"a dreamer just like you"
Mar. 18th, 2019 04:50 pmI GOT A JOB OFFER.
It's a part-time gig in the field with a much better manager, similar commute (blech), new responsibilities...and way less pay. The manager said she'd talk to HR to negotiate a higher rate to offset the reduced hours/paycut. Logistically it would be tight as hell but it could work, I do have some savings and it would just be a big lifestyle change. The biggest pain is I'd lose my work health insurance as I just can't afford the tripled premium part-timers pay. But I can qualify for cheaper insurance via the market which is good because no insurance is not an option. Why is psychiatric upkeep so expensive.
Fun fact: If I had a car it would be a 12 minute drive from my house. Because I take transit it's 90+ minutes including a mile walk.
Either way I'm just waiting on final salary offer to formally accept the job. I'm so ready to go and the pros outweigh the anxiety pluuuuussss I have contingency plans if this doesn't work out. I'm nervous as hell but gotta leap.
