Keeping 2 Job Offers Instead of Dropping 1

Hi Monkies.

In this coronavirus environment, there's a lot of uncertainty with job security. As an upcoming grad, I was fortunate to land two job offers before shit hit the fan.

The lesser of my job offers had its start date pushed back and I now have the opportunity to decline this new arrangement instead of reneging (which I originally planned to do).

I want to do the right thing and be transparent with them, but I don't know how much worse the economy will get. It would be wise to have a safety plan in case my better offer gets rescinded (due to covid), but it would also be wise to keep my professional integrity (now that I have the chance to make things right).

Any thoughts?
