I was offered my old job back for nearly twice the gross figure that I made before.

The way I see it, you were being underpaid :-) Otherwise they wouldn't offer you twice as much as you made before.

Back in the place I was before, when I said I was leaving, they didn't made me an offer; instead, they asked me to tell them how much I wanted to make and told me they would give me that figure. Of course, the fact that they had been telling me they couldn't pay me more for so long and then the sudden change made me even more decided about leaving than I was before...

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
