I feel you on that breh..I faxed in my signed offer letter yesterday afternoon. The one last thing to make it official is for some reason they need to verify that im currently employed :dahell:..so they have to talk to either my direct manager or somebody in a HR role..my direct manager is a big hell no so I gave them the number to a HR rep..now im like :lupe: waiting for them to confirm the shyt before I go hand in my 2 week notice to my manager today...why do they need to confirm im currently employed anyways?

Not a big deal, most companies have an "employment verification" hotline. Insurance and mortgage companies request that info all the time.

An employee's salary information is confidential. Price fixing for labor is also illegal.

Congrats breh

This is either going to be the best week of my professional career, or the worst..I'm nervous brehs :lupe:

I seriously think if I get this offer from my jobs competitor and I submit my two weeks notice after committing to being relocated to Jacksonville, they just might push me out the window :damn:

As long as you give your two weeks, you're good. Don't feel bad about taking an opportunity that works for you. I'm sure if your job had to be cut because it worked best for the company, they'd have no problem calling you into the office and telling you to pack your shyt...and you'd be lucky if they gave you two weeks.

fukk companies. they don't have loyalty to you, so don't have loyalty to them. You can still be a good employee with that attitude.

That's what I'm trying to keep in the back of my mid. I'm telling myself if they had to cut me they would do it with no hesitation, so I'm trying to stay in that mindset. Still feeling slick bad because everyone in Jacksonville is so excited for my arrival lol.

If you feel right doing so, lie to them and say some family shyt came up and you need to be in ATL. This offer came through so you feel right taking it because you can't really be away from home now. :manny:

I was talking to this woman over the weekend and she said they extended an offer to this guy and he used that offer to get this other company to hire him sooner. The lady was like "Oh well it happens, the other company was closer to home and had less travel"

This is what I was going to do :guilty:

"Having some issues at home so I need to travel back" :guilty:

But then I kinda felt like I could possibly to part-time/side contract work for the company I work for now and just stack even more if they want to until they have a chance to hire someone else :manny:

I get the oddest invitation request on LinkedIN. I've had Coli/SOHH members pop-up in people I may know and random quest from people I haven't meet but frequent similar places :merchant:

The last 2 months I've been super bored at work, except for maybe 2 instances where I work a 60 hour week.

I had like 5 billable hours last week. :patrice:

It can't hurt to ask. The worse they could say is no and I wouldn't mention until they hire someone else. Just give them specifics of projects you'd be working on and some due dates. You probably could get more done at home than in the office anyway.
