Just settled down back after a week and an offer for a large pay increase in another role with newer tech comes along.

Should you stab your friends at the old role in the back and leave ASAP for fresher fields?

This role you have returned to:

Have you agreed a contract?
Have you signed a contract?
What is your 'notice' period?

Once again (for the second time this week ), you should exercise your substitution clause (you do have one don't you?), sub the old role out and take the new one and make even more money.

FTFY. People at work are not your friends. Two months after leaving you will not give a toss about most of them.
