Where would you prefer to work? Although this is transferable to other careers, I'm a teacher, so in my shoes...
Which job would you rather have and why...
Job A: You get feedback on your performance. People pay attention to how well you're doing, so you put in some extra effort to make sure you do a good job.
Or...
Job B: No one really pays any attention to what you do, leaving you the freedom to do what you want, even if that means just not working hard at all and phoning it in when circumstances require.
I know most people who grew up with the western Protestant work ethic would be inclined to say Job A, but Job B is so much easier...

What i learnt a long time ago....take the one which pays the most money, ultimately you never know how a job will work out until you actually start work...so the only definite is the money and the perks that come with the job...do this until you have a fair wad in the bank and then you can pick and choose your jobs and even work part time for pocket money

I'm in my element 555 With you as an educational icon, might I humbly ask, would you please explain the grammatical meaning of the word "of" in your sentence "p**sed the backpacker teaching brigade of this month". Did you perhaps means "p**sed on the backpacker teaching brigade this month"? |

Having worked as employee to large companies I know the workers tend to have more feeling for the company than the company for them.
Do what you feel you have to do, what allows future possibilities and avoids burn-out or heart attacks.

THere are two groups ofbackpacker teachers...p**sed and Stoned. The p**sed brigade were the winners of the monthly competition. They always did tell me to reflect on what teachers say and not just take it at face value. |

Depends where you are on your career path, sometimes its not always about the money, but quality of life. Theres at least two previous jobs I had I would go back to tomorrow in a heartbeat. I know guys who have turned down promotions, the extra money didnt outweigh the extra BS they would have to take on. |

What is your actual job description ? Professional bullshit artist ?  joko, I have never asked anyone for advice when it comes to picking between two job choices. I just go with my heart and then regret it later and wish I'd picked the other job, that some other &*%#@*&^$% has got now.  |
