Giovanniland Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 A fairly important question for life choices. Pick an option and optionally post your reasoning! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nox Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Money can be exchanged for things to ameliorate a bad job. (Like bribing a doctor for a paid leave of absence!) Enjoying one's work doesn't help a ton when coming home in -7 weather to a building that doesn't have any heat - or with mine and my wife's penchant for fancy dinners Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatimya Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 I accidentally voted the 2nd option instead of the 1st,anyways I'd rather work at a good paying job that I hate than a poor paying one that I love, why? well because I can still have hobbies even if I'm still working, I can use the money I get to do the things I love, so in the end I still get to do what I love and get a wad of cash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarkov Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 In the end I don't really care about gaining money. As long as I have necessary money to get by comfortably, it's all good. That, and a behavioural thing that comes with the autism - if I'm not interested in something, I won't/can't focus on it. It's an attention thing. I transfix on things I'm interested in to the point of obsession and the opposite is true if I'm uninterested. Being rich in a job I hate would basically be nigh-impossible, if not impossible outright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saranzio Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 So long as the bad part of the job isn't working 170 hours a week I'd rather just have disposable income and tough it out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giovanniland Posted January 27 Author Share Posted January 27 It's been a question I've been personally thinking of as I study, but I'm inclined to take the second option (not really poor, but lower-income) for it means to spend a lot more time of my life doing something I like rather than the jobs everyone wants to take here.
