What about staying at a job you enjoy but the money isn't good?
The bad days at work would really really suck imo



Whats keeping you there?... is it the fear of the unknown? I.e. new job?
I can't think of a job I would enjoy. Being shaqaalo sucks
See I was of that same opinion for a long time but the experience of working in my current work place has changed my view. Without shaqo and shaqaalo the world would not function. You see, shaqo is our contribution to society... our society is like a big village and every person/trade/profession (e.g lawyers, plumbers, security personnel, teachers, border control, street sweepers) plays a role in ensuring the smooth running of our society.

For the record, I enjoy my job but the people around it are real snakes.

Doesn't have to a pyramid scheme but sounds like the best idea :up:

I don't think i could ever be my own Boss. Do you know what it would take to wake me up from a night of sleep? I need an executive threatening to sack me to keep me on my toes.

:lol: @ die in a ditch... being an entrepreneur is good too, beats being an employee. High risk, high reward :Shrug:

Motivation



Maybe having the life sucked out of you can be the perfect motivation. So work on your business venture while remaining with what motivated you in the first place.

Shift starts at 8 to 4. I come in at 930

Lunch starts at 12, I leave 30 minutes earlier

Browse the internet 90% of the time

My director calls sick days "well days"..... basically dont come in if your not having a good day

Absenses are barely recorded by admin.

Get every other Friday off and bonus vacation days if I ask.

Don't mind if im bored af or dont enjoy the work. I got it hella easy. I dont believe in that "love what you're doing" nonsense. Do you love the money and environment?

It depends i have jumped jobs if the difference is around 250 Euros some people do it u also have to look at the distance do you go by car to your work or by train
Some times the your co workers are just to fun to leave. Now i want to work less Money is important when u dont have it but the older you get the less important it get if you also have other sources of income now the last 2 years i only work 28 hours a week. If you dont enjoy a job and u stay there just for the money than the money must be really good in contrast what is out there.. if you earn 4000 Euros a month and u have to go back to 3000 Euro or 2800 than than there is a huge difference u have to enjoy your work or else u will be unhappy and u will be forced to go to Dakhtarka sheekeyee


Marquis network marketing is not to bad but some of them are scams there was one good one i found back in 2006 made some good Money in the first 3 months marki danbe bay wixi kala daadaatay lol
