was almost beaten to death by 20 people, it was some gang fude, one of my friends punched some gang member in the face, because he bullied him some time ago
I didn't dodge the bullet, but give it that day, the moment I shot the first gang member, the others ran away (this was in europe and I was the only one armed)
That time I said no to Arthur Anderson when they were recruiting me hard - offering to fly VPs to me the next day (Sat) to convince me not to start a new job on Monday.
Possible bullet: May get made redundant rather than having to quit and find somewhere else - may get an easier out than just quitting.
So back when my career was absolute shit, there was this small tech group within the company. I had been on a few projects for them and they really kept trying to get me to join. I strongly considered it but I noticed a trend of the folks on the team being overworked and underappreciated... And I would have to relocate. I debated for a week and finally decided that my sister was about to have kids and I wanted to be involved. Fast forward like a month or two after I turned them down... Our company canned the entire group. I now have a really good position and am quite happy.
The grass isn't always greener and all that...
