Feb. 3rd, 2003 02:48 pmFirst, a little background information.
Company A wants to interview me for a test position. On the positive side, it'd be working again, and the company makes game software. On the negative side, even the top end of the payscale for this particular position would be about a 40% paycut. Assuming they offerred the top end, i'd make about $30 more a week after taxes than i do on unemployment- and this doesn't include transportation costs or anything else. Assuming a monthly bus pass runs about $50, if it's not included as an employment perk (and the company is located in Belltown, so there's not much parking around- bussing to work would be definitely cheaper than parking downtown, so it's likely at least suggested), we're ostensibly looking at a monthly difference of $70, possibly less.
