Happened to me, with a difference. My Department was moved from the City of London to Croydon and I was asked if I would be prepared to move with the Department.
As I was living at the time 5mins down the road when I was originally asked and the new travel time using transport that would not cost 20 times the the current level would have meant 2hours to get to work and 2hours to get home every day, I said it was not feasible to expect me to do that and pay for the privilege.
I then moved out of London. Then travel took me 1hr each way (which I did not mind too much) with the new Croydon office travel would have still taken 2hours each way, so again said not feasible etc.
I was mad redundant!
Gee's points are well worth considering, however also speak to HR and/or your boss too! They can't help you if they don't know there is a potential problem!
