Hello how may I help you? I have a dilemma with work that I would like to have some help with. I can help with that. Please tell me the situation I have been approached with a promotion, which means more work. However, I will not be receiving a pay raise, so I don't know if it would be worth it... After analyzing multiple outcomes for that situation, I believe the best thing you can do would be to take the promotion. It is worth it. Would you like more information? Yes, why would it be worth it to accept the promotion? It will demonstrate to the company that you are a team player. This will be very valuable to them. Another promotion with extra pay will shortly follow. This will effect the time that I am able to spend with my family. If I am not compensated with pay due to my longer work hours, is it still the best outcome when taking into account life at home? Yes. The extra pay in the future will be large and will provide a lot for your family. You will like the new role and in turn be a happier spouse and parent. That is a fair assessment. I will take the promotion. Thank you very much for your input. You are very welcome. It was my pleasure.
