and are, hopefully, successful in your research. B-) :9f:

Great news! I hope the package they offer you is extremely generous.
