New Job

So lately (ok, for the past few months) I've been thinking about getting a new job. I keep going back and forth on it and I just can't seem to make up my mind.

Pros of my current job:

  • I've lost 20lbs and am in the best physical shape that I've been in in about 3 years.
  • I work about 5-6 hours a day M-F so my afternoons and weekends are free.
  • Come summer time I can spend my afternoons out on the lake in Dad's boat.
  • I get to work with horses
  • The pay is good for only working 20-25 hours a week
  • Once the snow all melts and the ground hardens up and grass starts growing about half my horses will be living outside = less stalls to clean.
Cons of my current job:
  • My boss is crazy...like should be institutionalized crazy.
  • It's a lot of physical work and I come home every day barely able to walk because my back hurts so bad.
  • The next 2 months are probably going to be Hell with the melting/freezing/raining/Spring so the horses won't be out that often which makes stalls awful
  • Inadequate help. I have more horses and more work to do than when I started in August yet am expected to get everything done in the same amount of time without help.
  • My new car is already dirty after only a week.
  • When it's cold, it's damn cold.
Humph. It's really a lot to think about. I think I'll probably stick around for a while and tough it out. When the weathers not bad, like today, I quite enjoy my job. My boss was even pleasant today.
Decisions, decisions.
