She Shoots...She SCORES!!!!!

Just got a job offer today!!! I've been interviewing with the Leader Post. I had one interview, then was informed that I was one of three finalists. Then I was asked for a quick phone interview, which went well. After that, I was informed that I was one of only TWO finalists. So, they asked me if I could make one last trip into Regina, so I did that today. After meeting with them for about 30 minutes, we were done and they asked me to just wait for a moment while they discussed in the hallway. Diane came back in and offered me the job.

Now, I also have a pending offer from the U of S. I had a message from them on my machine today, so I'll have to phone them back in the morning. So, I asked the LP if I could give them an answer on Tuesday so that I could make a decision. Basically, I'm stuck and don't know which one to choose. I have to make a decision by Monday night, so I can phone my landlord and let her know whether I'm moving to Regina, or staying where I am. So, I'm going to give you guys the important details of each job, and you can give me your opinions on which one I should take. And don't worry, what you say I should go for won't be the deciding factor for me. But it might give me an idea as to where my thinking is leaning.
