So, I am going back to school this semester to get a degree in business. I was hoping to find part-time employment as well, which is slightly easier since I can now apply for student jobs.
I applied for a job in the athletics ticket office, interviewed, and got an email telling me I can have the job if I want it. The people there were all really nice and I think I might liking working there, but I'm not sure.
As much fun as the job would be, I really want to find something that pertains more to my major. The ticket office job is largely hospitality. There's some office experience, but not really enough to be relevant. I'd also have to work several sporting events and quit one of my seasonal part-time jobs (I work weekends during football season in the suites) to work this one. It's not much, but it's extra money and I really like the people I work with.
I'd also like to take some time to get used to my new schedule and get back into the swing of school (I was off last semester) before I add a job on top of it. And I have no idea how heavy my class load is going to be, I think maybe it'd be a good idea to get a grasp of that first.
So, there really are more cons than pros to accepting this job. But, I feel bad for denying it since I'm glad she offered it to me. And I keep thinking: what if? What if I don't find a job somewhere else? What if this job would open more doors for me than I am currently anticipating?
Is there a way to get rid of this awful feeling, or is it there for a reason and I'm making a huge mistake for turning the offer down?
I need to email her my response today, I think. I am so conflicted! :scared15:
