A friend of mine from the newspaper called me this afternoon and said there’s an opening at the newspaper where he’s working now, which is a different one from the paper where we were working before. My first instinct was to call up another friend, Graham, and tell him about it, since he just got back and is looking for work. But then I began to wonder if I should consider it myself.<\/p>\n
This position would probably pay more than I make now, but in return I would have to sacrifice my evenings, as working hours there are 3pm to 10pm. I’d also have to sacrifice half of every other weekend. The content I’d be editing would probably be more interesting, but then again there’d be that daily deadline to deal with every day…and there’s all of the reasons I took this job after working my last job at the newspaper, even though I’m not making as much here as I was there. <\/p>\n
