I recently accepted a job offer in an industry I've been passionate about for a while, and I was really excited. The pay increase is minimal—just a dollar more than my current job—but I thought it was worth it. However, I made a critical mistake during the interview: I forgot to confirm whether the position was Full-Time. When I received the offer letter, I found out it is indeed Full-Time, but I’m worried about what that actually means. In today's job market, Full-Time could mean as little as 30 hours a week, which wouldn't be enough for me to pay my bills. Currently, I work at a high-volume store where I consistently get around 40 hours a week. I've already put in my two weeks' notice at my current job, and I'm set to start the new position next week. Now, I'm having second thoughts and considering going back to my old job. I've reached out to my new employer to ask about guaranteed hours, but I haven't received a response yet. I feel like I rushed into this decision without thinking it through. I'm looking for advice on whether I should wait for a response from my new job or just pull my two weeks and stay where I am. I know I need to be cautious about my financial stability, especially in this job market.
