Belegon said:okay... so, they basically are saying "We'll take a chance on you. We recognize that you are more interested in security and in being on a team than you are in being an independent agent. But you have other qualities that we like, so we are willing to risk 6-8 months of paying you on the chance that you can get past the roadblocks. If you fail, we'll write it off and move on."
and I'm saying, "I know they're making a bad decision. That's not where I'm going long term and I know it. I will fail because my heart is not in sales. But... they're offering me a way to defer the decision and survive for 6-8 months."
Can it actually be a positive to turn down a good job with a good firm? Or do I accept it, knowing I'll be sorry later but wanting the temporary relief from being unemployed?
don't ask me, but you can come and sit in my 'existentially confuddled about careers and jobs' corner with me. We hug our knees and rock back and forwards while weeping hysterical tears over bank statements and comfort eating cake.
