Taking a low paid job was the biggest mistake I ever made, I was manager of a company responsible for 12 branches in the north of england, when Thatchers policies hit in the mid eighties I was made redundant and true to the way I was brought up I took a low paid job rather than have no job at all.
The problem was that from then on I was looked upon as not really right for new management positions because of my now lowly status.
Not fair? You bet it isn't. Does it happen? You bet it does.
I would have been better off giving prospective employers some bullshit like "I've been taking a rest to consider my options"
