[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I had applied to the better job I wasn't working so I listed my availability as right now. In the meantime I got this little crappy job (basically equal to a min wage retail job)
They aren't asking me to leave with no notice but I will be the lead on a new team they are putting together. [b]I'm afraid if I am late to start it may undermine my authority with the people I will be leading...[/b]
Plus I hate the little crappy min wage job (it will be basically costing me $ to stay)[/quote]Sorry, but if I worked for you and you came late I would either think 1) you were really important at your last job and you had to wrap things up or 2) I wouldn't think about it at all.  My respect for your authority would have [i]nothing[/i] to do with whether you showed up the first week when I did.  OP, you do realize authority is based on a lot more personal qualities than whether you show up the first week, right?  I understand you're nervous about the new position but hang in there, you can do it!  Good luck![/quote]
