Re: Am I being too picky, especially now?
If tuition is 9k then 8k is DEFINITELY much when it comes down to it for your M.S.
If you can get your clearance, better benefits, and enjoy what you're doing more go with that. If you're only going to be there awhile your 401k isn't going to be great anyways so you could always consider a different type of investment after figuring out what you put in/what you'll get back. |

Re: Am I being too picky, especially now?
Hey Daseal, what did you decide on ultimately?
On a related note, how's this for a dilemma? Senior level management opportunity. Great salary and benefits, tremendous responsibility and exposure...with the Philadelphia Eagles

Re: Am I being too picky, especially now?
Well, it's still a bit muddy. I started the position I was familiar with today since the other one was still in the air. I figured they may be stringing me along. Then this afternoon I get an email saying they need one more approval and they hope they haven't lost me yet. I'll give you an update when I know what's going on myself.

Re: Am I being too picky, especially now?
I probably identify with 31 teams moreso than the Eagles, but if that dilemma was offered to me, I'm taking it.

Re: Am I being too picky, especially now?
Ouch... I'd have to take it though. Hopefully it would be in a capacity that didn't directly translate to their on-the-field performance.

Re: Am I being too picky, especially now?
It wouldn't. All off-field related.

Re: Am I being too picky, especially now?
haha hoo!
Good luck man, hope it goes well! If you're back in this area we should catch a game in the fall, probably at a bar since my work schedule may very well suck =(

Re: Am I being too picky, especially now?
Time to feel like an asshole! After about 4-5 weeks Im quitting the job I took. The other offer is far too good for me to pass up. It's better in absolutely every way.
Money, schedule, perks, insurance, career growth, etc. I guess I'll tell my boss I got a better offer and put in my two weeks. We'll see how this goes. Also, Smoot. What decision did you end up making?
