1. Pro: Get out of my current job, which I hate. This tops the list, because anything has got to be better than where I am now. 2. Pro: If I get a job in Waco, Brian and I will then be in the same place. Finally! 3. Pro: More money. I can just about guarantee that a law firm job will pay more than what I'm currently making, which is never a bad thing. 4. Pro: Doing something I like, where people might actually be glad to hear from me and might appreciate the advice I have to offer instead of whining and complaining every.single.time I talk to them. 5. Con: I'd have to sell my house. 6. Con: And pack. 7. Con: And move. UGH. Eleven years of accumulated mess in this house. It makes my stomach hurt to think of it. 8. Con: The logistics of K seeing J would become considerably more complicated. 9. Pro: Baylor football season tickets! 10. Pro/Con: I'd have to commute 90 miles one way until my house sold. But, the potential salary might be enough for me to afford a new (or at least new-to-me) car. 11. Pro: Working somewhere that actually paid my bar dues and CLE, that appreciated my professional credentials and helped me to support them. 12. Pro: Smaller, more collegial work environment. There are eleven lawyers in the firm. How could you not get to know everyone pretty well? 13. Pro: Have I mentioned the salary potential? Doubtless there are more I could think of, these just top the list. Now, if I'd only get a job offer.... Links to other Thursday Thirteens! 1. (leave your link in comments, I’ll add you here!) |

Good luck with this. I would like it if I could get a different job too.
Wait and see what happens, Lisa. Don't make yourself miserable trying to decide now, kwim?
Hope everything works out the way you want it to. I have a bad habit of driving myself crazy with the "what-if's" as well.
Hope that whole job thingy works out in your favor. I can relate to your situation...have a degree, no job in this rural area. I would have to commute 60 miles. But I don't want to sacrifice 2hrs. traveling time every day when I still have a kid at home. Love your list of 13!
