Sorry to hijack this thread with another personal question.

I currently have 2 offers which I am most keen but I am not sure which one I should be proceeding with.

Background: Mother with 1 boy (2 yo yet to enroll in a CC)

Offer 1: Closer to home, salary wise approximately $10 000 less than offer 2 per annum and in the long run will also be lesser. Non profit organization, bonuses approx. 3 months a year. Childcare services in the building however, is much cheap for on-site staff, good worklife balance, no OT, no Saturdays. Job scope administrative and less demanding. Carpark charges are cheaper and colleagues seemed nice. Stable job. Takes a shorter time to process (unemployed now)

Offer 2: Quite far from home, carpark is slightly more expensive and working time is slightly longer. Irregular work hours, but if I clock 3am I don't have to return to work the next day. If I clock anytime before that I will only need to return to office 12pm the next day. Salary wise competitive, standard merit increment, and bonus around 4.5months a year, stable job and I like the scope of work. Taking the son to CC will be a headache due to nature of job and distance. Takes a longer time to process (unemployed now)

Should I choose a job that I think I will really enjoy, or a job that I fairly enjoy but offers more convenience?
