Intersting responses everyone! Thanks!
To clear up a few questions/comments, work is paying for the phone line call forwarding features, the fax macine and all office supplies. I never took regular breaks at work because the hectic nature of our business was go go go go go. They may hire someone to do some small office tasks, fax things to me answer phones etc, but most of my responsilbilites will be absored into extra hours for other current employees. And I will be dropping responsiblities, but I will be picking up more responsibilites with the computers because there simply was not enough time to go more into the inner workings of this system because we had customers, phone calls, employees and vendors to deal with. Being away will allow me to do a lot of indepth work with the system.
Since they will be loosing an experienced sales person I do think I need a pay cut, since I won't be there to help in that way and I don't think they will be able to hire another person who will fit the job since the hours and pay won't be too big and most people we've interviewed need more pay more hours less of a contract etc-they see the job as something for transit period in their lives, where as I love the job and while its not a "career" I just love what I do, its hard work but I like to get up and go to the store, don't mind long hours etc.
