Advice needed!

[HANNAH19]

Hey girls, here are my two options:

1. I'm currently working for a good insurance company " Farmers" but the agent is close to broke, to many bills, wastes money on hair wigs (not important things), and all I hear around the office is I have no money, we are sometimes told to cash or deposit our checks to days after payday because there is no money.

2. A new oportunity, a business that just started but she already has established clients, she bought a broker business, she is growing as we speak and she is willing to pay me the same hourly rate plus comission which I currently don't get paid.

I'm just really nervous and scared because either way I'm at risk!

what is your advice to me and what would you do? OPTION 1 OR 2 .

Take the new opportunity! Just make sure you get benefits, etc.

I'd go for option 2. Sounds like your first option will be going under anyways. The second one sounds a lot more promising.

option 2 is best, specially if your current boss is being telling you that he has no money, is definally not a good sign.
Good luck.

I am currently in a similar situation, I work as a office manager for a small construction company ans you you all know the economy has dropped, hence, the construction industry has suffered alot. Well my boss also is broke and cant pay us on time. I have been applying elsewhere, but I am hesitant to leave this job because of the flexibility here. In the situation I am in, without my husband, i know this job will ahve no problem with lettign me go see him whenever where as a new job will not understand.

Number 2

Most definitely option 2. I would always jump on board the new and growing business than to stay with the old and dying business. Why don't you try to get a little more money? This would be a good opportunity for you to establish the fact that you are very experienced and all the skills you bring to the board. In addition, you are very motivated and can be beneficial in helping to make her business grow. You might get it and if she says no, you might be able to wangle a future advance promise. Good luck.
