No, I'm not. I'm not built that way. I always have this plan of staying until my kids are in college, and honestly, I realize I can do more. Most places, I see what my boss does, and I think, "I can do that" and then someone offers me the opportunity to do it and I do. I was at an interview a few months ago, and VP asked me how I'm going to offer assurances I'm not going to leave in a few years for a better opportunity. I just plainly told him, I'm not going to offer anything like that. I said if that's the type person he wants, someone that will sit there until retirement doing the same thing, hire someone else.
- breakpointalpha 4y agoWhat a joke of a question! I would be very tempted to ask the same of this VP: "What assurances are you going to offer that I won't be laid off, fired, or 'let go' in a few years?" I'd never accept a job offer that required a multi-year commitment without some kind of contract and a large pay package too!
