I could really use some insight here --
I currently work for a mutual fund company that is about 29 miles from my home. It is a great company and I generally enjoy my job and the people there. However, I was recently offered a job that would only require me to commute about 6 miles to work everyday. This job also happens to be closer to my field of study, where my current job is not (Degree in computer science, currently working with mutual funds).
They are offering me pretty much the same salary, but I will be saving a ton on gas, going from a 60 mile round trip commute to a 12 mile commute.
What are your thoughts on this? I'm really struggling with this decision. I appreciate the help.
