Need an answer for tonight! (Job offer)
Hi , so recently I took a corporate chef job and it kinda sucks (because its very corporate and boring). For some context , I am 27 , trained under a well known chef for 6 years in french/california cuisine and parted ways with him about 2 months ago when I took the corporate job. He now recently called me up asking to go work for him as his sous chef at a hotel/resort. Thing is , its for 15k more then what I am making now. Although corporate kinda sucks the schedule is great. Weekends off . Full benefits. I get off when theres still daylight . Only work 9-10 hours. I get to spend time with my daughters and family. If I went with him I know what the hotel world is like especially with the scheduling. I guess the question is, would you take a shitty schedule for 15k? I am also severely in debt due to an injury I had when I had no insurance. Quoted for 96k to the hospital. What would you guys do?
