This thread is being created so people -- generally, those people who can't seem to resist talking about off-topic junk in the Target coupon thread -- have a place to talk about shopping at Target and other miscellaneous matters.

All you folks who hang out in the Target coupon thread, start hanging out here instead! When you've got something relevant to post about Target coupons, please post about it in the Target coupon thread! We'd love to hear about it, but NOT about your dog, your cat, your mom, your genital herpes, your... well, you get the idea.

Does anyone know how much the cheapest Energizer batteries are? Could be a good deal with the 1/1 tq and the .75 mq
I saw some at $3.+ on endcaps at the toy section. Not sure if there are others that are much cheaper Smilie

Can I get some advice? Everyone I have asked is biased, one way or the other.

What would you do?

Job #1 has given you 7 days to accept their offer but you haven't heard yet from Job #2. You would MUCH rather work at job #2 and would be a lot more prestigious but you have to let job #1 know today whether it's yes or no. If Job #2 doesnt offer you a spot, you are screwed. So, you accept Job #1. The next day, Job #2 calls and offers you the job.

Should I feel guilty about wanting to revoke my first acceptance?
It happens all the time my friend. All the time. You have to look out for #1. I wouldn't make a habit of it, but you need to make sure you are making the decision for all the right reasons (and not just for "prestige") - and God Bless that you would have 2 offers within days to choose from! I'd say, "hell ya", choose the one that is best for you.

So you already accepted offer #1? Because I would say that you want more time to consider the offer if not. Then follow up on #2 and find out what's going on there.

It does happen a lot, but you have to also consider that #1 and #2 may associate with each other in familiar networks. And didn't you say this was for an internship? I would think they could be more flexible and understanding that you are probably pursuing other options if so!

Yep, it is for my externship next term and by no means, a "real" job offer. But they definitely do cross paths; one is the state tax court and the other is private tax attorney. prestigious meaning, if I decide to practice in a different state (which I will) it will look a lot better if i work in the courts system than with an attorney they presumably have never heard of. I did accept job #1 w/ the attorney yesterday and I wouldve asked for more time but the 7 day deadline is a strict rule in these externship positions, and then job #2 called me this morning to offer me a spot...

I know it's unprofessional but I am inclined to rescind it. I just need some advice from the outside Smilie

Wow! Good for you! I am hoping for the same thing to happen to me! Like others have said, do what is best for you. Good Luck, and keep us posted!

As long as it won't hurt you professionally, I'd just rescind the offer. Just make sure that you don't ever work with people from job #1.

Don't feel guilty. Especially if it's the next day, just let them know as soon as possible so they can move on to their next applicant. Be polite and considerate but also, you should do what's best for you.
