You take the money. Respect and that shit can be earned by putting in good work at the new place. The money sets up your future better.

That seems like the answer at the end of the day, but I don’t think more money would necessarily make me happier overall, and I have a pretty good routine going now. Just worried I won’t be as happy there. Not as concerned about prestige and all that, but I do like all the super nice people trying their best to help me and make me happy where I’m at. I’ve never experienced this before. I could always give it a try there and if it doesn’t work out try to come back to where I’m at now.

Money may not make you happy but here's how I look at it.

In my situation more money means getting out from under student loan debt and other debt faster which means I can save/use it to do things I enjoy like getting out of state tags and booking a guide to go moose hunting in AK or saving money to travel to Europe to do family research and shit. As it stands now all my money goes to bills/debt payment so I'm an angry miserable asshole all the time.
 
@Limbo Pete give me some career advice.

Turned down an interview at a highly prestigious place last month that serves the extremely wealthy. Feel a little inadequate to work there and don’t want to deal with super rich patients with high demands and expectations.

Right now working at a semi lazy, low prestigious job and get pampered and fawned over. They desperately fear I will leave them. Got women making me coffee and bringing me food every single day. People offering to pick my kids up from school. Lots of super nice people.

Have a new interview in 2 weeks. New job pays 35-115k more per year, involves less work, more days off, would get adjunct appointment at a top university (currently at a less prestigious one), but I wouldn’t have all these nice people taking good care of me everyday.

If I leave, I will make more money, but I might dislike the job, and I will lose all the nice services I’ve grown used to. How to decide????

Do you need the money? Or are you plenty comfortable with your current standard of living and loving the lower stress job and perks?

flip a coin.

Is any amount of money ever enough? I survive fine here. If I made more, the only thing I might change is probably buying a nicer house at some point. California houses are super expensive. On paper, new job seems easier. A few people who work there have told me it’s lazier than where I work, but you never know.

I'm not the only one that views this as a "sorry, but we already knew who we were going to hire before the interview, sorry for wasting your time but thanks for ticking off the 'minority interviewed' box for us" am I?

I thought you worked at a gas station?
 
Lock down lifted. Guy is some 150 miles south in a standoff in his car with state troopers with an ak47. No other reports on injuries other than 1 federal Marshall hospitalized
 
During a surgery it’s next to impossible that would kill someone cause a person is constantly monitoring your breathing and acts on it when they see a narcotic makes you stop. Outside of surgery, probably more common if you are just taking drugs you don’t know the dosages to. There’s no way for us to know about this epidemic however, let alone have a civil discussion about it.

Funny, because I've been contemplating a thread that dives into the epidemic of deaths caused by medical error.

Sorry, bro.
 
Sorry, bro.
Still have the SLCO interview to hear back on so there's that... and got another interview on Monday with Thurston county so.... hope isn't lost...

I'm just pissed off now. Curious who they could hire over me, job wanted 2 years experience in the legal field and I have over 4 as a Superior Court Clerk.....

Hope whoever they hired over me sucks donkey dick and lied on their application or during the interview and quits 2 months in then they come begging me to take the jerb and I can say "too bad so sad, I live in Utah or Thurston County now and am happy where I am"

Yes, I'm salty as fuck

First off, sorry man...

Second, personally, I don't ever waste my time looking at candidates I will definitely not want to hire. But sometimes, your candidate 1A won't take the offer, so you gotta be super fast with 1A in order to make the offer to 1B without them feeling they are a backup solution if 1A says no. I think their candidate has already said yes.

Half Japanese... other half his Eastern Euro with a very Slavic sounding last name.

My fucking mom who is the full blooded Japanese:
"You weren't enough of a minority for a WA state agency to hire you to fulfill their minority quota. Fucking Jay Inslee"

Keep at it, man. This happens to everyone, you're doing well and you're doing it right. Sorry to hear about this one, though.
