Family Talk

Our hero expected an offer. Nothing came for nearly two weeks. He did not call his friend because we knew him and did not want to make a call with no answer. In the meanwhile he had discussed the issue with his wife. Crime and the level of security concerned them, but after researching on the Internet they had concluded that certainly there was an issue of security, things were not like Europe, but it was a manageable situation. On the other hand the wife had to leave her job. Therefore our hero’s compensation would be compared with both salaries received at home. In conclusion, the decision was that with the right offer they were willing to go for period up to three years. They would return home when their child would be 4 so it would not have any problems with school issues. They thought of it as a great opportunity to save some money. They decided not to tell their friends and families, until they had something concrete in their hands.
After a period of two weeks, the phone rang. It was the HR Director.
