Torn

Got a dilemma hoping someone can offer some input on how to deal with it.
Reader should know that ive been unemployed for the last couple of year and I’ve been surviving through subbing and work/study. Shit happens and now all I got is my subbing but im not guaranteed work everyday. Anyway after struggling for months on popcorn & Ramen; I have an interview with a job in the far north of the city. Now here’s where the drama sets in. Everyone knows I need a permanent job. BADLY. The distance by car is 1 ½ hours but by public transportation is 4 hours (yes). Since my car isn’t new, the eventual wear and tear on my car will cost me. Public transportation will keep me from going back to school next semester. The pro is the experience i will recieve doing this gig. Considering those problems my issue is it worth going to? I'm going to the interview and no matter the decision i'll make I will regret.

Yea, it looks like you're between a rock and a hard place, on the one hand, its something that you need, on many counts, and the other, it will cause major disruption in your life...which no one needs.

The decision you have to make is between your present and your future. Which one is most important to you?

I would go to the interview and take it from there, though it seems like it will be bad, you never know, and realize, you can take a semester off, if it gets too difficult, in order to get on your feet.
