cathy,

You are not butting in at all infact I started to feel like I was monopolizing KAW with my own brand of advice and thoughts while patiently waiting for others to chime in with their wisdom.

Quote:

but I work with a guy who's been in this type of position for five years. The perks are great and thus the reason he won't leave nor try to get a permanent position any place else. He IS told year after year different excuses, but contintues to stay with no job security. I don't quite understand it myself, for some reason he thinks he's going to become a permanent employee when I've seen other people with less seniority become permanent.




Of course there are people who would and do keep such jobs will they stay there forever? It's the same as renting property in my eyes...some people rent the same darn house or apartment for decades and in the end they've payed the morgage but have no claim to the property. raw deal if ya asked me but then I suppose if you ask such a renter if they are happy with the sit they may not mind and find positives in it.

I'm not expecting KAW to feel about things the way I do...I'm simply asking him to question job satisfaction instead of the constant worry over CAWs satisfaction. That is not to say that he shouldn't consider her feelings...it just means that sometimes he needs to come first.

But then again he's riding a good wave right now so there is no need to consider a two week notice...but at some point in time will he not face burn out with the constant flux?
