My husband and I are struggling with our finances at the moment. Yesterday my husband was called in to see the manager where he works. The manager told him that a new role in the company had came up which is the same hours but �200.00 a month more.He offered the job to my husband and he jumped at it. The problem is this, when he came out of the office a friend of his was waiting outside he said that he had just been sacked from his role and demoted, it turns out that my husband has been given his friends job. Now he just dont know wether to take it or not. His friend was dismissed because he refused to put in any overtime.
I've told him to take it because we have three children and are really really struggling with money, where his mate lives at home with his parents and has no children. My question is what would you do if you were in my husbands situation?

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.If he is a good friend of your husband's perhaps he could have a word with him and explain that he has three children to support. If he is a real friend he will understand. Maybe not at first but if he thinks about it reallistically he may come round.
My husband was made redundant three weeks ago so I know how you feel. Good luck.

The two things are not even vaguely related actually when you think about it. Your husband's friend was sacked because he wouldn't do what they required of him. After that they were always going to need a replacement... and in this instant it's your husband. See it as a bit of well needed good luck. If your husband doesn't take the job then someone else will, it won't change anything for his friend, so just take the job and enjoy the extra money.
Thankyou for all your replies, they have helped alot. I have sat down with my husband this afternoon and i've shown him all your answers. We have had a good chat and hes decided that he is going to take the job. So a really big thankyou as I think that you may have stopped him feeling so guilty about it.
