2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason

Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.

Right now I'm working 100% remotely for my company, but considering moving to another state so I can be with my long-distance girlfriend. I was thinking about asking if it was OK but... Now I think I'm just gonna go and if they randomly decide I need to be in the office someday is when I'll tell them the great news lol
...and by that I'll say "yeah, I'll be there in a day to straighten this whole thing out, I'm delayed because of Insert lie here!" And then fly in like a loser because this job is the only thing keeping my head above water right now
Yeah... That not going to work unless you can maintain a mailing address in your current state. You employer has a withhold taxes and other stuff and it varies from state to state. So they need to know what state you're in, so they can follow the laws of that state. It's a headache for payroll and hr, so if there's not already a corporate presence in that state they may just say no and deny your relocation... Which is really bad if you've already relocated. Having a way to maintain a mailing address in the state council work with the tax situation, but it is illegal and the new state will want their cut when they find out.
I don't know what country but, in the US that's a textbook example of constructive dismissal if they force you to work in office. It's a primary example of work conditions changing by the employer that prevents you from being able to do your job.
It wouldn't help you keep your job but, it's highly likely it would make you eligible for unemployment while looking for a new job.
Do you get insurance through your job? Also, taxes would be a nightmare
