You are employed and have a managerial position but do not receive the commensurate salary. But money is not everything. You better think twice or more times. Is there no progress in your present company? Call centers offer attractive salaries but it may take time and much effort until you can occupy a managerial position. Evaluate the pros and cons very well and I hope that you would be able to arrive at the right decision. May God bless you.

Money is not everything.. but my kids are. I am a single parent of two, I hardly make ends meet. The company I am working with now is fast growing, as it grows I have more responsibilities but still receive the same. If I want to make more money, its because I have to give evrything I can to my kids. I hope im doing the right thing. Thanks...

I must congratulate you for being not scared to change. Yes, I think your move is good if it does help you financially. Being contented is also good, but in this hard times, you should not only think of yourself but also think of helping in your family's finances.
I hope switching to a much higher compensation will help you sustain your financial side but won't somehow compromise your well being.

To me on the idea of switching jobs is better when you have one job. Make sure you have the other job before you quit the other one. Make sure that you give a two week notice because what if that jobs turns out not to be what you want and then what. Dont leave a job on a bad reputation. So that you can get a good reference. Do what you got to do!
