Not so much of a job offer, more that my boss doesn't want me to go and has asked if I can keep doing what I am doing now but from another country. But it seems the answer is a resounding no, so I'll be delivering him the bad news on Monday. Thanks for the advice guys and gals, I'm glad I didn't go with my intuition and end up getting myself in trouble.

But in good news, I checked the consulate for updates on my visa application today and WooHoo, I have an approval status, I checked my courier bag and that is on its way to me too. Very exciting, but also scary.
 

Deliver the news when you have passport with visa in hand. Nothing is certain until then. Good luck!

Courier bag arrived at work on Monday morning (yesterday), had passport and papers in there. I gave him the bad news, he was pretty bummed, but he was happy for me.

You can mention you will let them know when you become work authorised?

I did mention it, but will have to see how it plays out, not being able to do anything for possibly up to a year might cut my desirability off at the knees.
