will you grab it?

Career wise and not a Job wise Why should I use my education for other people?

hi asliah No. I will NOT! Not because personally I would not want to. But because today, I am married, I love my wife a lot and she has a career too. I will not get into anything where she has to compromise in chasing her dreams. So in case there are options where she can pursue her career and there is a growth in her career too... I might consider. The next is my parents and as they are old, yes, extra money will help but then, would they allow me to reach my parents as and when I need to? I am sure NO. This is another reason which will have me to say NO to such an offer no matter how good it might be for me - if it is not good for me and my wife, definitely I am not into it.

Dear Asliah... I had been in that position too. There was this post in Singapore that matches my qualifications. However so, i decided not to take it due to the ff: a. Asliah... My parents are very old now and have weak hearts. Among us siblings in the family, my parents usually seek consolation with me because i am the most able to understand them and listen to them haha apart from the one having medical background who attends to them whenever they are ill. You may want to ask your friend how his parents are faring. If he thinks that his parents are very strong and still young, he may pursue that position. Like i said, my parents are oldie wobblies already, i dont want to have this guilt feeling of leaving them when they need me. b. Usually... Everything comes with a price. With that price comes sacrificing his sanity due to sadness of being away from friends and family. If that post gives him enough money to allow him to take a home leave quarterly or bimonthly, then go ahead. c. Does he really need the job? One ground for considering this is his position and status of his family. If his family is broke and needed the money to pay some mortgages, then thats a go! I hope this helps Asliah. Jobs abroad are so tempting but the price for it is just... in my case, is not worth it.

If I were given the opportunity as with your friend, I will also be grabbing it. It's really hard to earn more here in our country. We're getting older but our status in life remains the same. Our earnings here is doubled or tripled when you go abroad, and I'm just talking about a month's pay. how much more if you have other side lines there, you will surely be rich when you get back in your country.

Hi friend, i think your friend is interested in making more money, so he take this offer and go to abroad. I am not interested in going to abroad even though the salary is high. I have a cute and lovely family and don't have the ability to miss them, so i never take this kind of abroad opportunities and happy in doing my current job

If it is for a greener pasture then I'll go abroad. But of course, I would seek an approval first to my love ones if they really want me to go abroad. But If I'm only the one who will ask and decide, of course I'll go, for I am always wishing and aiming for a successful life and I think it is the best opportunity ever.

It depends on the difference of the income. If it's big, then I would prefer to go abroad, but if it's just a small difference, I'd rather stay.

If I am to choose, I think it all depends on the benefits it gives. If i know I can grow in my profession abroad, why not take it. However, I need to be careful going abroad is not all gold. Just like here in my country, there are also problems you may experience during your work. I I am not happy there I will not bother to leave. besides money is not eveything!

If the job opportunity pays higher than my current job, I'd grab that like a raging monkey. My salary isn't enough to pay the bills so I'd grab any opportunity I can just to keep up. I guess he made the right choice because I don't think anyone would take that if the salary he has now is more than enough.

It depends on a lot of circumstances. A person has to be emotionally prepared to be away from his family since homesickness is one the things why people working overseas go home with loose marbles. Working abroad means not only be working in a different environment but dealing with people with different cultures and if you're not able to adjust easily you'll be left out and be depressed eventually. The salary package could be high in our country's standard but we to have to realize that we'll be spending that money in the same country we earn it which mean that if it's just entry level salary then it means entry level kind of lifestyle or worse, you'll be forced to get other jobs just to supplement the income. In addition, the higher the salary the more expectation from you and therefore more hard work is expected. And of force, there's family.

yes, i would also do the same things, especially that i am still single and have less worries than anybody else. maybe, in the future my priority would change if i am married and have children cause i love to care to them personally than paying somebody to care for them. as much as possible i like my family to accompany me to my place of work. mean the country where i plan to work so i would not feel alone. in times of this economic recession, i would accept the idea of working overseas so i could help myself and family.

it will depend on how tempting the overseas work is. but being a mother, i will consider my husband and my son too. it is not easy working miles away from home. sometimes, it is better to just stay close to your family if you have a good paying and fulfilling job already. i think being a mother will affect all the decisions i will make because it is not just about me but my family especially my son's sake.

In my case money is not the only consideration. If there's an opportunity to go to another country especially if it's in London, Canada, Australia or the US and the job being offered is stable; I would leave my job here no matter how good it is. The reasons are, first, our country's economy is not doing so well, second, the environment is quite different, third, it's a new environment where i could start fresh and lastly, i want a place where i can be safe. I don't feel safe in our country anymore. And if given the opportunity i would really go somewhere else. I plan to send my son to a University in another country coz i think there's more opportunities waiting for him there than here.

If I have an opportunity, i will grab it because it is a change for me. It can make me expand my vision, have many opportunity to good job...

If I had been younger I would probably have done it. I travelled a lot when I was in my 20's and I also worked abroad. Today my situation is different. I am married, so I have to think about my husband, too. I have a house and I have many pets. I couldn't just leave my pets. I am involved in voluntary work as a language teacher and I don't want to leave that work. Another reason why my situation is different today is my grandmother. She is 86 and quite weak, her and I have always been very close and I don't want to leave her now, I want to stay here where I am able to visit her.

No, I would not leave my good job in my country to go away to work. They cannot offer me enough money to leave my home town to do that. I would not want to take the chance and do that just to find out that in time I might get fired and have to move back.

to me everything is dependent. sometimes there are really good deals on koio simply can not resist but should be considered reasonable if we do not accept too much risk and whether it is worth. but sometimes even to their risk can also have an effect. I currently have a job but I never left my country I can only do it if my family came with me! nice day!

If the offer is really good and if there is assurance that the job is really great why not.As long as he like it and assurance is there,go for it.Just make sure that it is legal and won't be victim of illegal recruiter that we see in some news.
