My old boss (same company) emailed me this afternoon and wants me to call him. I'm 99% certain he wants me to come back to work for him. I'm not sure what I want to do. Will update later this afternoon, still on the conference call for my current job!
Ok, so I was right. He wants me to come back. He's offering a promotion to a large metro area, but it would mean going back on the road full time. I just don't see myself doing that with a 5 month old at home? The only way it would work is if I negotiated the promotion AND a flexible work week/reduced travel. I'll have to talk to my H. I need to talk to some former coworkers who are still in that dept, too. I don't know. I'm feeling bored in my current job, but this doesn't sound like the ideal solution.
Good problem to have but I can only imagine what a difficult decision this would be, especially with a baby. Prayers that you can negotiate something that is realistic for you and your family if that's the path you choose. And congrats- that has to feel good to know your hard work is appreciated and recognized!
That sounds awesome and hard to decide all mixed together. Would the promotion allow your H to stay home so you wouldn't have to feel as bad about all the travel?
