I got a job offer three days ago and it start makes me so miserable...
The new job offer more salary and more complicate than my current, coz it is underware fty tradeing with foreigners, I need to follow all the orders they place and translate their message into chinese for otehr co-workers. But I don't know if I can handle it or not, if I quit my current job and work on the new job, the boss don't satisfied to me and fire me or I can't withstand the pressure, then I loss both of them. Quit or not quit, it makes me so painful.
Then my famlily suggest me ask for leave to my current boss for a week and try to work on new job, to see if it is OK for me or not? It is a safe card, if I don't handle the new job, at least I still have a job.The question is, what if the new job is fine, then how do I quit my current job? Coz I can't tell my current boss I quit in advance, then I have to quit my job suddendly without leave enough time to transform my job cotent to my co-worker, and my boss can't find a new clerk at time. I feel very sorry about that even thouh my boss never give me a raise during my work time, and my current company will not give me a month salary as a punishment.
So now I am very upset, under the economy,I can't not afford to be unemployed, a month later, I need to work on my new job. That means a month hard time for me, now I am so confuss and miserable.I always can't stop thinking about the awful time when I quit my current job to my boss and then leave at once! But what I should do? I hate choose and change job so frequent, but my current is just cozy and low salary and no future...

Keeping the horrible secret by myself, it like a bomb that make me so scared. I know I worried too much, some people did this thing before and they feel good. But I know I am a bad guy to do this, whatever I do will hurt one side of the new and current boss. Now I am hurting myself first and deeply, coz I feel very bule and uncomfortable.If this feeling last for a whole month, how can I handle it?

how your going to handle it is hard to say you just have to make good out of something bad no matter how hard it is for you to do the only thing I can say is spend a little time with your love ones and really talk it out

Chinese should help Chinese,Xiaohong is a standard Chinese name.haha.
If I were you I will quit the current job asap as the 1800rmb salary is so low in such a society with currency inflation.Maybe the salary hardly can maintain our daily live.To be honest I red most of your posted discussions,I admire your good command of english,I think you are deligent and outdstanding,Compared with most of Chinense.As I know,even a clerk or a assistant can get about 4K rmb salary in most of foreign company,even these employers can not master the english as well as you.So why not change a more challenging job ,Seems you lack some courage or confidence.This is the most important character to whom want to be successfull.I know if you lose job,that you may can not afford,But why not be aggresive,I think you deseve at least 5K-6k Rmb one month.I also red another disscution posted by you,You Want to be employed by yourself,if you want to be Boss,you should think what jod can help you to achieve the goal.I think only engaging in sales or marketing related job can likely become a boss.Above is my suggestions,The final decision is on your hand.I only want to remind that time is so limited.......don't waste time on such ordinary job.Bty, I am engaing in sales related job,My job is so much stressfull....but it is very challanging.

You can't serve two masters. You must leave the other one to work for another one. Try to choose. If you can't handle your new job and think it will give you burden then leave. It is nice to work happily and contented.. Now due to poor economy that gives us the idea to work more than one will help, make sure you can do both perfectly. Just only at your own strategy....

You have to choose based on what you think would be better. Don't be afraid to make decisions and fail. That is part of life. We should take chances on things we believe can be a better option for us. Don't deprive yourself of the better opportunity because of fear that you might go wrong. Always aim for what you think is best for you. Don't let fear hold you back.
Well, this is just my suggestions and the last decision shall be in your own hands. Have a great day!

Only you can clearly decide which one will be the best for you and your future. It all depends on your priorities. I suggest you think long and hard about the short term and long term benefits of both jobs. Then from there, choose which one that will benefit you the most.
