The Hot Pepper

First - which is more? Tell the lower one you got 'x' from the other, are they willing to match it? Second, is there better opportunity for future growth at one vs. the other? What about hours - does one promise more regular hours than the other? Is there anything besides money that caused you to look elsewhere? How you answer these things will likely point you in the right direction.

If all else is equal, go where there are people you can work well alongside.

The job I currently have pays more, but I work less often, and I have access to professional video and audio equipment if I ever need it on my freelance gigs. There is more opportunity for growth at the job I interviewed for but I don't really care about that because I don't intend on being here for longer than another year, although I'd get to work in jeans and a hoody everyday instead of slacks and my hair did. The answers don't point me in any direction really. There are...

pros and cons to each.

i haven't worked in 5 years and in the past did the loyal employee thing. never again. get the most money as you can and if something better comes along. take it! i was a long term loyal employee and each time got whack based on economy, not on performance. and never tell them you were a stay-at-home-dad! the interview will go like this: i wish i could have been a stay at home dad.... so,what have you done in the past 5 years. no shit. several interviews all the same response.

That's rough. The job I have now would be great if there was more concrete hours, but I never know when i'm working or for how long I'll be at work and it drives me crazy. But I have the flexibility to say hey btw I'm going out of the country for 3 weeks! and its not a problem. I also have the ability to schedule my freelance stuff and photo gigs while working this job. The new job would be a guaranteed amount at the end of every week, with bonuses and benefits, a concr...

a concrete 9-5, but limited vacay days, and it involves more driving… I hate driving.

"because I don't intend on being here for longer than another year"

Whichever helps this more.

What mx said. Also it seems you value the freedom over the stability. So there is that...

Well its more that I am lazy and enjoy having days where the only thing I have scheduled is to cuddle with my dpgs when I wake up.

;-) Well at least you are honest. I think that should answer your dilemma though.

What do you need more, time or money? Answer then take that one... f**k it, join the circus.
