OP again. I've been offered a better paying position, but it won't begin until August.

This job would start Wednesday and I'd work until June 15th with a summer break... so I'd earn around 12k for that time but they pay out on a teacher's schedule so it would only equate to around $2400 a month BEFORE taxes. But I'd be getting other paychecks while not technically having to go in. So... I don't know.[/quote]

This is your first professional job, right?

I’ve been in the professional workforce for 20 years. My first job had a lot of undesirable tasks that I thought were beneath me. In fact, my current (senior-level) job has tasks that I don’t really want to do.

I know a few people who held out for the “ideal” job. That job never came. But without entry-level experience, they didn’t just age into the management jobs like they expected. So suddenly it was ten years later, and they couldn’t get a 10-year experience level job, but they also weren’t getting called for entry-level jobs because they had nothing really to show for 10 years between college and present day.

I’m not saying you need to take this job. But there comes a time when you need to take a job on your field and start building experience. It probably won’t be the perfect job, but it gets the ball rolling, and you can keep looking for the job you want.

Good luck![/quote]
