Today

Thanks for all of the support guys!

I appreciate it...really..

I have a job interview tomorrow. Same field as last time..but for the GA PreK program..But for incredibly less money. But it's closer to my apartment. So now my heart is playing tug of war between needing money, and being over worked and under paid. She said if I'm not a "nut" just plan on staying tomorrow all day..lol..if she only knew. Oh well good thing by looking at me I don't look cracked up..lol..

So right now as we speak I am sitting on my couch searching craigslist for something better.

So with that being said..I need to go back and search some more..

I have a question...

Would you take a job that was paying an incredibly less amount of money?

NOPE; I wouldn't. I'd feel that's like lowering my standards.

When it comes to accepting a position for way less than you're worth, then it all depends on your need for work. If you need to collect a check as soon as humanly possible, then I would take the job for less and keep looking.

I am a firm believer of doing what you love and not settling . . . but the reality of that is you have to have money to live. If you can make do with what you have now then I say keep looking. If you can't maybe you should take it knowing it's only temporary . . . it's a hard place to be . . . but keep your head up, keep the faith and know that in the end it will work out how it's supposed to.

I'll keep you in my prayers . . .

That would depend on how much less, and how much happier I would be.

The job I have now pays well but I am bored out of my mind!

Hell thats the reason I started blogging.

Now when I was working in mental health the pay suck but there was never a dull moment and I felt like I did something when I went home.

Follow that link, read that post.

At the end of the day, it's not about the money. It is about your happiness. I took a pay cut for the peace of mind I have in my job now...

If it will clear your mental space, do it.

I ahve taken a job for little money because my other option was to be broke.

but I knew it was a temporary situation; I just needed to get my head above water and take care of my babies.

I'd do it again if my only other choice was to be broke.
