[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Inertia. Leaving a job is scary. Doubly so if you're looking at a salary cut. [/quote] It's this. I have a number of friends in this situation. They've complained about these jobs for years (in some cases, two decades), their spouses hate their jobs, plus the company has a name that would help them get any number of very well-paying jobs with better work-life balance. But they are afraid of trying something else, discovering they don't like it or can't deal with the paycut (there's pretty much always a paycut), and then having the option of returning to their current company foreclosed. The longer it goes on the worse it gets because they become really entrenched at their current company. They mostly just talk to colleagues who have also been there forever and it confirms what they already fear. Even when it's obvious that they should not be listening to these people. They also create lifestyles that are reliant upon that income.[/quote]
