Well ladies (and gentleman), I took the job. It ended up being a slight paycut and I'm going to have to figure out how to pay for my masters. But this job was just too good of an oppurtunity to pass up. I'm not giving my two weeks notice until I get back from India in the begining of March. I just have to keep my mouth shut for the next week until I leave. I'm so excited about this new venture, but also a little sad to leave my old job. The people there are just so great, its the only reason I've stayed in the job as long as I have. But sometimes you need to go it alone, so it's time for me to leave.
Thank you all again for all your support and advice!
It's only worth it if you're having fun
