Christmas Podding: Day 13 – Double Lunches, Double Job Offers, and Boxing Day Food 🎄

Video

Welcome back to the We Do Grotto, where today’s festive chat is all about navigating the big decisions – from Christmas lunches to job offers.

🎅 The Double Lunch Dilemma:

  • Two Christmas lunches? That’s a hard no for us – one is more than enough, especially with all the nibbles, cheese, and late-night snacks.
  • Boxing Day leftovers, though? Absolute heaven. Bubble and squeak, ham, eggs – we’re calling it now: Boxing Day food might actually beat Christmas Day.

🎅 The Double Job Offer Conundrum:
What if you’re faced with two job offers at once? Here’s how to navigate:

  • Know your priorities. Why were you looking for a new job in the first place? Flexibility, salary, location – focus on what matters most to you.
  • Trust your gut. If one role feels like the better fit, it probably is.
  • Don’t feel pressured. Just because you’ve got two offers doesn’t mean you have to choose one. If neither feels right, it’s OK to say no and wait for the right opportunity.

And for those struggling to choose between Heroes, Celebrations, and Quality Streets – just know you’re not alone.
