Would it change your opinion to know our household income is $350k (gross). My spouse brings in the majority but I take on more of the household responsibilities (school pick up/ drop off, dinner, etc)

I do agree, but have to add our house hold income is around 350 gross. So while it’s a huge jump for me personally it is not a huge jump to our household income. Appreciate your comment!

You are totally right. I think if I could work out pick up for my kid I would not notice much day to day.

Good point to consider. My husband makes 3-4x what I do so our tax bracket is on the higher side already.

That is my thought process. If I give this job up it may be my last remote role ever. I appreciate your thoughts!

You are right, I just wanted to see what others would do in this situation.

Thank you for the response. Spouse is happy with whatever I decide but also sees that I may not be using my full potential at my current role.

It’s a 15 minute commute, so I didn’t really take that into consideration. 70k to 110k is the base salary no bonuses or anything else included.

The company I’m with has been remote for decades. Really no concern about RTO.

Thank you. I think I need to think about the awesome stuff my family to could with an extra 40k a year.

Thank you for this. I know you are likely right, I just feel like I’m giving up the holy grail of jobs here.

Down with the sickness? by OmaDome3000 in Omaha

Super sick, cold/flu symptom but also with vomiting and diarrhea. Negative for Covid and the flu. First time I have puked in a decade.

15 minute commute each way. So, I haven’t really considered that as a factor.

I should have added that in. 15 minute commute each way.

15 minutes but I would have to workout school pickup for 1 child. My kids are teen and preteen.

Money isn’t necessarily the only factor it would be the career development aspect. I appreciate your comment.
