[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My job takes me away from time with my family and fun stuff. It doesn't have many benefits (no retirement, no health insurance) and it doesn't pay me a lot - $65k last year. I'd love to do better but this is where I am after 30 years in the workforce. I like the work area (solar power). My lack of good compensation makes it a constant source of stress in my life and with my wife. It's tough to sit through a meeting this week about how we are a team and working on important stuff and all I can think about is whether to pay my health insurance on time or pile more onto the credit card. (I paid it with a credit card) When I look at my life, my work is worst part of it - 90% because of the pay. Which is all on me. Been working in the DC area since 1988.[/quote] At least you like the work. Does your wife work? Can you live cheaper, cut the cable, buy smaller car etc. I'd try to make some changes if you both are stressed.[/quote]
