Hi Joe,

I hope you can give me some advice. This week I received a job offer and I need to make a decision for or against the new job soon. I have been in my current position for the last 3 years and my motives to change are:

1. I don’t see I can improve further in my current job

2. No option for further promotion

3. Reduce stress and work load which is not related to the job, but to the work environment.

I work with a large logistics company with several business units. Currently, I am with the Express Service Unit. The new job will be in a different business unit (Parcel). The position and pay are similar to the current ones. Probably, the new job will come along with more biz travels. I wonder if the new job would reveal more options for me or will it only mean going out of the frying pan into the fire. I am also afraid that if I don’t change my job the stress and work load will increase. I feel stressed as I am struggling with my boss, colleagues and forces in my projects. Probably, it is me and I need to change my approach and attitude. Maybe it’s the wrong way to think that things will become better if I change my work environment. ,p> Could you give me some advice if it would be better to stay or to change my job? My DOB is 22:45, 11-August-1974. I appreciate your help and will reward it by donating to a charity of your choice. Thanks a lot!

Cheers, Kami

Dear Kami, According to your chart, at the moment, you are not ready for a change. You will be ready by 2012. Shortly after Feb. For now, you need to improve your skills. This is a period of learning. Now go an acquire a set of new skills. You have not been improving yourself lately and as a result, will not be able to land better job positions.

There should be 2 friends who are advising you right now, supporting you along the way. Listen to their advise and take action to make improvements.

Warm Regards, JY
