As mentioned this summer has been one of unemployment and consequently Law and Order SVU. Needless to say, this new hobby is one I love but does not pay the bills. We all know the economy is rough and finding a job is as likely as a my pup attempting calculus...ahem, hard. I am happy to announce that I will be working again come this school year and I am beyond excited! You are looking at a new ABA Therapy Provider (ABA=Applied Behavior Analysis).
This unfortunately has put me in a position I would like to know your viewpoints on. I found a job, one that I know I will love, one that is directly tied to my career field, my educational background, and one involving my favorite kiddos in the world. Unfortunately, this apparent dream job comes with a significant pay decrease. Now, I was originally only making teacher salary, so I was never making decent pay. Sadly to say I am now making sub-par-non-decent pay. I will be going from salary to hourly and that cuts the yearly pay almost in half. My question I pose to you:
Would you take a severe pay cut in order to stay in your desired field, or would you prefer to work in a job that drains your soul, but keeps you bank account afloat?
