    Tell them you have other commitments during some of the off time and by accepting this promotion that you would need to give up the other commitments. Use it as a bargaining chip for a bigger pay raise to compensate?

    Overwatch doesn't have a 'qualed' check as far as I am aware.

    Good thoughts, I'm just struggling to come up with something I could frame as a commitment that wouldn't be able to be viewed as something that interferes with my work. I need to be available to come into the office on short notice when when working from home so it's a little difficult to come up with some responsibility or commitment that needs me to be home at varying times.

    You run a consulting business from home that requires you to be by the phone? Not too sure about that one.

    "As an adult, I value my quiet and comfortable workspace at home, it keeps me focused and I wouldn't want to give it up for less than $X/year. Sorry boss, money buys happiness, if you want me in the office twice the amount of hours, pay me. Otherwise, I'll continue to be as effective and valuable as I am now but without pants."

    I mean obviously you'd take out the snark, but I don't see the point in creating some elaborate lie when the truth is perfectly fine lol. Unless the "promotion" is a gambit to get you out the house where they think you're being unproductive in comparison to your office hours. I have no clue what you do for a living but its not out of the realm of possibility that this could be a problem given the volume of HITs you do. :dunno:

    GL friend.. if you get fired and need a couch to sleep on I'm sure @Hummingbirdee can accommodate haha.

    With overwatch, when I click start it shows it running but I get no results. If I click search all I get results. Does the normal start operation only show new hits or what am I not getting?
