ozleicester Posted 15 June 2011 Posted 15 June 2011 But.... you had to quit your job to get it. What would you do... and if you took it, what would you do with the money? Damn it...sign someone Sven or i guarantee to keep posting stupid fooking topics!!!
MikeyT Posted 15 June 2011 Posted 15 June 2011 Is this a hypothetical question or has someone actually offered you 20k?
potter3 Posted 15 June 2011 Posted 15 June 2011 Considering it'd take me about 2 years to earn that in my current job, then hell yes.
shailen Posted 15 June 2011 Posted 15 June 2011 20k isnt enough to get a person out of work! The opp cost of quitting work may be greater than 20k ( lost salary of not working/finding a new job), but if i was guaranteed 20k and a job i would spend it on a corporate box at the walkers.... joke, i would probs spend it on improvements around the house, holidays maybe a car...dunno!
Zingari Posted 15 June 2011 Posted 15 June 2011 pay off the mortgage and look for another job is my mundane answer
FoxesAreBlue Posted 15 June 2011 Posted 15 June 2011 pay off the mortgage and look for another job is my mundane answer Same here mate
DB11 Posted 15 June 2011 Posted 15 June 2011 Seeing as I'm only 18 in a part time job, then yes! And straight away look for another job But if it was in a few years time after I've graduated and I was in the job I wanted to be in, then no, probably not
ScouseFox Posted 15 June 2011 Posted 15 June 2011 Depends on the job, surely? If you were Alan Sugar then no, if you were the local milkman getting minimum wage, then yes. And as a student, yes.
jonthefox Posted 15 June 2011 Posted 15 June 2011 it would take me a year to get that. And what with the current job situation, i'd tell them knackers.
Jackirius Posted 15 June 2011 Posted 15 June 2011 It depends how much you are earning, I would take the money and spend it on the best god damn gap year ever.
stix Posted 15 June 2011 Posted 15 June 2011 We need more info Oz..... How long has 'said person' been there? How much is their salary? What industry is their position in? How old is 'said person'? Is 'said industry' in a healthy state? Hypothetically though, in my current situation......absolutely yes. Big fat holiday over the summer and worry about sorting something out when i get back.

Big fat holiday over the summer and worry about sorting something out when i get back. The question explains all ... if someone offered YOU...? No hidden agendas.... just a question to make us think about what we value etc.
gazfox9 Posted 15 June 2011 Posted 15 June 2011 I'd say thank you kindly, but, its a no from me. think i'd need another 0 on the end too!
StanSP Posted 15 June 2011 Posted 15 June 2011 I'd take it. I have 2 jobs so would I lose both though ? It would pay off some of my uni debt, and I'm pretty confident that I could find another job straight away.
The Doctor Posted 15 June 2011 Posted 15 June 2011 Yes, mainly because at the moment i'm an unemployed student so i wouldn't be losing any income at present.
One Arm Babba Posted 15 June 2011 Posted 15 June 2011 i'd snap their hand off.... but thats because i'm being made redundant anyway. Not getting £20,000 though Probably hire 20 £1,000 a go hookers and get a bit of train action going.
Wymsey Posted 15 June 2011 Posted 15 June 2011 Divide it all between my family. They do so much for me.
