My job just asked me if I wanted a promotion

To become a manager. Chat Icon My boss is leaving and they want me to take his job. It's such a hard decision cause it's longer hours, (7 til 5...I work 6-2 now) harder work, more stressful but double salary. I said I wasn't sure right now.Chat Icon

I say go for it! I am sure you will do a great job. You have a stomach ache now, because of the unknown, but I know you are hardworking & dedicated and will do a great job.

Congratulations! I think it is a great opportunity for you.

Re: My job just asked me if I wanted a promotion

Also, they wouldn't have offered it to you, if they didn't think you were capable of it. What a great compliment!

The fact that they offered you the job means that they know you are competent to do a great job and the fact they are offering to double your salary means that they appreciate as a worker. Right now you feel like that because of the new situation and of the unknown. I said you should take it.
Congrats!!!!Chat Icon Chat Icon

Wow double the salary! You do whatever you think is best for you. Working 6-2 is sweet but double the money is too.

Re: My job just asked me if I wanted a promotion

Congrats! That's a nice complient on your work, and double the salary is great! I'd do it for a year or two and then think about moving to a management position elsewhere with a pension. But the double salary and increased responsibilities will give you great leverage when you decide to move on, IMO.
