During a national election, it always strikes me how different the political world is from the business world. For example, in the most recent election we had candidates who were a sitting vice president and a governor. Both kept their positions, receiving normal pay, while they campaigned for several months. Unfortunately, they were not successful and thus returned to their regular place of employment.
One can only imagine an analogous situation in the business world. An employee says to their employer, “I am taking several months off, with pay, to look for a better job. If I am successful, I will leave, if not I will stay here.” It seems highly improbable that such an approach would be successful.
