Think retirement benefits. Sales may have promotions but economy not great right now. If MS rears it's ugly head, which might be better for you? Pros and cons. MS means looking carefully at futures. (and you ain't no spring chicken anymore, know what I mean?)

Good for you Wiz! . I'd look closely at the retirement and long term disability benefits if I had to decide. Of course, liking the job and the people are the most important things. I'm sure you'll pick the right one for you .

I'd prob go the safe way, and choose the desk job. I know I can't be on my feet for more than about 20 minutes. But, I hope whatever you decide works out for you.

Congrats!

Congratulations!!!

I'd say go with option 1. My logic in this is you'll be doing something you love and if you're happy, this will hopefully mean less stress and therefore an ease in symptoms and better overall well being.

So happy for you!!
