Well
it’s official now – I have officially been offered the new position. They still
haven’t decided exactly what the job title will be – I have a horrible feeling
they’ll be letting me choose the wording myself in a greasing-the-ego
management move – but they have said it’s me they want. Definitely, this time. By
way of apology for ‘messing me about’, they tell me they are increasing the
monetary offer way above its original amount.
They’ve
found me an extra £500 a year.
That’s
less than a tenner a week. Thanks guys, I feel so much better now…
I’ve
asked for the weekend to think about it and discuss it with my wife. We have
our first child on the way, after all, so I want to make sure that any changes
to my work life aren’t going to impact on affairs at home. They shouldn’t, but
they don’t know that, so it’s nice to mention it and use it as a bargaining
tool.
I
genuinely have no idea how I feel about it or what I am going to do. A weekend
of conversation, soul-searching and number-crunching awaits me I feel, as I try
and reach some kind of decision within the next 48 hours or so.
But
for now – some distraction is needed, so I’m going to spend the next 2 hours
out of that 48 watching the film ‘Moonlight’
