it's completely commission pay
From their side that means they’re risking very little by filling the position but there’s a definite loss unless your replacement is as good or better than you. If they’re thinking strictly in terms of money you need to convince them that you’re so far and away the best candidate for the new position that it’ll compensate for whatever hit they take from losing you at your current position. I know that’s really captain obvious but maybe it’s a useful thought for strategizing your answers. Just the fact that they’re interviewing you instead of just promoting you suggests that you’re going to have to basically prove you can make the sell during the interview.

Say I’m not interested in selling you a pen. Let’s talk about ink. How much are professional looking documents worth to this institution? And what about CD s?

CDs?

See Deez Nuts Bitch!

You just added a comma on your paycheck.

Lucem, you're right, it's silly to talk about what I would or wouldn't do IRL. Glad you brought it up. Maybe you should write an instrumental about it. I recommend a piano paired with a clarinet. With ambient sounds of you hanging from your shower curtain you ****ing failure.

Art Is Dead. Buy My ****.
