Seeing as how I\'ll be done with school this summer, I\'ll have a couple of different career options... and I\'m not entirely sure which to choose.

Option 1)
Nice pay compared to other jobs. Fixed amount of worktime every week (37 hours). Weekends off.

Option 2)
Potentially (much) better pay than option 1. But also way more work - including weekends.

So basically it\'s a matter of money vs. time. I\'ll have to admit that I do like my sparetime and thus is favoring option 1). Now that question is...

What would you do if you had to choose?

Work your ass off early in life and build up a nest egg.

how much more money, no offence, but if you post the hours per week, and the amount of money, then it would make easier to pic, personally id go with number 1, ive made my self from over working b4, and its not good, 5 days a week is enought for me

Is that now possible?

Anyway, go for number two. Work hard when your young, save allot of money and enjoy yourself when your older.

No, unfortunatly neither option involves sex.

Option 2 is like (potentially) double the money (or more) and potentially double the work (well, not quite double the work I suppose)...

Geez, why was I born lazy! j/k

Option 2

Can\'t add a poll after the fact. At least I don\'t see how to do it.

Option 1. Just work what you need to, save that money and live at home for awhile. You\'ll be able to save money and not work all the time.

Sorry LIC, I moved out a long time ago.

Besides, my parents don\'t live where I\'d like to work.

Option 1 is the way to go and IMO this is why... you spend 80 percent of your adult life at work (for most people) and a trend is beginning where work is not the most important thing in life. Sure you need to work to survive and get what you want, but there is more to life than working away at a tedious job - which most jobs are.

I say your time is more valuable than money in this case. If you can live comfortably with the money from option 1 go for it. The Protestant work ethic here in the US is what created the 5 day work week. I would love to see it drop to 4 days

If you don\'t have money then who gives a shit how much time you have off. You\'ll run out of free things to do rather quickly.
