Wow..my ex-boss

Is pursuing me big time. She's asking me what $$ it would take. She understands i will also need flexibility in time.

I love her, but I'm so undecided about what to do. I have to think about exactly what it would take to get me there.

Dilemma!

Re: Wow..my ex-boss

I'm afraid that what I want and need will be too much for her to negotiate.

I don't know why she's pursuing me so hard. I'm sure she can find someone to do what she needs. It's reallynot rocket science.

Like I said, I'm concerned that what I need and want will not be something she can negotiate.

Re: Wow..my ex-boss

I think I'm more flattered than anything and I don't want it to cloud my judgement.

I have issues ahead with my brother that i will have to deal with along with my parents relocating..lots of time flexibility..

I'm currently non-exempt and I'm wondering if I can ask to be exempt. that would be a huge help since I won't be working the OT that I usually do. I'm able to WFH sometimes and log those hrs to help make up my time. It would be a relief not to have to worry about that. I would still log the hrs due to necessity.

Also, the commute is very hard for me.

Maybe I could WFH one day a week. Maybe more!

Well at least it's a "good stress," right? Since some people have no job. But good luck with your decision!! Chat Icon

I would just be really up front and say "I am interested, but here are my concerns..." and take it from there Chat Icon

she knows exactly what my concerns are. She's secretly hoping I will move to Jersey...but that's not happening any time soon!

the commute is a big deal..also they originally told me that I am topped out for my position salary wise and I would not be getting any salary increases. They give bonuses but that's discretionary.
