At Crossroads Once Again

So for the past 4 years, I've been working part-time at Dome, even changing my location last year. Now it has come to the point where the upper management have been asking if I'd like to join the company full-time. Honestly, I want to tell them I can and yet I feel I can't.

To join full-time, I'd lose a lot of freedom, especially when it comes to choosing the days I can go about doing things I want. Losing the time to catch up with friends is more of an option really. Everyone who's my classmate in Shatec would know that people in the service industry will never have time on weekends unless they've been booked at least 2 weeks ahead. As for the people who knew me before that, they've either learnt the hard way that I never have time on weekends, and week nights, or they know that they should book me 2 weeks in advance. But the question if is this freedom really worth losing just to try to get into school. Somehow I feel it's the right time. Time to conquer the fear of not being able to handle both situations together.

I somehow know that if I were to stay at this outlet with the people I have now, I will be able to manage both sides. However, if the situation ever asks for either myself or Y.C. to transfer out, I have a feeling things might not go so well. Then again, it's all down to negotiations.

Guess it's time to have a talk with Y.C..
