Quoted from Sparky


I will manage a fleet of machines, not people.



I think you know which one of the above is less hassle. They usually pay more to manage the human cargo, rightly so, because it takes at least a busload of faith to get by.

I will post on this later this afternoon. Like I said, the counter-offer I got is interesting. I have to decide between stability or ambition. My family is a factor in this. The new job would be more demanding time-wise...


Retiring soon...

If I can help...

Two years ago I bought a second clinic with my partener, we want to see if we can have 2, 3, 4, etc. The second one is for sell right now. Life is too short for me to have big ambition  and no more time...

So If you have enought money to live and be happy right now, take care with your decision.

I also realized that I'm one of the lucky to have  the kind of job I have, If I want to do more, i just have to work more. Most people I know have to work more for the same money!

Also every poeple is different, but don't choose only with your head, choose also with your hearth...

Good luck gino

Take the straight salary raise and stay away from the commission based job. The economy is sucking. Last thing you want is to have your income based on you making sales in a bad economy. Your better with 18% guaranteed of something than looking at sales to give you a potential 7% more, particularly in a bad economy. Commission based you could equally end up with a load of post holes.

Just to be sure I would investigate what happend to your predecessor in that sales position. If he got promoted out of it in a bad economy and now is the King of England maybe not so bad. If he hit the road then there is likely a reason that you may also encounter.

I'd take the commission; I have been commission my whole life and if I want more money I just work more. It took a while to get used to swings in pay but overall I have made way more than a straight salary position. If you work more on a salary job your effective wage goes down. More work = same pay on a salary job. More Work = more money on a commission job.

At any rate you will be making more and I can tell you that if the economy weakens more the government will put money towards infrastructure and your business will not be down for long.


Current Lineup:
Black Knight, Riverboat Gambler, Ripley's Believe it or Not, Flintstones, Orbitor 1, Wipe Out, Breakshot, The Simpsons Pinball Party, Fish Tales, Eight Ball and a 60 in 1 Cocktail.

Yeah sure. Don't listen to me. I never listen to my own advice because I end up sounding like my Dad so in rebellion I do the exact opposite.

What's the worst that can happen? I hear the food banks are still getting supplies.
