Company Offers Employee Double Their Salary To Move Into Their Hotel For 6 Months, Employee Hesitates To Accept: ‘they Don’t Want To Give Me A Management Title’

We all dreamed of living the suite life like Zack & Cody, and this employee can actually make that dream come true.

As kids, living in a hotel sounded like the coolest thing you could possibly do. Every morning, you wake up and go to the breakfast buffet to have all the pancakes you could along with countless of other delicious options. You didn't have to worry about making your bed or cleaning your room; there is a whole staff to do that for you while you're at school. And upon your return "home", you jump into the pool and do your homework while sipping on a nice milkshake you put on your room tab.

If we're being honest, this kind of life doesn't sound so bad even as adults. We know we would probably grow sick of this routine at some point, but we wouldn't say no to a funded extended stay at a nice hotel and give this lifestyle a try.

When something similar was offered to this employee, however, they were hesitant to accept. Not because they were not excited about the pancakes for breakfast or the pool, but because they weren't sure if this decision would actually move them further in their career. The offer they got was to move into one of their company's hotels for 6 months and supervise its operation. They accomodation would be free, and the employee would get double their salary to help rebuild the hotel's business. Sounds great so far, right?

The big downside, according to the employee, is that their title would not change, so they would not have "manager" on their resume, at least not officially. The fact that the company expects management-level work without the title rubs the employee the wrong way, and they are not sure if this opportunity is worth the career risk.
