I'm feeling stuck right now trying to make a decision, so I was hoping I could get some advice here.
Right now I work a pretty stressful job. We're a little short-handed, which makes it worse, and we're really busy. I've always looked at it as, it is what it is, and I do the best I can to get everything done. I've been trying my hardest not to let the stress get to me, but lately I wonder if I'm ignoring too much of it. Earlier this week I got so stressed I made myself sick and threw up in front of one of our clients (so embarassing!). Since then, I've barely eaten during the week because I just don't have an appetite.
At my last appointment with my T, she started in on encouraging me to look for a new job again. I argued against it again, since I don't have my full license for what I do yet and can't see myself getting as good of a job without it. But she ended the conversation with "what could it hurt to look?". So I looked. And I found a job not too far away, doing something similar, but with way better pay. And they don't require full licenses for employment.
So now I'm stuck. I kind of want to apply for this job just to see what happens, but I don't feel like I can leave my job right now with how much chaos there is. I also worry about whether or not I would like this new job. I don't know 100% what it entails, but from what I've heard it doesn't sound like it could be as fulfilling as my current job. With all it's stress, I still feel like I can make a difference once in a while here. Any suggestions? I have until November 11th to apply for this other job.
