its never wrong to look for ways to better yourself. doesnt matter how it benefits you, more money, better hours, closer to home etc... dont feel guilty about it cuz when it all boils down, business is business and if they can find somebody to do your job for less than you do, chances are they will. likewise, if you can do your job for more elsewhere, or make more doing something else you should take advantage.

Do it, I'm thinking about leaving the company I am with right now (been here 4 years) for a job not to much further away, and I make 10k more a year. Plus its a better working enviroment....but my company also just merged with a larger company, so i'm also thinking about sticking around for a while to see what changes.

You just have to think long term....
