didn't realize the jump from french fries station manager to burger station manager was that lucrative.

No offense, but your evaluation of your importance is negligible. Do you know anyone that works at company B? Their opinion alone might be enough to sway your decision.

This is why we need picks of the wife. Maybe they are keeping you because she is hotter than the other two and livens up the Christmas Party.
You got to think of all angles here.

Yes. Someone that works there already might tell you to run for the hills. On the other hand, you might be more inclined to take the offer if they have company crawfish boils every weekend.

It's like the Monty Hall Problem, just like I said and you guys didn't listen.
The Doors are Companies.
One door is a Goat.
Company A is your job. Company B is your prospective job. Company C is another job.
Get it?

the guy that reached out was a guy i did business with...sold him a dog when my bitch whelped last cycle...he had my contact info in his phone and so Linked In does this thing where it will try and get you to connect with people in your google contacts or whatever...he looked me up after being prompted and lo and behold..we work in the same field...he saw my profile and shot me an email...he loves the company...

Take the job and sell it the truck. Do not stay at a job you can't afford to keep because it's close to your house. That's the kind of thinking that makes broke people have kids and get a mortgage they're stuck in before they've got their stuff straight.
This might need to another job for more money. And with any luck you might be able to afford your kids one day.

Every recruiter does. The key question would be why are they looking to hire you. New position due to growth? Natural attrition in the position? Key indicators of what you may be in line for. I myself could not pull the trigger on a new job if my current job was 10 minutes from home. But that's just me.

Tell your current job you have another offer and you need a 20% raise.
Posted on 10/24/14 at 1:21 pm to SthGADawg
I took a $18,000 (a yr) raise and changed jobs five years ago after putting 8 good years with prior company.
New company had a massive lay off 18 months in and guess who got it.
I still haven't recovered back to my original salary, so watch it.
I've done the commute too in DFW, it sucks. You will wear out your vehicle, pay a ton in gas tolls etc Missed half of my son's baseball season one year and was stressed as a MoFo

you post like you are drunk right now...i get what you are saying though...and you can kiss my arse...im stuck in my mortgage because of the economy and the market...not because i cant afford it...i dont live beyond my means but desire to be a little more comfortable and be saving more for the future...you are a fricking moron...
Posted on 10/24/14 at 1:25 pm to Black n Gold
he is a sales guy...not a recruiter...i would say that the position is due to growth...they are garnering contracts at a faster rate than they can sustain with the personnel they have...my field is not flooded and good knowledgable guys with experience are rare...i do not really want to leave a job that i am close to either but trying to figure out if the juice will be worth the squeeze...

Pretty extreme case, but good advise. I would not tell your current employer about the 20% increase in potential pay if you don't think they'll match it. They will probably just back away from the table and tell you good luck. If you think they would match 10%, then tell them that number.
