trust your feelings, good insurance is worth alot when kids are involved. Look down the road, which company would you want to be working at in 5 years?

670 a month for us.

its not techincally an IT position its at the firm, doing purchasing, rma's and some tech support...wtf it is.

Insurance for the other company is around 400 a month through American Community

Tough call Nyck. Remember the cost of insurance is not just the monthly premium. You need to find out how much they pay for a doctor's visit etc. (and especially for any little Nycks that are on the way.)

I suck at giving employment advice so let me just say that if you pick one and like it then that's the one I was gonna say, but if you hate it, I was gonna say the other one.

elstatec · 11-30-2005, 05:12 PM

whats the annual salary rather than the hourly?

guess you just have to see the factors of pay, actual work you might enjoy doing, and benefits.

i get paid 9.61824 USD an hour to play games thats all i know.

wtf with all these people who want nycks nutz?? pick the one you think you will like more and i would stick with your wifes insurance if its better. from what you put down, i would go with dynamic edge. yearly bonuses are good, insurance is free, and you get a free phone. the main thing is you said you liked the atmosphere and you are familiar with the work. i would go with them if i were you, but what are you more comfortable with? just cause you arent familiar with a product doesnt disqualify you. Learning new things on a job makes you more valuabe and gives you experience, like +10. $13 an hour for someone who has a degree is a bit low, but if your rent is that cheap, then you shouldnt have to worry about it. what are you going to do?

Do shutup.

Why ask us? Most of us have no real adult experiences like owning a home, having a child, paying a mortgage or insurance bills. IMHO you should ask your parents are some close friends of yours.

That or do what you want man, it's up to you. In anycase I wish you good luck with whatever you decide to take.
