OK, so my struggle right now is this; I had an interview for a position last week, at a Christian organisation. I was extremely excited, even though it was an hour and a half on train away from my home.
So I had my interview, felt a little cold in general, but I was myself, and they have offered me the job, however now, I am not sure what the right decision is, because while I would love to have a non-secular job, there are a few things I cannot ignore.
Like the fact that I would be travelling 3 hours each day (which I can deal with) however, I would have to leave home at 6am, and get home at 8pm. I would no longer be able to attend any bible studies. The organisation is not easy to get to, also, they require I work 13 weekends a year, once a month is 7 day working week, including Easter Long Weekend (which I am ok with, however, no additional pay, or reimbursement for travel of any kind is offered. And you have to travel a few hours to get to where is needed.) And it also pays min wage, very min wage.
So, obviously these things are rolling through my head, I currently have a secular job at the moment, which I am happy with, but I can no longer cover my expenses, such as.. a dying car lol. I do have other secular interviews lined up. But would love some advice. I have been praying on this heaps, and I still am confused, I feel like, I was meant to go for this interview, because it really put me at ease in knowing that I can do interviews, and I can be calm and confident etc.
But beyond that, I feel like I am being greedy, however at the same time, I am so not a greedy person, I am not materialistic in anyway, and if I didn't have to buy a car, I wouldn't. I just feel like, I need to consider that I have rent, and bills to pay also, and this position will barely cover those, including the cost of travel to get there.
Ok, I sound like a massive whinger, but thats whats in my head right now, and would love some feedback, both good and bad, whateva, just don't be to harsh, I am oversensitive lol.
Oh and I don't want to accept the position, if I am still looking elsewhere, as I feel that isn't fair of me to do, hence the MAJOR thought process right now.
