Right, jus been thinking about what i want in a job. And having a little trouble.
Say theres 2 scenarios
1 - Job what you have wanted to do for years, but doesnt seem that important anymore. Would be working in a small office, family run, not many people (if any) my age, for an average pay. could drive there and would have more say into what goes on.
2 - Work for a big company, in a big young office, but not doing exactly what i wanted (some elements still there). pay would also be better. wouldn have much of a say around the office, and would have to get the bus. This office in in the city too.

Depends how much more the 2nd job pays if you're traveling up to the city everyday, got to be a couple of grand in travel expenses each year

I was in this situation -- chose Option 2.
Don't really like the living in central london bit as I miss my open spaces and working on the car etc, but the job has much better prospects.
Do it while you're young -- can always settle into an 'easy life' later...
