Would you take a new job for lesser pay?

It has crossed my mind recently. Especially if there is a higher ceiling at a new place?

I did this 7 years ago. Took a pretty substantial hit. And then got my pay reduced further due to the recession. Then ended up being part of a group that bought out the owner. So I am doing much better now. But I was sweating for a year or so.

 

I am sure it's a crapshoot, though.

Sounds promising. As long as the boss in your new job lives up to his end of the bargain. That doesn't always happen. As I've discovered the hard way.

 

Good luck, man!

I would consider it if I could make the pay up fairly quickly. I took a 22k paycut before I had kids to work where I'm working now. I've since made that up, but it took 6 years to do so. I couldn't do that now with two kids, no way.

I would if I could eliminate some personal financial dead weight.

I just found out today that in a month my job is being eliminated. I guess the good news with that is that I will be reassigned to another department. It's nice to know that I will have the security blanket of continued employment rather than an impending job loss. That being said, I'm not too fired up with the tasks/responsibilities of new position.

I have a different situation. I was laid off in June due to outsourcing my job. I think I'm about to lock down a job working from home making about 5k more than I was making before I was laid off.

 

I'll take it.

I was considering this yesterday when I saw a job open up where I use to work. Financially and career wise its not a good move, but it fits more in line with what I enjoy.

[sd'sker]

if you can afford it and it means a better quality of life for you and your family, i would.

 

it is not what you make, but what you spend.

[strigori]

I am hoping to make that kind of move in the somewhat near future. Pay cut now, for what should be more in the future, plus right now I wouldn't p*** on my company's management right now if they were on fire.

No. If there is a higher ceiling, make them prove it with a pay raise immediately. If they won't, the ceiling is lower.

In order to make ends meet, just stop buying the $100 hookers and go for the $10 ones. That's a big savings if you use them all the time.

How can we find 10 dollar hookers? I might consider that, if it is possible. Sounds cheaper than marriage or dates.
