temperatures in the positive...

So I've been praying about my job situation and for God to make it really clear if there's something else I should be doing. I've been not looking for other jobs (except a quick browse on the job bank website a couple of days ago, with nothing interesting standing out), but today I got home from work after praying in the car and there was an email from CIBC in my inbox.

It was from the stand-in assistant manager for the branch I've always worked at, asking me if I'd be willing to work Fridays and Saturdays from April until February.

Now, this means that I could work 13 hours per week at the bank (two full banking days) and get a few bucks more than two full Pizza Pizza days (16 hours). It would mean having an ACTUAL day off during the week, which is something I don't really get right now.

Now, the down side.
There are a lot of bad habits that developed and grew while working at this branch. I've been trying my best lately to kick them and it kind of scares me that I'll have a much harder time keeping disciplined while working there. It also means a farther drive. And having to decide what to wear, but it could give me a good opportunity to actually dress girly for once, which could be a good thing AND a bad thing.

I just got another email telling me that I would be getting EXACTLY 13 hours per week, just as I had mentioned two paragraphs up. Is this the clarity I was asking for?

I told them I can probably make it work, but they have to find out something from someone else first before they can officially offer me the hours. I asked for an estimated amount of time and she said until February - which comforts me a bit because I didn't want to go taking myself off of Fridays and then finding out a few weeks or months later that the bank didn't need me anymore.

They'll let me know tomorrow. I have to pray a LOT because I'll probably have to give them a final answer before Thursday or Friday.

If anyone is reading this, it would help a lot if you could pray about this, too. I want to do it but the question is, should I?
