  4. Declining a position after accepting it.

    @RunbabyRN Yes there are. I actually preferred to get an apt 15-20 minutes max 30 minutes away, so that I can not live around where I worked. Those further areas, are either very expensive, the ones I cant afford, or are actually worse in crime than ...
  5. Declining a position after accepting it.

    That's great. But don't let some roses blind you from what you are feeling. It's like you wanting to leave someone for cheating on you and they show up everytime with chocolates, and you decide to stay, over and over. Don't be blinded by that gestur...
