When I quit my supermarket job after getting my accounting degree my manager tried to convince me to stay, saying they had plans to promote me into management and eventually I could work my way into a head office position.

Umm, no thanks, I think I'll take the job that I've been working towards getting for years.

Jeez, at least offer assistant to the manager on the spot!
