A Job Problem
Hey, Dan! I may get a promotion at work. I may become department
head! That sounds good, but there is a problem.
Carol -- my coworker and very good friend -- told me something in
confidence a couple of months ago: the current department head is going
to retire, and she wants his job.
Well, the vice-president of the company offered ME the job last Friday. He
didnt say anything to Carol or to anyone else. He wants me as department
head. It was a big surprise to me. Carol does not know about this!
If I tell Carol about the offer, she might be angry.
If I dont tell Carol about the offer, she will be angry for sure.
If I accept this job, Carol will be very upset,
If I dont accept the job, I will be very upset.
If I dont accept the job, the vice-president wont ask Carol anyway.
What will I do? What is the right thing to do?
