Hey PB ,
It sounds like your mother is a very understanding person. I'd value that to the grave.. but it also sounds like the job isn't something that you'll find easily.

Personally, I'd lean towards the promising job given the economy situation. Job losses are happening left and right. Skilled, hard working people are losing their jobs and you can be sure they're looking for a replacement just as hard as anyone else.

Postpone your trip or have a vacation @ home. Get out and enjoy the summer with your mother while enjoying your new job at the same time. You can butter both sides of the bread and have a double decker sandwich... they're satisfying.

I'm sure she'll understand and be proud to have such a great child.
Best of Luck,
Bob.
BobBong Reviewed by BobBong on . A difficult decision... I was planning to go on a fantastic road trip this summer with my mom for 2 weeks. I was also supposed to get a fantastic job with the Department of Natural Resources during the summer, but was recently turned down because I'd be missing too much. My mom said she would be willing to take the trip by herself, which makes me very sad, but I wouldn't have the money to pay for a trip if I didn't take this job, it's a very very good job. I don't know what to do. Rating: 5
