Yes.
I'd gladly take it, even if it was 100% stress
I'm a fucking risk taker.

No, not necessarily.

My next job needs to be in the field I trained in and want to commit my life to.

Depends on the job, and depends on whether its 100% more than my hourly pay, or if its 100% more than my hourly pay + the tips I make.

Because if its the former, that isn't actually a pay increase unless I make tips in that job too.

Depends on the kind of stress. My office job is pretty stressful with meeting project deadlines already as a relatively low level employee but Id gladly trade it for managerial stress. I think supervisors generally greatly oversell the pressures theyre under.

I already have the categorically most stressful job (in America at least)

But no.

Maybe if I was making triple or quadruple but I don't make that much in the first place so
