Uprooting his family a 3rd time in 3 years and no income tax in Florida could have played a part in his decision too.  But i dont think he woulda spent 2 days with us if he flat out wasnt interested.  He got Florida to make him a better offer.

You're probably 100% right.

I propose two things from now on--

No one in the building says shit about any of it until the deal is struck.

Ask first, will you take the damn job if it's offered.

On second thought, make that three things--third, find and choke out whoever this "source" is.  This whole thing is being greatly compounded by the publicness of it.
