If you want to say "No" - always use a sentence to explain the issue and why you can't agree. Oh and never say "I dont care" always say "I dont mind" Avoid the sentence “No.” is SO distructive!

I never had a wake-up call moment reading your blog that made me decide to do the switch, but I still feel that your blog had something to do with it. Every time I read your posts, in my head I balance happiness at work versus the other benefits, such as pay and prestige. After a while, the scale invariably tipped towards happiness.
