For Love or Money

I'm stuck at the moment.. Running around chasing my tail. I have work issues at the moment, and I am desperately trying to make up my mind and unfortunately I hit the same brick wall everytime. Being in Canberra, of course for you aussies that stop past and have a read of my blog, the only jobs are basically public servant position, which is fantastic and opportunities are always around the corner to progress... and that's my dilemma. I work for a wonderful department and get greatly paid for the work I do, I have awesome boss who for a nice change is family oriented which works in well with my life and my girls, but recently opportunity has come a knocking and I'm dealing with an issue of loyalty vs progression. So if I take the loyalty road, yes the money pays the bills and a little left for luxuries, but mentally it is starting to get mundane. Now flipping the coin so to speak, and taking the progression road, the money will be ample, the work would be challenging and more responsibility. Confused... Idea's anyone. I think Ill leave my work issues there..
