I usually read your blog without commenting. ...Hi,<br />I usually read your blog without commenting. However, I felt compelled to comment today. You should take a moment and breathe. You've waited so long for an offer and now you have 2 to decide from. Look at everything from health benefits to time off. Also, google both companies and see how others who've worked for them rate them. All the money in the world cannot make up for a job that you're unhappy with. Finally, pray about it and the answer will become clear.<br /><br />Congratulations to you!! You deserve all the blessings coming your way.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01761215730978457589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4770769791876146452.post-39333898687300992292014-04-22T05:06:31.955-07:002014-04-22T05:06:31.955-07:00I'm just smiling because God sure knows how to...I'm just smiling because God sure knows how to pour out blessings/choices. <br /><br />Well, I say go with whatever offer/opportunity that gives you peace within. <br /><br />Also evaluate the industry and see which one has a great track record of retaining employees, the benefit packages with leave etc. <br /><br />compare the kind of working environment in general and the one that puts you at ease and makes you smile within and without thats a good indicator. <br /><br />Our God is an AWESOME GOD!!!
