Be thrilled and ecstatic that they're fighting over you.

Practicality tells me to determine the long-term pro's and con's for each job - rather than the immediate bonus of 'signing'.

My 2 cents at least.

Howdy by the way!!

Are these still contract gigs, and if so, how "long-term" are you/they talking about here?

That said, Aliki's got a point...you are actually going to have to live with this job, not just obtain it and add it to a collection in a box somewhere.

yeah... you're totally in demand - that means you're fucking awesome at what you do...

I agree with the previous poster - figure out which one works best for you in the long run... if the pros and cons for both jobs are about equal... then yeah, go for the money... but just make sure it's worth it...
I mean, money is great - but what good is it if you hate every minute of earning it?

I agree with the other two posters. I'm sure that, given some thought, the decision will become clearer. Good luck! :)

God I wish I could have some of your issues... ok well really just that one. The others you can keep. HAHA.
My .02 = you have been frustrated with your current job do to lack of training and followthrough on their end.. if the new company sounds more promising.. then take it.

PS I bought a new desk top - cause I needed one fast for finals week. which = no money for laptop. :(

Get drunk and flip a coin. That's what I'd do. ;)

But you probably should listen to the others. Or, if you hate working with shitheads, go with the job that has the least shitheads. I'd probably do that too. -K*
