    I guess it depends on your situation regarding whether the income is essential to paying the bills. I think the different types of work will add to your skill level and can only help on your CV.

        In any case, I decided to take the role. I don't think I'd deal with hunger well.

                Frig's sake wish you PMs would stop taking all the PMO support roles!!!! It's hard enough between all us legit project lackys without you lot taking a step down.

                Go and fight with Programme Manager's for their jobs and get to do even less work for twice the money

                  If only, we PM's are 10 a penny these days.

                  As for formatting your CV all well and good, but a job title is a job title and you can spin your CV how you like, if does get difficult when applying for roles if you keep switching around.

                    Is PM a proper job then? I thought it was a role created for people who juggle a few spreadsheets around and then take credit for the work done by someone else? :-)

                    BTW. I'd clean the tulipters if the money was right.
