[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Save your money from day 1, and watch your expenses. Strive to get to a position where you can walk away from a job if need be. Odds are, you will really want/need to at some point--either your integrity is being threatened, or your health/sanity. Don't become dependent on a company for your survival.[/quote] This is a great one. DH and I are both at jobs for 20 years, and[b] much of our happiness and success comes from knowing we could walk away if we needed to. We’ve always felt that knowledge has allowed us to stay saner and do better in our jobs - which is wh[/b]y we’ve had such a long successful run. [/quote] It's all about psychology. "In any situation the person who appears to care the least has the most power". Companies find people with a take it or leave it attitude confident, and confidence is an admired trait. Think positive feedback loop.[/quote]
