Well, we come down to this. I have a job offer in an area we would like to live after my short term of unemployment.

Money is OK, almost what I was making.

Position is OK, I have done this before and enjoy it.

Company offered job before I left the interview (Third time this has happened to me in my life).

ISSUE:

I used to have five weeks vacation per year (private sector).

The offer allows two weeks per year vacation plus company recognized holidays.

THOUGHT:

I want three weeks minimum. How hard should I hold to my guns? (I can make it a while longer without employment, but it is killing me to not be working!!!!) Ya never know what they will budge on, but in this market you can find good talent (I consider myself very good talent) around every corner.

One other thing, I don't want to take a job and leave it in a year or so. Taking it and keeping an eye out for something better is not what I want to do.

In a better job market, I would not consider less than three weeks and would stick to my guns.

Thanks,
