Business Advice

Ultimately it's up to you but I'd go for option B, more scope for expansion and not just your own career but maybe the business as a whole, which as its a family business may well come to you in the end.

You can always do your martial arts stuff in the evenings and weekends and use it as a de-stresser, I use alcohol myself.

i'd say B, but it depends on your own attitude... if youre not afraid of some hard work, think you can handle the pressure and have some ambition, go for b...

Do I like my job? Yes, I enjoy how simple and easy it is. What I don't enjoy is that it is so dead-end.

Do I think my new job will be more fun? No, I suppose it will be more difficult.

Which job will give me most happiness? At first, at my age, the radio job is because it gives me free time. But I'm also an early bloomer and I want success at an early age. Managing my own store will give me all sorts of happiness.

Which will give me the best chances of ending up doing what I really want to be doing? I want success, I don't really care what I have to do to get there.

Now my real question is should I do this now or wait?

Wait.

I can't stress this enough: young+freedom : it's a priviledge and if you have it, don't throw it away as it happens only once.

Have you considered a lucrative and exciting new career in camel breeding?

Or teaching Tae Kwon Do to the adopted camels who didn't receive training at birth

Ok, we're one step ahead, you decided you want to go through with it...

Do you think you'll change jobs, if you join the family business now, once you've finished your school?

If not, why would you delay your career?

But I should mention... Andres makes a damn good point, this is one of the last few years you have complete freedom (though it may not seem like you do), you can save money for a long journey abroad, enjoy more time with friends, expand on other skills... If this however does nothing for ye: the sooner you start your job, the sooner you'll grow into it and climb the ladder...
