Possible new job

[Dangerdan]

How many of you guys (professionalls especially) have been offered and taken a new job when you were employed? I am a professional and I was approched this week by another firm who wants to hire me. They are offering me about a $10,000 salary increase. I think I would really like the new job, but my current office has no idea that I may be leaving. My current office is going to be hella furious if I leave. Its really wierd working now knowing that I probably won't be here in a month, but still setting up future appointments, meetings, etc.

I have some loyalty issue and feel bad about leaving my current job but the new offer is just too good to pass up.

You could always tell your current office about the offer and see if they'll match it in order to keep you?

[Dangerdan]

I could, but I think I would like to work for the new place more, plus they have this one smoking hot secretary.

more money + hot secretary = no brainer

more money + hot secretary = no brainer

Thats what I'm thinking.

[PROTEINSHAKE]

once you give your notice......they may try to give you a raise to try to keep you there...... just tell em they gada hire a hot secretary

This girl wears like schoolgirl skirts and kneehighs to work too. It's just amazing.

On the down side, the new job is in the same office building as my current one(its a large building) and even on the same set of elevators so I would continue to see everyone I work with now. But the new office is on the 42 floor and my current office in only on the 9th floor so its a better view.

Either way you should leave your present job on good terms because you never know what can happen and maybe one day you could end up back there. Definately go for the new job if it pays better and you think you have a brighter future there. Beleive me there is nothing wrong with having bad feelings and loyalty issues because you are leaving, it just means you put alot of effort into your work and are a good employee. What company wouldn't want someone who cares about their business. Good luck whatever you choose!

[Dangerdan]

I think I will probably take the new offer. I'm just in an uncomfortable position right now.

Just tell them whats the deal, and if they can't match or beat the other's salary, then give your 2 weeks, and adios...here I come extra cash and hot bitches!

but def. leave on good terms. Never wanna burn your bridges.

Hot girls and 10 more grand. first of all working is about the money. people who say it isnt... dont make enough money hahaha.

expet the bodybuilders here, i no you guys dont get paid shit, which is really crappy but still.

if it seems like a better place to work, hot chicks and more pay, and not just like a lil more, 10 grand more... thats a good chunk of change. u know what to do.

I would confront your boss in this manner. Explain to him that currently your wage just isn't letting you live your life comfortably and fortunately another firm has offered to hire me with a 20,000 pay increase. Say that you love working for him now but an increase in wage that can put me in a comfortable living position is hard to pass up. Either the boss will give you the 20,000 or maybe even 15,000 and you can end up working in the same place with more tenure and more pay.....or if he decides not to match it you can move on to the new place with the increase in wage and slamming whorish secretary...your choice bro.
