Recently had a job offer where I was supposed to start at $30.00/h with a $9k sign on bonus. Kept hounding their HR POC for a written offer as I wasn't gonna leave my current employer without a written offer. I had passed their entire hiring process too.
After 12 back and forth emails over the span of five business days I finally got that written offer on a Friday at 3pm. It was for $28.00/h with a $5k sign on bonus. I waited over the weekend to send a nice, polite email that Monday morning respectfully declining the position as it wasn't a good time for me to pursue this opportunity. The schedule I have and the money at my current employer is much better than their offer.

Just the commute sucks terribly.
