Dear Tom:

I would like to understand:

1. If you take the six month position you are giving up your current position and will not be able to return to it after the six months, if you so choose?

2. If you take the six month position, will you be learning new skills and experience that will help you to advance further in the current company (or elsewhere, if you change employers), is it a growth opportunity?

3. Is the extra commute involving taking a train every day, or driving? How much longer will your commute be than it is now?
