Only older work permits it states the permit is only good for me for the location that its issued to. The latest one I got doesn't make this disclaimer. Does it mean I can work anywhere under this permit, did rules change?

It does state the workplace so I'm guessing I would have to have a new work permit created and this one terminated which likely is a painful process.

Your work permit is tied to your current employer. If you wish to work for someone else then you need a new LMO and then a new work permit.

If you submitted your PR/OWP application you have options to wait for your open wp bec your under implied status.
