Ahhh I don't know where to begin with this one, I just need some advice, because I'm pretty confused. I started working at a local hospital in January. I work in the Facilities (maintenance) dept and I only work half-time, which is just 20 hours a week. They are so easygoing and we always have fun and I really enjoy my job and all the things I do. It can be hectic, but at the end of the day, everyone is still in a good mood and not pissy. My supervisor told me last week they put in their capital budget to have my position approved for full-time. I was so pumped on hearing this, but got let down today when I was told they wouldn't know if it would be approved until October
For the last two months, I've worked another half-time job that's also 20 hours a week. It's a job at a place I worked at a few years ago and have always hated it, but it helps to pay the bills. I have been looking to get out of there badly, because I have to drive 30 minutes to and from that job, three days a week. It kills me on a gas, whereas I just live 3 minutes down the road from the hospital. Last week, I decided to apply for another 20-hour per week half-time job at the hospital and have an interview tomorrow. I'm pretty excited.
But today, I got a job offer in a completely different department, a full-time position in Risk Management. This is very different from what I do now and everyone has had bad things to say about the department director, what a bitch she is, how strict she is, how stressful working in that dept is, etc. The job starts at $13.25 an hour, which is $1.72 than I currently make now. If I got the other half-time job at the hospital, I would be making the same as I make in Facilities, which is $11.53 an hour. I know that's definitely enough to pay my bills, but with $13.25 an hour I could live very comfortably and have extra money to do whatever I want with. The only bad thing about the job, is that I don't think it work with my school schedule this fall. I'm friends with the girl who was asked to resign from that position and she told me that that job is very stressful and she did it for six years. I don't have any experience in risk management/compliance but I have done a lot of public things for the hospital so I tend to know a lot of people higher-up (sorry, I don't mean to sound conceited.)
My mom (she also works at the hospital) thinks I should go to the interview for other half-time job and keep my fingers crossed that it will work out. The devil on the other hand, is tempting me because of the money, but I don't see myself being happy if I got the full-time Risk Management position. I worked in a stressful job for three years and HATED it and it wasn't even a hospital job. Sorry if all this doesn't make sense, LOL....any advice?
