What are the possible ...I agree with Coyote Rose. <br /><br />What are the possible outcomes of applying for it?<br /><br />A) You don't get the job, then you deal with the question of looking elsewhere.<br /><br />B)You get the job and love it. Problem solved.<br /><br />C)You get the job and hate it, then you decided from there whether to ride out the recession or take your chances on the job market. <br /><br />There is a 66% chance of an acceptable outcome. I say go for it.Castorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08419436230443084437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6791381.post-61853679503569076922010-08-11T13:33:06.224-07:002010-08-11T13:33:06.224-07:00I think you should do what you think is best for y...I think you should do what you think is best for you. If this new job will give you a challenge and you'll enjoy it- go for it. Plus whats the worst that will happen- you don't get the job? At least you have a job.<br /><br />Just remember you can always give 2 weeks notice to any job.Coyote Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06965691195583099253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6791381.post-77333669751484701102010-08-11T13:22:31.054-07:002010-08-11T13:22:31.054-07:00I remember telling someone that i rather work at a...I remember telling someone that i rather work at a office job than my current job and that person response was YUCK!
