Insomnia Research Studies

Which summer job should I choose?

I recently spent two very different jobs and was offered both. First job is as a residential counselor at a private eating disorders clinic in an upscale neighborhood. Second job is a government job as a project manager for a research project on substance abuse counseling on Veteran Affaris Health Care System and Stanford Medical School. My dilemma is this – I've already started training for eating disorders work, that is going to give me any direct clinical experience with real patients. It pays $ 14.50/hr with terrible benefits. But, I must go from 3:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. three times a week and from 9 to 21:00 on Saturdays for a total of 36 hours. I love this plan because I get to sleep in. .. and I have insomnia, which makes it difficult for me to get good sleep as it is. The second job – I'd call it research job – pay $ 49 000 annualy for a 44hr week. Of course it would be 9 to 17:30 each day (Ugghhhh). My biggest fear is that my insomnia will do this job hell!

Write down both jobs of separate pieces of paper. Fold them up, jumble them around and select one. As you read what job you picked to be aware of how you feel. Are you glad you chose Job A than Job B, or do you feel disappointed and wish that you had picked the other piece of paper? Listen to your feelings and good luck!
