<prompt> Human: Cut and dry here:Im 25 yo in tech industry. Job Option 1: 75kyr including bennies with 401k etc. Plus scheduled raises per year 2. School District Job. Commute on a GOOD day is 1.5hrs. LA TrafficJob Option 2:Stay where Im at construction based job at 62kyear with bennies and pension no 401k. No scheduled raises. Commute is 15 minutes. Not LABTW I have a newborn at home and I HATE commuting LA. EDIT: Since this thread is gaining some traffic, I should elaborate a bit.-My current job is in the Construction industry, specifically Audio Visual installation and Automation. I am currently one of our AVAutomation Sales Engineers and our Lead Automation Programmer. This job allows me to gain a WIDE range of skill sets in AV, Security, Access Control, Automation, Lighting, Programming, CAD, Engineering, etc. because it is all related in one way or another. The downside is its a mom and pop ran business with MAJOR management issues. I hope the company lasts another ten years but the owner is getting old and his sons just arent fit to run the company and the owner knows it.-The LA based job would be an Digital Media Manager position which would be more Live AV based stage lighting, video recording of Extra Curricular Events, Live Audio, etc as well as support for the classroom-based AV technologies projectors etc. I feel this would LARGELY narrow my experience and windows of opportunities and if I take this position, I would assume to become a lifer. Thanks for all the help!  <response>: 1.5 hour commute is totally out of the question for me at least. 8 hours working and 3 hours sitting in the car? Id rather t-bag a beartrap.
