Omar and Sari Work as Designers at Hologram Marketing

question 107

Multiple Choice

Omar and Sari work as designers at Hologram Marketing. Recently, Sari's husband got a new job in a city fifty miles away, and they have decided to move there. Sari already has a new job lined up that pays about the same as her current one and has a better benefits package, but she is sad about leaving because she has made so many close friends during her fifteen years at Hologram. Omar is relatively new to the company, having just completed his design degree a few months ago. He completed an internship while in school, but Hologram was the first agency to make him a job offer. Sari tells him she has considered turning down the job offer in the new city and commuting to Hologram instead. She then asks Omar how he feels about working at Hologram. How would Omar most likely respond?

• A) "I'm just thrilled to have any job, even if it's not my ideal in the long run. The job market is terrible right now."
• B) "Even though the pay isn't what I hoped for, I can apply for a raise in six months. Most companies make you wait a year."
• C) "You should take the new job. I like it here, but the salary's not all that great. If I got a better offer, I'd leave in a heartbeat."
• D) "It's a great offer, but I'd never leave unless I had to. Even though I haven't been here as long as you, I felt welcomed right away."
• E) "I think if you decide to take that other job, I will probably leave as well. Hologram is great, but I'm sure there's something else out there for me."
