I’ve been hired on with a company under a contract with a stipulation, it’s required that I work until I receive a journeyman ticket ( red seal program ) and a couple of years after commitment. I’ve been working with the company for 4+ years now and about to receive my journeyman, but I’m finding it really hard where I’m to, meaning, that I’m away from my relationship and all of my friends and family which is taking a toll on my mind and body. I’m wondering would it be a good idea to ask my HR department to see if I can transfer to another area within the company, where it'll hopefully get me closer? I love my work, just not the place.

This has been stressing me out on a daily basis now for the past couple of months, and I don't know who to ask or even if I do ask I'll be putting my job in jeopardy.

Thanks.
