Life is filled with work, should I quit?

in hive-150487 •  4 months ago 



If the job is great and takes all your time why should one quit? I won't. I would see it as my hobby as soon as this isn't the case you can better stop.

There are plenty of jobs? Are there? Not if it comes to me so before you tell the employer you leave it's better to check if anyone likes to hire you. Too high educated, too expensive, not interested, sorry, no vacancy and many other reasons I've heard. The thing is about work one has to live so a salary is welcome or? Important is as well to have a good working environment, co-workers, the employer and fun in what you do. If this isn't the case it will be hard to continue and it isn't worth the stress to work day and night and give up on your social life.

No matter what we do we always have to sacrifice something. If the family is important find something else. If no family and you want time for yourself, and a hobby do so. One person doesn't need as much as a family. You might earn less but it's not important since free time is unpayable. My mom said she couldn't do today what she would have liked to do when she was younger. Well, she could but she meant that it will not feel or be experienced in the same way.

All the best with your dilemma.

I believe free time is the true wealth nature has given us. Dedicating time to getting food and enjoying small pleasures is enough to live a good life. I know it’s not always so simple. I’m 52, and I’ve worked my whole life because that’s what I was taught. But then you realize stress rots inside us slowly, and you start feeling its effects. The first symptoms appear, showing us what might become of us. That’s why I decided to slow down and take care of myself. It’s not easy—you need loving people around you, otherwise, it’s harder. Unless you’re a narcissist. 🌼 @wakeupkitty

P.S. I know the contest is over, and this comment might seem out of place, but this morning, I felt like doing something. It’s been months since I wrote anything, and today it came back. I don’t even know why I’m writing this in Xiao’s comment section. I was going to delete it all—but no, Kitty taught me not to. So, hello, have a great weekend, and work to enjoy life!

Contests might expire but thoughts, words don't. You left a thoughtful and heartfelt comment. One worth reading. No matter when that is, someone will and be happy with the words you left behind.

There's a time for everything and it's enough to be.
Small pleasures are enough if they can be noticed and a creative mind can make them shine.

You are worth to be read. Don't delete your words, you would delete you.
I am super happy with every word of you and proud of you!

I hate stress and try to avoid it. Night shifts only, work at night, no phone calls except work, doorbell switched off. Stress is a killer. Work is just a method to gain what is needed to keep you alive. That's all.
Good to hear from you. I'm not too active so your comment is in time. Deleting a lot?
Have a good time, it's all that counts. Good as in enjoying yourself.

I loathe the heavy tumult that burdens the soul,
O night, sweet companion, sovereign of the whole.
The bell silenced, each vain call left undone,
For work is but the key to breathe beneath the sun.👋

Everyone works one way or another. Even just breathing is a kind of work.

That is a good remark. I had 2 jobs next to 2 volunteer and my own business and although today I no longer do this all my days are still full with "obligations" and hard work. It beats me how I handled this years ago.
Breathing, getting out of bed, shopping, waiting for others it's all time consuming and good for lack of time to...

What can I say? Iworked a lot tried harder to make up with the family (quality time, no time for me 🤔). I better write about it.
