Me too. But not everyone's personality is like that. Some just don't think about telling us they are considering moving to a different province until they have the job, their home is sold and they are ready to roll. I don't think they intend to screw us over but they just don't view it as relevant to us until they need to give notice. Or maybe they worry we'll replace them and give them notice before they are ready to go.

As said, it's nice when clients keep up in the loop and are open and communicate with us but I don't think they always mean to screw us over when they don't. They just aren't those types of personality.
