Thank you guys!!! You are the best, and I've seen way too many good results from PS dust that I'm a believer - absolutely 
I did want to get your opinions on the safety situation in Caracas though, since you've all been so kind. If you have time, please take a look! https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/caracas.149722/#post-2712369#p2712369

BEG -- I wrote in your "Caracas" thread that I don't think I'd take the job after reading the State Dept's warnings on security. It does seem too risky.
Havng said that, if I was in your shoes, I'd be tempted to go for a visit and check things out in person and meet with people at the law firm though, just to see things for myself. I'd also make sure to take someone with me.

Thank you everyone. I really appreciate all the dust and good wishes. Unfortunately, I wish this were a happier situation. Right now it's just kind of stressful.
I'm feeling pretty guilty because I'm in a precarious position right now. I need to get a job soon, and this is a great opportunity both short- and long-term. I love the firm and I really liked the people and I think the work could be awesome too, but the location is just really wigging me out.
I've spent the last couple days talking to my family and friends, and most people are saying HECK NO. I did feel really awful talking to my ex (he's a lawyer now as well) and he basically told me to grow up and act like an adult and take the job if I get it. It felt pretty bad.
I'm still waiting to hear back so I figure there's no sense in worrying right now. I am hoping that unless something can be worked out (where I can go to a different office instead) I just don't get the offer because I don't want to have to choose.
I will definitely keep you guys updated.
