You are having second thoughts so own that and say "Thanks, but no thanks." and keep looking and/or doing what ever it is you are doing. No, you're reading too much into it. :-) Even if they are bears to work for, there's lot of work to do that I'd like to do. Then, maybe I won't have a hard time getting a job next time. Thanks for your input. It is not often I hear from management types, especially at the VP level. Thanks!
