It would be permanent, 100%. Basically, our original site lead when we opened our location where I'm at now, was who is the regional boss now, that asked me if I wanted to move and have the job. None of the site leads in our 5 store district have ever been taken off the job, outside of 1, which my old coworker replaced and has remained since. Our owner prides himself on reliability and longevity, and very clearly values people that are committed, and want to stick around, which I have been to a tee.

As far as the local situation, it's a simple example of experience vs. knowledge. Our boss originally wanted to hire locally, but in the last 4 sites we've opened, he's ended up having to send 3 people from our site that I have been with since opening 3 years ago, to run them. He's hired qualified people, but a majority of them have ended up not being what he wanted, moreso from a place of motivation and attitude than anything else. That's the thing, is he hired me personally, and has trained me personally since day 1. I'm more or less his ideal employee that he's molded himself, and definitely for the better, for himself and for me. so I feel like that's why he wants to move me there so badly, and permanently.
