Crazy Job Situation: What Would You Do?

No raises, except for cost of living, and the last one they had was a couple years ago and it was a 1% cost of living increase. The insurance didn't cover as much as my current insurance, and even though parking wasn't as much as what I thought earlier, I still couldn't get past the idea of having to pay to park on a monthly basis.

So, I think I made a wise decision. I just feel this isn't just a lateral move, but it's a backwards pass!

Just saw this. Good decision. Sorry to hear it didn't turn out to be as good an opportunity as you thought, but glad to hear the decision got easier.
