POLL: What to do...work related

okay, most of you know that I had been very unhappy with my job.

It's getting better. I'm probably not going to get a pay raise for a while, but I have a new boss and he's AWESOME.

Now there is an opportunity for a promotion- but it's in another area, so I would have to transfer.

Now, I have a 30 minute bus ride into the city and I walk or take the subway to see my clients. I have the best territory- right near my office and near Port Authority.

If I transer, I have to drive to all of the clients, wherever they may be in Northern NJ (where I live) all the way to LI. And, I'd have to deal with all of the obnoxious clients because that's part of the promotion.

I'd get a 5 % pay increase and a better job title.

edited to add: My boss doesn't want to lose me, but admitted that there isn't much room for advancement in my territory.

I'd say no because I don;t think a 5% increase is enough for the amount of travel you'll have to endure each day.
Example, say you made 100,000 - you'd only get a 5,000 increase
I'd want more ...

I'm not sure, but I would try to way the positives and negatives. Is the new job worth the extra money? If its too much a hassle it may not be worth the money. I don't know how much 5% is anyhow?? Is that a good amount?
