<human>: Give me the gist of the text in a nutshell

I am a 22 year old college grad from a medium sized state school with a degree in biosystems. I currently hold a lab tech job making $17.78 an hour for a contractor, with no room to grow. It is an hour away from my residence but, I vanpool there so I do not have to put the miles on my car. However, I am miserable, I come home depressed 3 out of the 5 days a week.

My grandfather offered me a job at the family business, better money and family comes first.  Like I said, a great starting salary $50k+, but also an hour away with no possibility to vanpool so I'd have to drive 2 hours a day possibly more because 95 north in NOVA is brutal. 

Or third option and find a job here where I live with less commute, a little bit more money. 

I've heard the normal stuff before, "i'd kill for a chance like that, blah blah blah." but everything changes when you have to work with your family members every day.

My girlfriend and I would ultimately move closer to whichevery job I continue with, either north for family or stick with contractor, or stay for third option.

Any advice would be greatly appriciated.
<bot>: 1)job as lab tech, pays low, miserable, far away, but I vanpool. 2) family company, high pay, but have to drive and deal with family more often.
