Questions: Education & Career

I am currently in a field I like but the day to day grind is tough sometimes. Early, early mornings. I have to drive all over the state and it's tough dealing with winter and waking up at 2am sometimes. I also have a lot of freedom and there are positives to the job that I like.

I am trying to get into a work from home position in a field I am excited about, but I can't find anything that will hire with fair pay.

I technically have the ability to make $90k-$120k in this role, but that Is 8-12 years down the line when I get experience and find another role.

I currently make $32 an hour. I found a job that is exactly what I want, but the pay is ridiculous. They want to start you on a probationary period at $15. After a year you can make $18. After two years you make $20. And it goes from there based on how good you are.

This is too big of a pay drop but the benefits would be working from home and eliminating all I mentioned above. It also gets me in the door for what I want to do. The only downside is the salary, of course. What would you do?

The best serious and comedic answers will be duly noted and rewarded.
Please take the poll as well.
