<prompt> Human: Hello. Ive lurked here quite a bit. I never thought I would make a post here. Ive come across great advice in the past so I thought I might ask for some adviceSo today I was essentially let go. I work in a hotel as a manager. They hired a new manager to replace me, but wanted me to stay. They offered me a supervisor position at around 60 of my current salary. I dont want to make a hasty decision based on emotion. More info:- I told them what I would need to stay, they will have to discuss with corporate. Is it even reasonable to stay as a demoted manager? Their offer would barely cover the cost of living, my expressed needs are most likely too high.- Some money is better than no money. Do I take their offer until I find something better? - Another salaried management position will open up at the end of the year, or soon. It would be close to the amount I am currently making. Its not a position Im guaranteed though. Do I shoot for this? It doesnt seem smart to count on something like that, though it was proposed to me as a long term solution. - Temporary unemployment?- I have 80 hours of PTO that will be liquidated- With the PTO pay, i would have around two months of living expenses readyLast I need to express how difficult it would be to go back to work under these circumstances even if they matched what I asked for. But I want to make the financially correct decision.Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!  <response>: Is it even reasonable to stay as a demoted manager? Temporarily.1. Start looking for a new job ASAP.2. Haggle some, but dont quit. It might take time to find a new job.3. Dont burn your bridges.4. Dont spend the PTO liquidation on hookers and blow.
