WTF So I just dick'd my butt

[Jehannum]

in my field at least, once you hit "director of XXXX" thats something you never back down from, ie all your future jobs will be director level jobs.

I've studiously avoided positions with "manager" attached for that exact reason.

or at least negotiate proper overtime if thats a thing in your field.

Director of Integration may be a 70 hour a week job, when your current is 50. So even if its a significant salary raise, it could be a net loss.

I haven't had an hourly wage in over a decade.

I don't see a problem with that.

One of my friends' makes more money by changing jobs than waiting for a raise, ad business.

i've never had an hourly wage. Doesnt mean i count my time over 40 hours a week as worthless. Even salaried, i expect to be compensated for that somehow.

I don't work for free.

No one does. The savvy salaried professional calcuates their salary into their actual 60 hour work week.
And before five of you jump in and protest "I'm never in the office more than 40 hours", everything counts. Emails, texts, working on projects at home, and phone contact while commuting.
Most modern people don't have the luxury of a Fred Flintstone job where they get to slide down the Bronto-crane tail and screw off into the sunset in their footy car.

Fred Flintstone here. I like it.

 

[adi]

I don't

 

[Ledboots]

Fred Flintstone here. I like it.

Me too! Patients all pink and breathing, go home, forget everything.

 

[my little brony]

director of XXXX"

Oh man that would be filthy job, that's one more X

 

[my little brony]

Me too! Patients all pink and breathing, go home, forget everything.

Wait what about the brown ones

 

[Ledboots]

Wait what about the brown ones

We still call them pink, so racist, some charts say "color normal"

 

[Jehannum]

I don't work for free.

No, but you do run the risk of drastically reducing your hourly wage if you're a retard.

That's my philosophy in dating, they're all pink on the inside

I think people may have missed that I was distilling what robot said.

 

[OzSTEEZ]

I'm telling you what the end result could be if you stay. And then they will make you miserable, while the job you accepted in the promise land is long gone. It's unlikely to be worth the risk...

How on earth do you know exactly how people will act/think in a given situation?

 

[OzSTEEZ]

I've studiously avoided positions with "manager" attached for that exact reason.

Just move country. That renders your former management experience useless.... Apparently...

Never said I did. The general opinion is that its a bad idea. Management resentment, fellow employee resentment, the reason you were looking for another job in the first place. Any or all of those can come back to bite you. Not to mention burning a bridge with the new company as well.
