CURRENT SCHEDULE:                   NEW SCHEDULE:
11p Sat - 7a Sun                                  8:30a - 4:30p Mon-Fri

11p Sun - 7a Mon                     No required weekends,
                                                 no required overnights
6p Tues - 7a Wed

6p Wed - 7a Thurs



1) the commute is the same, just a different direction.

2) Hours are MUCH more suited to my other projects, which are mostly weekend-focused (busking, performing, clowning, etc).

3) The real killer in my current schedule is Saturday nights into Sunday mornings... get home at 7:45am, leave for church at no later than 9:15, get home from church around 12:30 and have to go right back to sleep for an 11p shift that night.

The only catch here is that the new job CANNOT wait for me to give two weeks notice; I'd be starting immediately. What do I do? For $.050 cents less than I am currently making, I can have the shift I want and my evenings and weekends free, but I have to make a serious decision quickly and don't want to offend anyone or burn any bridges. Help!
