    I’ve decided to go ahead with the zoom interview for the job that I’m not too sure about. It’s a twofer too.

    Awesome good luck!!! As they say nothing ventured, nothing gained. How exciting
    Thank you!

    reviewing what I like about my current job:

    my own office overlooking a parklike area

    a bathroom I don’t share

    low stress

    nice boss

    very seldom need to be phony

    close to home
    gas
    easy commute in bad weather
    kids’ activities
    emergencies
    easier to make time for gym
    no traffic

    the hours are earlier than average

    attractive & safe environment

    plenty of parking

    good places to walk

    Sounds like you like a lot. What's making you look elsewhere?

    It is very boring, not challenging at all, no room for growth, and the pay is low. I’m supposed to be moving into financial independence over the next couple of years and I have bills to pay

    I guess you like all the for lack of a better work perks of your current job. Being bored and unchallenged is never fun. I was always that way at my jobs.
    It's great you're doing your zoom interview. Will you be able to go to the office in person to check it out and see what kind of feel you get from it? Change is hard you want to be able to feel comfortable and usually we can figure that out in a simple visit

    Yes, if the zoom interview goes well, I’ll schedule a time to go in and meet the staff.

    Well that's good. Good luck!
    Do you think this could leverage your current job into a pay raise?

    I wish! Everything here is by contract as negotiated by the union. We’re not up for renegotiation for at least a couple of years.

    Ah well that sucks
    New job wouldn't be unionized I guess?
    At least you have a current job so you can be picky. It's always a nice position to be in

    No, the place I’m interviewing is not unionized but it is another weird niche sector with its own kind of strange rules. (sectors I find strange: government, healthcare, academia)

    I’m really trying to enjoy the process. It’s hard 😂
