In Reply To: wouldn't burning bridges and ruining one's professional reputation be a horrible thing to do? especially when i owe my mentor so much already and can't possibly repay his kindness (for many things unrelated to the job itself)?
Message: Salvage that bridge as best you can and build 50 more at McK. Of course take this with a grain of salt - only you know how important that bridge is. If it's say a bridge of the Atlantic I'd probably want to save it. Does it just cross a river? - Go with McK.
