Just a followup to an earlier post, Career.
When I told my boss (yes, he knows I’m looking to leave and he understands) about the rejection from the statuory board, his immediate reply was that they probably alredy have a candidate in mind to fill the position. The ads were just paper-play. I didn’t believe him, until a friend of mine told me the same thing. Similarly, it was friend’s immediate reply. This friend is working in another statuory board, and he says such things were common.
Anyway, checked with a friend holding a position one step senior to the position I was applying for. His pay isn’t a lot better then my current one, so if I had gotten the job, the pay would be about the same as mine now and I’ll be working doubly hard. The only advantage is better career prospects.
In any case, AEG and I are whipping up some business plans and we want to see them through. More on those as they form up.
