Success! Prt 2
I got a call back to interview for a job I applied for at MU. It's part time and the advertisement on the web says it pays 29,000 per year. If it pays tuition remission (and possibly even if it doesn't) and actually does pay what it's advertised then I am so taking it! (And if they like me of course).
The only real downer is that now I feel like a traitor to my current job. It's employed me for two years now and paid ..part of my lernin' fees so I feel like a bit of a bitch looking for other jobs and even worse of one now that I have the interview. Adding salt to that wound, the other manager I work with who is also my boss is a great guy. My attendance at work has increased 90% since I got this job just because I never want to leave him in the lurch so even when I feel like death warmed over I come in. Now I am looking at a possible other job and if it all goes well and I take it he'll be really in bad shape because it takes my department a while to hire people. He'll have to do the work of tow for a couple months even with me giving two weeks notice.
On the other hand, a job that pays more (hopefully) and offers help with school (again hopefully) and is part time so I can get through said schooling at a faster rate so I can get my degree in environmental science and get a job before I'm too old to be considered over younger graduates, is nothing to be sneezed at. I feel very torn.
