The attractiveness of different wages really depends on what the job involves (working in the hot sun versus in an air conditioned room), whether hours are flexible, and whether you have to spend much time commuting to/from. It sounds like this is pretty good on the intangibles, so it really just comes down to whether the $/hr tradeoff makes sense.

Except that lack of communication and reliability is, itself, an intangible, that onlinehost says this job is bad on.

Weird thing to see downvoted. I’ve dropped my salary by $50k to maintain a better work-life balance once.
