LOL.
Well, whether you take it or not, it's great to know you're really wanted. It's, like, so totally the opposite of being banned from a group that insists you were only kicked out and that you wouldn't want to post to in the first place. So, there's that.

As part of the 2024 London Marathon, I am fundraising for VICTA, a charity that helps blind and visually impaired children. My mentor while in law school, Jim K (a blind attorney), has been a huge inspiration and an example of courage and perseverance. Please consider donating.

I would say take it. Short term pain for long term gain. Sounds like you could move to somewhere between the new job and DH's job, to cut down on the commute for both of you. Money is great, but you really need to be happy with what you're doing and it sounds like you're not happy at all in your current job and the new job is just what you're looking for. Nothing ventured, nothing gained, right?

Actually... he's basically said "name your price". So the counter offer is really up to me. Can I be bought? Possibly. lol
Oski, I'm most likely old enough to be your father, so I'll give you the same advice I've given to all of my children.
If you choose to take a course of action and later decide that that was not for you, then you have the option of changing.
If you choose to forego an opprotunity , then you will be forever wondering "what if".
Best I can do. Good luck with whatever you decide tomorrow.

LOLI didn't take the job. I could have... and I could have had a big jump in salary, but in the end, I didn't want to be away from home that much.
I still hate my current job, but I can at least come home at lunch to run... or clean up dog puke like I did Monday. lol

Thanks for the update. Sorry the opportunity didn't work Out. I am sure another opportunity will come soon.
Probably the best choice. Driving that much would really suck. And a sucky job does have its upside; nothing fuels a hard run like a sweet, sweet fit o' blind rage.
