It’s only October but it looks like it will already be a tough new year for 120 employees  at Choice Hotels International.  They announced today that they will be closing their call center in Orchard Mesa, effective at the end of the year.  Some will still be employed by the company but will have to move to Phoenix.  About 40 others will have to switch to a new company and those that are totally laid off Choice Hotels will offer support through job training, resume writing, placement services and severance packages.
