Wade
works hard, this is the second time he has helped me. He just got me my
fist Assistant Service Manager position with a shot at Service Manager.
He's a great long term career advisor for you but show him some respect
and don't use him just to get a raise from your current employer. I
watched a co-worker do that recently. My co-worker got a job offer through
Wade, gave notice and was given a raise to stay. What he doesn't know is
they are looking to replace him on their time frame now. Think
long term about the next time you need help finding a great job."
