My wife is having a dilemma at the moment. She have two part time jobs. One of them is offering a full time post with more money but she is scared to leave the other job because of her loyalty and good friends she made while working there. She's been having sleepless nights thinking over it in the last week now. What do you think she should do?

i think she should take the full time job. You really shouldnt have loyalty to a company anymore because they have none to you. Loyalty doesnt really exist anymore. Plus, moving on in jobs is part of the business world (or other proffesion) now. I know it may be sad for her to leave her friends but she has to think of whats best for her career and whats best for you guys financially. She can still stay in touch with these friends if they are close enough, and if they dont stay in touch then they were never great friends to begin with and she should base on a life decision on them.

Well, it is really hard to answer that question since not all variables are known. If I were in the same situation, I know I would take the full time job since you said it pays more since we need the money. But, if you are ok on money and it's not the "big" factor, then she may just stay where she is. I don't know. I would take the full time position, I think. It's more money and more stability. But, she may like the freedom of that part time job more. I know I didn't help any...I am sorry. Yall just have to sit down together and see what is the most important...ONE full time job with more money or staying the way she is now. Good luck!
