Thats funny. I feel the same way. Did not like the work environment but I think they do a good job at hosting and registration.

I worked at GD for 2 years, and still have friends there. I wouldn't work there again, but have no problem giving them my business... compared to a lot of other registrars.

you do not have to wait to move a domain until renewal. You do not loose anythime either. there is an exception. If you move the domain within 60 days of renewal you may loose your renewal period.

Darren,
I'm happy to hear that your ordeal worked out for you.
I, however did get ripped off by GoDaddy. I paid them the money for them to
park my domain name, but then next time I checked the domain had been re
assigned to somebody else. So next time my other domain comes up for renewal,
guess who won't be getting my money. Burn me once...
