Income - Not Potential
24 January 2004
Tim Bray has found that merely dropping a hint that you might be considering a job or career change brings the opportunists out of the woodwork. Never do they have an offer of immediate employment, income or a match of work to your experience.
Instead, they’re offering a ”chance” to realize your dreams. Emphasize ”chance,” because it usually means something like, ”if you’ll do all of these things for me, look what ”might” happen to you, your career and your income!”
