that time, petitioner and his family lived in Arlington, Texas.
Petitioner had worked at Nokia for about a year and a half and
quit because Nokia wanted to transfer him to Finland.
Petitioner was then hired by Motorola in Seguin, Texas.
Petitioner signed an employment agreement with Motorola on August
3, 1994. The agreement characterized petitioner as an at-will
employee, listed his yearly salary, and contained procedures by
which Motorola would pay petitioner's moving and relocation
costs. Petitioner began working as a test engineer with Motorola
on August 22, 1994.
Motorola agreed to pay closing costs and appraisal fees
associated with the purchase of a home in the Seguin area.
Motorola also agreed to reimburse petitioner for temporary
apartment and utility expenses for up to 3 months or until a
permanent residence was established, whichever occurred first.
Petitioner agreed to reimburse Motorola for these expenses if he
voluntarily terminated employment within 12 months of his
starting date. Motorola reported petitioner's salary on a Form
W-2.
During the time petitioner worked for Motorola, he lived in
a small furnished apartment in New Braunfels, Texas. Petitioner
continued to interview with engineering companies in other parts
of Texas. Petitioner wanted more job security and a healthier
work environment at a geographic location where there were more
trees and less flat landscape.
