re: Etiquette for turning down job after accepting?

What about the "total compensation package?"

I worked for my last employer in sales for 7 years, and I made a modest base salary, but pretty hefty commission. My last year with the company I made $30K in base and $90K in commission. During the last three years I was working 6-7 days a week with 60-70 hour weeks. My homelife SUCKED. Company morale sucked. Benefits sucked. It was not a healthy work environment. The only thing that job had going for it was the pay.

My current job I make $80K base plus an average yearly commission of $20K. Some years are better than others, but the overall compensation package is better with my current employer. I have better benefits, and I work on average a 40 hour week.

BUT the main thing is I am happier in my current position and my home life is better. Money isn't everything.....
