Inertia

When I joined my current organization, I was amazed to see the average service age of the officers which was more than 25 years. As I have mentioned in my earlier mail as well, here the long service award starts at 20 years unlike 3 years of my previous IT company. And I thought....People are lazy enough or may be incompetent that's why they didn't ever try to move on.
But now my thinking is changing...Actually recently I got a call from a company. I was glad and I said yes for the interview and went through the HR round. But then I started thinking...why should I leave this company...I explore various reasons:
1. People say, ' One leaves his boss not his company'...But I have got most amazing boss i can ever imagine for.
2. Place/Location: My home can never be closer to where I am currently.
3. Working Culture: Hmmmmm...though it's an old organization and I get bored with the slow moving pace of work or rather bureaucratic approach, but I love the people over here. I can approach any one any time here.
4. Compensation: Though I could have 25% increment easily, but then counting on Cost of living and travel time and various other consideration, even this was not convincing.
5. Housing and Food: This is something I am not happy in my current condition, but i do not see any guarentee of this getting better in the new place.
So what is my decision? INERTIA....let's get along and stay some more time...
Right...beginging towards LSA (Long Service Award....completing an year in next 3 months)..
