Guys I know I bounce work ideas off you guys every once in a while. Well it's that time of the month again. :biggrin:
Well after seeing that myspace dude with 3 exotics, I got a nice break recently.
I started a new job a few weeks ago and I really love it. My co-workers and superiors love me. I'm making pretty good money as well to boot for 40 hours per week of work (let's say I don't need to stand by the freeway with a "will work for food" sign).
Anyway, I got a call from a good friend / former co-worker of mine, who just got promoted to a high level position. He asked me if I'd take his old job, and I'd work for him. Well this guy and I are great friends and get along great, and he'd make sure I'd succeed at his old job (which I have done before as well).
The only thing is the new job requires getting back on the road again. But I'd have a lot of flexibility working for my friend, so I could arrange to be home quite frequently.
To make the offer sweeter, I'd be getting a 40% raise in compensation!
What do you guys think?
Take the job and get a cushy position working for my buddy, get a 40% raise.
Or stay where I'm at, be happy, and don't be tempted? Keep in mind the job offer is for a job I used to do and love, and now I will have a buddy for a boss, whereas before I had a rather unpleasant boss whom I didn't get along with, which is why I left several years ago.
