My Hubby did, sort of. When asked by his boss if he wanted to enter the management training program, with 10 – 20 hours more work every week, he declined, even though it would have been a pay raise. He just didn’t want to devote that much time to the company.
It turned out to be a good thing, in the long run. When a new company bought them out, the new owners let the middle management people go, but Hubby stayed.
