How does work make you feel today?

Question for you all...I'll give two choices below, and let me know what you'd choose. It's putting to test a debate on job satisfiers....

Job A: Dream job, high responsibility, great location but you make 25% less than what you currently make.

Job B: A horrible job, whether that's mindless, bad environment, etc.Low responsibility, but you make 50% more than you make now.

What choose you?

I would stand pat more than likely. I couldn't take a financial reducation at this time so A is out. I would consider B from a financial standpoint, at this time, but would really have to consider and work through the negatives and determine if there was a means to an end there.

 

[BUCKYLE]

A. Every time.

Considering I make barely anything as is, A is only an option if it would lead to equal or higher pay in the near or not too distant future. I pretty much did B to come back to Orlando, minus a massive pay jump (it was more, but only by a tiny bit). Likely take door C, no change.

A.

I would take 50% of what I took home last year to have a less stressful job and be able to live in CBUS.

In the long run, more money just isn't worth the stress and strain that you'll gain in scenario B.

Unless you're under crippling debt, A. In 40 years you're not going to look back and think "being able to buy all that shit I don't need was definitely worth having an awful life."

My entire life leading up to now has all been to ensure that when the 99% rise up and strike down the 1%, I'm on the winning side. I'm not about to throw all that away for a stressful job.

You hyphened the wrong words. So fuck off pretend namby-pamby-pinko-commie-usurper.

Yeah so I'm seriously considering quitting my job and just traveling for a few months. I have more than enough money to do this. But I won't have a job.. scary thought at 26.

Do it.

 

[3074326]

Do it.

That's where I'm leaning. Been thinking about this for a few months.

Wish I was in that position. I could use the personal time and crossing some things off the to-do list in bulk, but such is life.

EDIT: In other words, do it.

You're 26, you have a degree, you don't have any kids that you know about or claim. Do it while you can. It gets much harder once you find a job you like or have kids.
