I need some serious career advice. Ok so I got an offer from a competitor for an outside account executive. I made 70k last year on pace for about 80k this year my base is shit $32, 500. They offered me $50, 000 base with a pretty decent commission structure. Now the thing is I have to get a car if I take this job I don’t really wan t one I live in the city it is more of a pain in the ass then anything. Where I am I am top 20 of 200 where I am going I got to start all over. It is a big risk in the current economic environment I could win big or I could lose big.

Thats candians dollars ?
Cost of living and taxes are high as hell.

Def factor in the cost of car ,car insurance,parking in the city , gas and other expenses that go with owning car.

That raise from 32k to 50k maybe not be a raise at all if it cost you 18k a year in car payments, insurance ,gas plus your time on the road.
Do the math and see how it turns out.

I took a job a few years ago 1 1/2 hour away from home vs a job 5 minutes away. I breaking even or making very little more then working 5 minutes away I also lost 3 hours aday on the roads becuase gas went from $1.09 in 2003 to $ 2.40 2005 in less that two years.
The cost of driving ate into the profit.

LOL I know the size of the company he works for and the size you work for I wasn't suggesting anything sexuals just a win win situation know what I mean.

Not worth the risk for such a modest raise in base salary, IMO. Let alone the extra expense of a car payment and insurance/gas/maintenance. Stay where you are until the overall economic picture is brighter.
