Week 8 – Compensation

When thinking about what to write about when thinking about compensation and certain behaviors I thought about my dad’s career journey. My dad has worked for many companies but only a few different industries along the way. When I was little he would travel all the time, he’s always been in sales.

Not only did he travel a lot for work but we would move whenever he would get a better offer. On our first move, my family was not happy, I had to leave my friends and so did my mom, as well as her job. But it was in the best interest of our family and my dad’s happiness, and he was making more money. Luckily another thing was that we were moving closer to the rest family as well.

My dad has always had our family’s best interest in his heart but also sets amazing goals for himself and continues to set them. There are many things connecting this to our course material. What I respect most about my dad’s decision to switch jobs is that he usually does it when he’s unhappy not just for the money.
