Feeling Guilty!!

I've been a temporary receptionist at a local high school for the last 3 months and today they have offered me a permanent post. Whilst this is great, means I get time off when my kids are on hols, it did make me feel rather guilty as I haven't said anything about wanting to emigrate (hopefully within next 2 years). I know its a couple of years away and anything could happen in this time but still feel a bit dishonest, just the way I am. Did anybody else have a guilt trip over something like this?

Hi, I started my job about 6 months ago knowing that we would applying soon and probably emigrating (if all went well) within a couple of years. I had a slight twang of guilt but not enough to stop me taking the job! You should just accept the job and enjoy it for however long you are there!!

Will probably take the job, just got sort out start time, but having school hols off is a dream job as I have no one to mind my two and holiday clubs cost a fortune.

Hope you're feeling ok?

Take the job Tracey, 2 years is a long time, you're obviously good at what you do or they wouldn't offer you the job
