WTF? Old Boss wants to know if I like my new job?

[Admin]

Fam, am I trippin'? I'm sitting at my desk and the phone rings, It's my old boss. I left there about 2 months ago. It's the same company but a different department. He wanted to assist me with a Outlook Calendar issue I was having, but instead of emailing me, he called.

Okay, after he helps me with the issue, he switches gears and says:

"So, how do you like it over there?"
"Is the grass greener or turning brown?"
"We miss you over here"

Fam, all thru this, I was trying to be nice and cordial.....he called me at my desk, so he knew I was at work and not on my cellphone.

Fam, this was awkward for a nigga! No! I do not wanna go back to the old gig. There are pros and cons to both jobs, but I made he right choice in leaving. I did not tell it to dude like that, but if you are a manager, why in the HELL would you call a former employee and ask that shyt on he job at 4pm?

Your thoughts?

Holla
PS: I think that fool is crazy!

well...

for some....

the grass being BROWN on the other side...

they would have seized his opening to jump back in to maybe a better situation...

now that the absence of you has grown...fonder to them.

they are probably prepared to make u a SWEET deal...

Ditto, they want you back...

Ditto, they want you back...
We miss you?
He probably does just want you back to work for them.

Or...
Old boy just saw Brokeback Mountain
and figured out he has a crush on you.

Better hope it's the first thing!

If you go back to your old gig, remember you are in the better position to negociate. You should have a lot of confidence and take nothing less than a 10% bump in compensation & a signing bonus.
