Chaney taking office early

Incoming Insurance Commissioner Mike Chaney will be taking over a few days early as George Dale prepares to resign on Dec. 31.

Dale is leaving early to take a mystery job. What kind of job would not let an elected official finish out 10 more days?

We'll have to wait and see... (on clarionledger.com):

Dale said Wednesday he was taking another job, which is part of the reason he was resigning early, but he would not say what it was.

“The place where I’m going to be going will be doing the announcing for me,” Dale said.

Any guesses?
