<prompt> Human: Im 26, I work in the corporate office for a wireless carrier that is going downhill. Im severely underpaid for my role director of 3 departments at a whopping 32.5k per year, salary, because thats all they can afford. Or so they say. When I first came on board we were expanding. Rapidly. Unfortunately, the company is run by a family and has them spread out in various leadership positions throughout the company. I say unfortunate because they collectively do a bad job but the nepotism is so real here that executive leadership has allowed them to run it into the ground. This is why I started looking.So apparently the job market is pretty bad still and Ive had trouble finding something for the past 3 months or so. Today I got an offer, call center manager for 42k per year but its at 12 hours per day mon-fri and 9-4 on Saturday. Sundays always off. It saves me a bunch of gas and I dont have to use any toll roads like I usually do. The hours are kind of scary though. Not that Im afraid to work, but I get paid 32.5k now for 40 hours per week. Im expecting a baby boy on Christmas, Im reluctant to get a job that has those hours. If I say I gross 807 per week and divide that by 67 hours, Im just making 12.00 an hour BEFORE tax. Am I looking at this wrong? Is it basically a huge rip-off? I need the money for personal finance reasons but also because I dont know how much longer this company will be standing. I dont know whether to take it, ride this out, or keep looking.  <response>: I always look at it in terms of an hourly wage. My goal is to increase the amount I get paid per hour, not decrease it. If it decreases because I work more hours, the my quality of life decreases, and Im not going to do that.Id recommend figuring out the realistic hourly wage you get now and compare it to the new job. Take into account the money youd save on tolls and driving to the new job as well. She how they map out. Then, make your decision. Personally, I would not take a decrease in hourly wages regardless of the yearly total income.
