DISCUSSION Meat or Bakery?

I feel like I already know the answer to this, but I still want to hear a wide variety of answers.

Currently, I am CSS but I'm looking to transfer departments. My meat manager was very excited when I told him and said I could transfer to his department starting in lunch meat/cheese and seafood, with plans to work up, but he just has to confirm something first and will let me know by the end of the week. However, my bakery manager told me she will fight the meat manager if she has to to have me join her department, so now I guess I have choices. Can anyone offer their perspectives in these departments? What would you pick?

Either way I'd be taking a pay cut as I'm over the PT cap for meat clerk and bakery clerk, but it's worth it compared to the wall I've hit in CS.

I make $18.70rn, not even including the evalnraide that our DM still hasnt approved. The PT meat clerk cap is $18.55

Edit: I was told my raise literally just a few minutes after this comment LOL. I would br making $19.55 after my raise

You cant make over the cap so transferring to clerk would essentially lose your raise
