It sounds good. Is it better or worse than what you have now?

How about pay? Is it less than your current job? Can you make it, pay your bills etc? If you can make it financially it sounds like a good job.

Well I have concerns they want me start training right away I said I could start in 3 weeks have to give notice. They took 3 plus months to offer me the job. The pay is 2.35 more an hour. My brother says take it. But I'm seeing if they'll adjust the schedule I before I actually give notice. It's M, W, F 10 to 2. I asked to switch to T, W, F. because I have a group at 11 on Mondays.

Avisa,
Having enough money to pay debts is significant for you. Is your monthly income going to be increased or stay the same? A decrease in income could get very stressful. __________________ True happiness comes not when we get rid of all our problems, but when we change our relationship to them, when we see our problems as a potential source of awakening, opportunities to practice patience and learn.~Richard Carlson |

My monthly income would be less but what I'm spending to work this job may actually even out.

my current job just offered a raise effective Jan 2. like 1.75 more an hour! Now I want to stay. I work around my schedule rather than according to their schedule. What do I do? Stay or go?

1.75 is a nice raise.
I think it’s a good idea to stay. Driving sucks but I think you can find a different job later on if need to |
