Am I crazy for doing this?

Happiness is the key. If you dont enjoy your job and what you do it will affect your morale and eventually your job performance. If i was in your shoes i'd leave a professional but anonymous letter with upper management voicing your concerns. If that doesnt work or change the situation then you have to make that decision. My grandfather always told me work smart not hard. Just remember though the grass isnt always greener on the other side. Good luck and be thankful to have a job in these tough times
 
Honestly, you say it is only $2 less an hour which is still decent and seeing as you both split everything down the middle with no kids and no mortgage then I would say put your happiness first.
If you keep up with your current job it will put unneccessary strain on your relationship and you have an almost immediate way out of your current job which may not come around for quite a while.

I say take the new job.
 
Benifits are the key for me. Go with the new palce.
 
thats chump change. who works for 14$ an hour in the freezer? just demand 28$ an hour and if they say no, take 14$ of products per hour and load it in your car. you still win that way.
 
UPDATE:
Well I decided to stay at MBM thinking the money would keep me happy. That and I didn't want to live "poor" again or mainly didn't want us (girlfriend and I) to have to spend wisely again. Not that we were ever poor nor are we anywhere near rich, just have extra money now to spend than normal. I made an extra 15k from last year's job and honestly I can't think of anything I used that 15k on wisely. There's a few things like invested a little bit in the stock market and have almost 1k saved up for an engagement ring. Which is alot for the amount I'm planning on spending. Other than that, we just spent it....blew it all.

I thought since I'm making this much money I can put school on the backburner. I'm done with it. This job sucks, who wants to work 14+ hours a day doing back breaking work. Even five 12 hour days would suck enough. Plus all of the B.S. around here is ridiculous. I'm done here. I'm applying back at my old job which is sooooo easy when you compare it to MBM. Applied where my brother works too. I'd rather work some OT and make a little less and budget my money out then hate my job and life for the next 4 year or so going to school part-time. I'll miss the paychecks, but in the end I won't regret it at all! Money doesn't make you happy when your working 60+ hour weeks and 12+ hour days. I'd rather work 40 and do whatever I want in those 20+ hours than work like a dog here. I definitely don't live to work.
 
yea, good luck to you. that's a tough call but then, hey, i think if you'll be happier, it may be worth it to go back to spending wisely
