Is there ever a good time to leave a show mid-season? I just got an offer that pays significantly more but it would mean leaving my current team halfway through the run. I really like them, and I don’t want to burn bridges… but this other gig could be a huge step forward. What would you do: stay loyal, or take the leap?

Your career comes first — shows come and go, and loyalty doesn’t pay rent. They’d replace you in a day if you broke your leg.

Offers like that, for me at least, don’t come around a lot, so I would be putting myself first. I think the greatest thing you can do is let them know asap once everything is official, and do what you can for an easy transition.

I’ve seen this happen a few times and people always take the the other gig. If they value your skills then they would understand that this is a massive opportunity for you. If they are a nice team then they would understand- you got to think about your career first.

I once asked a colleague at a radio company how much he's paid monthly, and he outright refused to tell me. In fact, he found it very odd that I asked. I later learned that he was making double my salary. I know it's not an employee's job to fix pay inequity by sharing their salary figures, but I'm still of the opinion that it helps uncover pay gaps. But do you think it's wise to do so at the risk of damaging your work environment or the whole thing backfiring on you? Thoughts are welcome.
