I'm serving notice period in TCS and my last day is in 2 weeks. I requested for pickup of laptop in the portal but I came to know that it will take time for pickup and I won't be available if they come late. So I decided to go to office and surrender the laptop as I'm in the location of office only. Is there a seperate request to be raised for surrender of laptop and how to cancel the existing request for pickup. Please guide.Tata Consultancy

any less money and I'd be making minimum wage.
Advertising IS my dream job.../:
Think it depends on whether you can afford to live on the new salary. I took a big pay cut to move to the US but it was worth it, as I'd always wanted to live here. It also depends on if you are likely to get quick progression where you can make your pay up. At the end of the day, if it's your dream job, job satisfaction is the main driver.
Agency life is my dream job, and I am taking a pay cut for it (I make less at an agency than if I was in house)
^ TF?!
Entertaining 65% cut starting over in another field. Don't know if it's a dream job but one I'm excited about trying my luck in. Will accept if they offer.
My dream job is to write for SNL. I wouldn't consider that to be a pay cut at all!
What's your dream job? Advertising already does not pay a lot...😅
None cause I took a pay cut for this very not dream job already. 😒
I would legit consider going back to junior though for Pentagram. Chance to learn again and ask dumb questions with no pressure when working with the greats. That's pretty much the only place I'd do that for though.
I wish I could share but kinda don't wanna spread the word and jinx it. I would love to do what I do now if it wasn't for fucked up hours and no real meaning behind output... Maybe I'll consider advertising again after at least a few years off/away from it. Totally over it now.
I'd only be able to pay my bills with the new job/pay cut. I don't have a partner. I live alone in NYC. I did bust my ass doing two extra years knowing I want out in order to be able to take a massive cut to start over. And in the first year, I'd still have an extremely cut budget allowed from my savings and no vacation trips, almost total shutdown of previous lifestyle. This is not a frivolous step or naive decision. Been planning it. Don't recommend attempting on a whim to anyone.

What field you going to Wunderman?
If I could flip houses and start slow but eventually know I'd make money, I'd take a $50k pay cut to do it.
