dilemma time...
ok...
so my interview went absolutely smashingly on tuesday (as did my birthday), and i've already been called back for a second interview this friday. so...
i'm in a dilemma. morally and monetarily.
at turntable lab, if i want to buy something, i just buy it, and it comes out of my paycheck in installments. i get cost on everything, so i save a ton, and its quite nice to just slowly pay for it. i've been on the market for a new mixer for months, and i've decided to get an ecler nuo.5, and i can get it for 800$ instead of 1100$, but here is the problem...
since the interviews for the possible new job have been going so well, i'm wary of buying something for a couple reasons...
01. what if there's a chance that i buy this mixer, on the payment plan, then tell them i'm quittting, and they just keep my last paycheck to pay it off and i end up with no paycheck for almost a month (nothing from here, then two, maybe three weeks until i get one from the new job)?
02. morally, i feel terrible if i buy it, and then quit. like "hey, thanks for the cheap gear - peace!" granted, this mixer has been sitting here for almost a year, not moving, because ttl just doesn't cater to that type of high-end techno mixer crowd. everyone here buys battle stuff, or cheap vestax / numark / stanton things. its not going to sell anyway, so at the same time i feel like they're never going to sell it unless its me buying it, even if it could be days before i quit.
no matter what way i look at it, i feel bad. but, at the same time, do i chance it and buy it and hope that possibly, maybe, i can quit and be like "hey, let me have my last paycheck normally, and i'll come in in a month and buy this from you guys"? or do i just play it safe and get a final paycheck (if i get a new job), and then spend the extra 300$ for it here or at another retailer? there is also a chance that i can still buy it at cost down the road, even if i quit, but that's not a sure situation at this point in time.
ugh...i need a new mixer REALLY bad, too. mine is on its last legs, and i'm going to be totally up shits creek if i keep postponing the inevitable. plus...300$ off the mixer i really want is a marvelous situation...
