Want to leave this industry but will need to suffer a huge pay cut to go into another industry and my household expenses does not allow that to happen. Its so frustrating.....

          Currently staying in a non-challenging job with lower pay. Scared to make a move cause here, can go home on the dot and no stress.

                Heee, peapot, it's Tuesday today and I'm still recovering from the weekend.

                One more FTWM reporting here...and in a similar dilemma. The mortgage doesn't allow me to stop work although I'd love to.

                Mebbe just downgrade hoh...but property expensive whichever way you look at it! Sigh!

                    This sounds so familiar. :lol:

                    In our case, we did some refinancing to shorten the term and I think we need to work for another minimum 15 years - 20 years and we are completely clear off our mortage debts.

                    We also intend to keep our 5 yr old car for another 5 years so that we can save more $.

                    My wish is to stay healthy and be able to keep my job (hint : don't get retrenched), continue to do something that I enjoy, work with nice people and have work life balance for the next 15 -20 years. 🙏

                      Not forgetting I am actually hoping that one of my kids become a doctor? dentist? haha so that I can work as a receptionist/ cashier/ accountant in their clinic when I retire.


                      Anyway... I don't see that potential at this point :stupid: :lol:
