I will spare you the gory details and they WERE gory but I gave 2 weeks notice at my job, the manager quit outright when I did, and I am being begged to please consider staying on as Manager. Also on Friday I have been asked to come in for that "work day" at the Attorneys office and then they will be making their decision. The money is very attractive at the store but it means 50 hours a week and I can barely stand 40 now. I don't think things would change all that much just cause I was Manager. I know when I told them I quit I felt like a weight had been lifted off me! As you know the job situation here is horrific. What do you think?
Been skimming the board some trying to keep in touch. Thinking of you all everyday.
Oh yeah, finally got DSL installed last night! AWESOME!!!!!!
Love to all!

This job has always been a difficult one for you ... a toxic one as well. Smetimes there isn't enough money in the world to make up for job-related grief and aggravation. And 50 hours a week so the *corporation* can make huge profits? I don't think so!
You have your health to consider ... both physical and mental. And your family, too. A family isn't a family unlesss they have time to hang out together! You won't have much time to do that if your work load increases.
You may have to listen to your body and your heart with this decision. Your head may find the salary attractive but ...
JMHO ...
I know you'll do what's right for you in the end ... and if you make the wrong choice, you can always change your mind ... a woman's birthright! ;-)
Many blessings!

Just a thought.....would there be any way you could take the manager's job, and continue looking elsewhere for something else? Would you have the time to do that, working 50 hours a week?
I hope something else comes along real soon. Good luck to you, sweetie....Hugs, BB
The money is good but it could not be enough to make your life better. You deserve more and they aren't going to give it to you. Fifty hours they say? Baloney!! They will have you working 60 if they can. You said it felt like a weight had been lifted off your shoulders and remember how you felt then. Sharon, something will come along. Give that place a kick in the rear. We bugs won't be paying you moolah, but we surely will be giving you plenty of love. Now, that is all IMHO, you realize. I go along with whatever you decide.
Hugs coming your way.
