Holy Shit. I just got offered a C.O.O. position.
Just got off the phone. That would mean not posting on DU for awhile.
So, I'm torn.

2. Thanks
I don't know if they pay enough; they said they "can work it out." This is Board of Directorspeak for "take it or leave it"

21. yes.
I'm running a subset of a larger company, which has the CEO. It's a Country Club, with a restaurant and banquet facilities, owned by a larger entity, all with stockholders and crap.
More as this story develops. Film at eleven.

13. Assuming COO doesn't mean "Crazy Ornery Obstructionist" I'd say take it.
You can always join us COOs later. We aren't going anywhere. I mean, anywhere. Ever. :cry:

17. Congratulations!
Just curious. Do you have to leave DU because of time constraints or because you are not allowed, by your employer, to participate in political message boards?

I'll miss you if you go, but I'm glad you got such an increase in pay. That matches my decrease since 2001, btw!
