I get to go for language testing for a design monkey job. This is good. This means my craptacular portfolio passed muster.

Still waiting to hear back about Jobs A and B. I'm not holding my breath about Job A, and Job B on the other hand – I'm glad I operate well with lack of oxygen.

Would you take more money for a good job, or less money with less promotion potential for a great job?

It's an entirely theoretical situation. One job is as a graphic designer, work that I love to do (it's anal and creative) with fewer career options for me and starts at about $4,000 less, but caps out about $30,000 lower than being a programme administrator, which in the right field is really neat, but absolutely awful in the wrong field, but on the plus side it's very mobile as a career and can potentially be earning $60k in 5 years and $90k in 10.
