[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What are the best jobs/fields where you put in your 8 hours, that's it, and the work isn't very stressful? I have a 2 year old and a very demanding job. My husband is a bit of a workaholic. I feel my mental and physical health deteriorating, and I need to make a change. I want to keep working, but not like this.

For context: currently a director at a nonprofit and making $110k/year. Would want to take no more than a 25% pay cut for less stress.[/quote]

Nonprofits are the worst.

Depends. I am a major gifts officer at a large nonprofit you have heard of. Prior to this job, I primarily worked at small nonprofits with a fundraising team of 2-3 people. That sucked. This job is good because I am paid a competitive salary, great benefits, ample room for professional development and growth. The smaller nonprofits knew they needed fundraisers but didn't focus on how they could create programming that people wanted to pay for. Also you often just sat in the same role, with no hope of promotion, for years at a time. When you work at a large nonprofit with more resources it is better.[/quote]
