Antiwork

currently working in the city (1 hour to work, and 1.5 hours going home) and got an email for an interview for a similar job 15 mins away from me

the only problem is the 15 mins away job is not a big worldwide company like the one that i have now. the benefits are good at my current job, but could be better. i just “graduated” this May (i have one more class in the fall then i get my business degree) and i got this current job sometime in april. i like it but the commute can be so stressful and i’m burnt out. having to wake up 2 hours before my actual shift just to drive 10 mins to the train station, pay for parking, then hop on one train just to get to another one. i know people LOVE to work in the city, but not me. i hate people, i hate crowds, i hate loud anything. i could’ve moved but all the reasons i just stated did not convince me AT ALL to move there.…

if this new job offers me the same money or more, i will take it. is it stupid if they offer me less money and i take it? i make about 58k right now. thank you!
