HELP! Fear is taking over!

Ok, so I just found out that I am in the short list for a new job that has the potential to be my dream job. I could get my foot in the door now, and then when I graduate with my MSN be in a place where I really want to be. Sounds perfect, right? Wrong. Why is it that I somehow feel loyal to the asshole that I currently work for? The same asshole that has not given me a raise in over two years (that's right, TWO years) AND just told me on Friday how mad the other "girls" are that me and another nurse are taking classes. Even though I made sure the schedule is covered. Why the loyalty you ask? I HAVE NO CLUE. The very thought of changing jobs is giving me palpitations as we speak. I hate change. But I also hate my job. I like most of the people I work with and that bums me out. My head says "You have to do what is best for you" but my heart says "Don't leave". Maybe I am meant to stay where I am? Maybe it would be less stressful for now. I am going to school full time and it sucks ass. Grad school is so hard, I can't even believe how very little I am even comprehending. Is now the best time to change jobs? Someone out there help me!!!!!!!!!

Do what makes the best sense for you.

I'm turning in my notice tomorrow for a better opportunity.

We could quit together!!

Go for it. Nobody has ever gotten anywhere by not moving. When you're concerned about being overwhelmed by a new opportunity while going to school and such, think about how much more energy you'll have with a job that excites you rather than one that makes you feel drained and bad at the end of the day. For me, working a job I like 60 hours a week is less tiring than feeling like I'm getting nowhere putting in 20 hours of real work at a poopy job.

Reach for the stars and go for it. You are making the right choice.
