<human>: So right now I am living as an aspiring actor in Vancouver, working part time as a Barista, barely making $1,200/mo. Half of which goes towards rent. That leaves $600 for groceries, my student loan payments to the bank, my student loan payments to the government, and payments to the credit card company. All together I owe about $33,000. 
I love Vancouver. I have great friends, a girlfriend, live in a great house with 3 other roommates, and I'm overall pretty damn happy here. But I can no longer survive off minimum wage.
My Dad has been working up north at the camps for an oil company making about $8,000/mo, and he says he could probably set me up with a job as a security guard making roughly $4,000/mo. It would be 12hrs/day, 7days/wk. 3 weeks on, 1 week off. He's pushing me to do it, but he HATES being there. He's just doing it because the mortgage will be paid this time next year. 
Ethically, I despise everything those companies stand for. I am very much an advocate for renewable energy and saving the environment, but at the same time I have no way of getting out of this financial hole I keep digging. I recently got dropped from my agent because the film industry is so dead here so I don't have to worry too much about getting auditions, but I feel like I'll lose touch with the craft. 
SO, do I stick around home? Or do I tough it out for 8 or 9 months and start with a clean slate?

Can you summarize the given text in a few sentences?
<bot>: Work in a hell hole up north as a security officer for 9 months and go debt free, or stay home with friends and family but stay broke?
