So here I am into my 4th month of my hiatus from the working world. I've finally got my pulse rate down. Completely de-stressed, dropped about 20 pounds, and am about a quarter way through writing a book

Then the phonecall comes on Friday.

Frankly and without sounding egotistical, I've made a name for myself over the last 15 years in the sales and consulting side of the computer industry, but I've found myself getting sick of how its become a price game instead of an expertise game.

Anyways back to the phone call. I'm shopping in safeways for some groceries when my cell phone rings, I look at the Ontario number and decide to answer it anyways.

A nice lady from a international human resources company is on the other end. She tells me that she's heard great things about me from various people, and she wants to talk about an opportunity with this HR firm. So I decide to chat with her (hey she sounds cute).

Anyways, I forward a updated personal profile to her, and she gets me to write one of thier profiling tests. I look at thier company website, and I'm blown away with thier approach to the industry that they're in.

She phones me back up and she starts talking money in vague numbers. Instead of low balling me, she completely high balls me, so I agree to talk to one of thier VP's that coming into town tommorrow to present me with an offer.

If I decide to accept it, I start right away and I fly out to Toronto for two months to learn thier culture, thier products and how to run thier Calgary Branch.

Its a dream job, everything I would have wanted in the past.


I would hate to lose this kind of opportunity.

What would you guys do?
