I recently got a job offer from a greenhouse that operates Sunday to Thursday, which is a significant upgrade from my current position at McDonald's. However, I'm in a tough spot because I have a blackout week coming up at McDonald's, and if I call out, I risk being fired. The greenhouse job wants me to start on Monday, but they have a two-week trial period to assess if I'm a good fit. This puts me in a precarious situation: if I leave McDonald's and the greenhouse decides not to keep me after the trial, I'll be unemployed and struggling to pay my rent. I'm weighing my options: 1. Jump into the greenhouse job and hope they like me, risking my current job. 2. Stay at McDonald's and continue with a job I want to leave. 3. Ask both jobs if I can delay the start at the greenhouse by a week, which is risky since I need both sides to agree. I've expressed my concerns to the greenhouse, but they didn't take it well. I'm feeling extremely stressed and would appreciate any advice.
