Perhaps the most difficult decision I have ever had to make was made earlier this week. I turned down the offer with the city PD. I just today got re-hired at a part time retail support position I held the last two years of my undergrad, and to boot I'll make what I did when I quit. It doesn't pay a great deal, but the hours are flexible and it should cover my bills.
I'm looking into several graduate programs for the fall. I fear that had I took the city PD position I would never have a chance to get an advanced degree. I feel like everything is "fresh" in my head right now and I am still passionate about what I study. I know even a masters degree is still no guarantee of a career, but it is a life goal of mine. I find that the more I think about this, the more I have to eliminate material comforts and pursue what I believe will make me happier when looking back after many years.
