a week of opportunities

this has been a strange week.  work has gone ok.  still the same old rush here, rush there, not enough hours in the day...but my old boss has offered me a job.

would be a lateral move - no increase in pay.  there would be a lot less stress and responsibility, though, and that in itself is a prime benefit.  i'm considering the offer.  the people at the institution where i work are great, but the stress....not sure it's worth it.  was talking with my sister-in-law, who worked at the prison for years before i ever got into the system.  she said stress was the reason she left, too.

so maybe the job offer will work out.  i hope so...i've proved to myself i can handle a job with an incredible amount of responsibility, but it will never lead anywhere better.

Sometimes it's worth it to make a move even when the money is the same.   Less stress is worth a lot!
