JOB QUESTION: What should I do?! (please answer)?


I work two part-time jobs. One of them is at Giant Grocery Store making 6.60 and hour, and the other is as a Dietary Aide at a nursing home making 8.48 an hour. I've been working at Giant for about 2 months, and I just started the job at the nursing home a couple weeks ago. Giant is right down the street from me so it only takes me 5 minutes to get there, and the nursing home is about 20-25 minutes away. I get a lot more hours at Giant which is what I need and they would give me more if I wasn't working at the nursing home, which i'm only getting like 2 days a week. I've been thinking about quitting at the nursing home and going full-time at giant as a different position making a little bit more probably 7 something or maybe 8, so my question is, is it a good idea to quit the job that pays more for a place thats closer and I get more hours?Or should I just stick with both? What would you do? Stick with both, or just work at Giant? And I dont want to quit Giant bc of its flexibility...

I would go with whatever job your are more satisfied or happy with. Chances are that you will perform better in a place where you like as opposed to working either because the pay is great or offering more hours. Money isn't everything.

stick to giant spec if u get a raise

Do what you love there is next to no difference in money and commute.

What job is more satisfying to you. That is the way to make the correct choice.

I doubt if you left the nursing home on good terms they wouldn't take you back.

This country needs people so bad to work in nursing homes they won't say no if you re-apply.
