HSFBfan Posted September 13, 2018 Report Share Posted September 13, 2018 I am miserable at my job and want to leave. The problem is I need my health insurance to take care of some personal things. So I stay at my job and be miserable everyday or leave and have no insurance and not be able to take care of what I need to take care of. Any suggestions?

concha Posted September 13, 2018 Report Share Posted September 13, 2018 The current job market is arguably the best it's been in decades. There are more want ads out there than folks looking. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or do most expect some sort of productivity out of candidates? 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you smack random folks on the head with a bike lock, I understand the promotion potential is virtually limitless. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude you say you have health issues where you need insurance. Why leave your job and forfeit health coverage? So what if it’s a month or two or three? Network, submit resumes, etc. You’ll get something else eventually. In the meantime, suck it up and keep working until a better offer comes along! That’s just life. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. In my world you need to be a responsible adult and look out for yourself which means, to wit: don’t give up a paycheck unless you know you have another one coming in so you can live, keep your health insurance so you can take care of yourself, keep your job so you can keep contributing to your 401k, etc. Life is about short-term sacrifices for larger happiness. You suck it up in a job you don’t like for a bit so you can find a better one you do like. So you can have money to be able to do the things you enjoy on weekends, etc. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may be wrong but in these posts it always seems like you’re looking for some type of job (and life) where every moment is rewarding and joyful and non-stressful; where everyone gets along and agrees with you, etc. That doesn’t exist. Life is messy and a grind and downright unenjoyable at times - people die, you gotta pay the mortgage every month, your wife annoys the hell out of you some days, your clients are PITAs asking you to do unethical things, etc. But that’s balanced out by moments of small happiness (like when Bergen stomps a mud hole in Bosco this year or you spend time with friends at a bar getting wasted) and great joy - like when your kid is born or says “Daddy” for the first time. And there are people (just look at this board) who have wildly different views and backgrounds and are infuriating at times. But that’s all part of the spice of life and makes things interesting. You really need to recalibrate your expectations. There’s a lot of good I’m sure, but I think you’re getting in your own way with lofty and unrealistic expectations. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes life should be rewarding and if it isnt than why be alive. If it is constant misery why be here. Life cannot be miserable 24/7. I dont have a wife thank God. Another pain in the ass that I dont need. And I'll never have a kid. Thays just another pain in the ass. My expectations are simple.......live life to enjoyment and die I am trying my best to get on some sort of mental health disability so this way there will be no more expectations on me for the rest of my life 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly I went back to school to be a paralegal. I have succeeded in becoming one. I work as a paralegal. It is a miserable profession for me. I get absolutely no joy or satisfaction out of it. I dont look forward to even getting up in the morning. So after saying all that the answer to that question will always be idk. I dont find work satisfying or whatever the word is. Just like school never found that too interesting either. My dream job was always to work as a sports commentator like on the local sports radio network. It's almost impossible to get so I threw that dream away a long time ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
