Bad advice to previous poster

[Supe]

Of course. But be sure to tell your current boss to F himself, and burn all possible bridges before departure. I mean, once you're gone, who needs them, right? Don't actually apply for the other position until after you've left your current role, though. Don't want to be perceived as "unavailable."

About to leave during rush hour. What's the secret to circumventing traffic?

 

[blybrook PE]

Buy an emergency light & siren assembly from Galls. Install and utilize whenever stuck in traffic. Be sure to get the same color that the local PD / Fire Department utilizes. Also get a scanner installed so you can listen for the cops coming after you. When in traffic, activate the lights / siren / scanner and floor it! Be sure to have enough fuel so you can outrun anyone attempting to catch you.
