Hi! I’m working for a company as yard labourer on a specific project for half a year already. Pay is nice, as well as my boss in that department. I saw an opening for a shop hand, same company different work location and boss, and I feel like it would be a good stepping stone to become heavy duty tech apprentice. I just feel guilty about leaving my job right now because I was hired by my current boss with literally no experience. And as far as I know, I need to talk to my boss first if I want to apply in that position and I feel like he wont allow that cause he says its hard to get guys sign for the job cause you need to travel hours away and stay there for many days.

What should I do? Im literally confused right now.
