The right thing to do

September 20, 2012 forum topics
I just accepted a position as fulltime Photographer for a TV station in TX. I’d been laid off for many yrs following the recession. I am moving to TX this next week.

Wouldn’t you know it, but the other day, I was sent an email from a video production studio in DFW area about a phone interview for a position I applied too after the Photographer position.
They seemed interested, plus my goal is to move to the DFW area permanently.

Since I just accepted this Photographer position, I’ve known other’s who have accepted a position, but then bailed to another one that is better. The station I’m going too will be paying for some of my expenses and a hotel room once I get there.

I do know this Photographer position will be only 1.5-2 hour away from DFW, so I know I want to move there, but this other position just came up…..I hate to say no, but want to honor my word to my initial offer as well……
