grousing in progress

Sigh.. just heard my sup saying they may have something on in Hong Kong. And I was like "Me! I want to go!" then he was like.. "we need someone who can project manage and who can handle big projects.." zzzz... yah.. I know.. I lack experience.. but still.. hearing that.. makes me feel like... sian... my pride has been wounded.. I need band aid... and some dressing.. to close this gaping wound... nvm... nvm.. i have my own plans too.. other things to do, that I want to do... I can take rejection... *thinks vengefully* mebbe shd have joined CL instead.. muahahhaa.. But heard.. CL is a slavehouse.. Now, here's a questions. How far would you go for money? Option A: They pay you quite well, but you're selling your life to them.. and the place is very political, has advancement opportunities, MNCish, etc. Option B: Normal pay, but pretty free, to pursue your own interests, not much politics, nothing to advance, co is too small... I have already rejected CL, so i guess, this question is not really for me. but for you. which would YOU choose? And Why.
