My husband has gotten a job offer in our home state (we were aiming to move back in the near future) but this was a bit more sudden. We decided that I will work at my current job while applying for other positions in the other state.
1)What is the reason I should give for leaving without sounding unprofessional (ie: my husband plans on relocating and I am going to follow him there) and affecting the reference they give me after I leave the job.

2)Will prospective employers frown down upon my decision to leave a great job in this economic climate? Will they see it as risky etc?

3)I have a manager and a 'boss' i work with…Should I set up a meeting with both at the same time or talk to my manager first?

ANY help on this is greatly appreciated!

Assuming you do not have a job lined up in New Destination, and assuming that you make a reasonable wage, you will easily be able to afford it. Or, offer to work an extra week if they'll put you up in a hotel.

Your boss is unlikely to accept. But she is likely to remember your offer of flexibility, in a good way. And if she DOES accept, it's not so bad in the end.
