Replying to Need the help of NS with a big decision

Alright heres the deal.  I currently work at New Balance in VT.  I make 13.50 an hour plus commission which comes out to being about $1000 every 2 weeks.  I also have 3 weeks vacation because i have been with the company for 5 years.  It is a specialty fit store so i have to sit down and measure peoples feet and convince them that they need to buy $140 sneakers.  Must customers are old and overweight and this is why they are having foot problems.  They usually buy shoes from Wal-mart so the idea of spending over $40 seems rediculous to most.  Its not a bad job but there are days i want to shoot myself in the face.

Now today i walked into a ski shop and ask about employment oppurtunities.  They said they could train me to become a boot fitter because i already have a lot of experince with the biomechanics of the foot.  The only problem is the pay is not nearly the same as i get at NB.  The commute would be much longer too(hour and 15mins extra each way)  but a free season pass comes with the position (i am currently a college grad and can no longer get cheap season passes)  Also i would be working in a ski shop and learning a trade that could be very valuable to me in the future. 

So i come to you NS, what should I do???  If i work part-time at each location i would lose my vacation time and health care(because i would no longer be a full-time employee)  If i leave NB i would take a huge pay cut but possibly have a much cooler job.  Or i thought about trying to work 35 hours in 4 days at NB then working 2 days at the ski shop.  35 is still full time and i could keep my benefits but i assume both places would want me on the weekends.  And finally i thought about working at the ski shop 2 days a week souly to learn how to fit ski boots kind of like an apprenticeship and asked that instead of a paycheck i get a season pass??  I need your help NS my future is in your hands.
