"They had a couple of offers -- another one involved more work and less pay"

Just out of curiosity, what was the reasoning behind that? Was it something that could have ended up being a good position, or was it a hand-wavy type thing?

He heard my concerns about work/life balance and family issues, and thought "10 months on, 2 months off to go see family; you won't be a salaryman anymore, so material conditions will worsen as a matter of course" would be among the better alternatives to the company losing me.

I had more compelling options.
