[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would be very careful because a 4-year-long job is an important reference for you. I would probably try to tough it out. Are your days full? If you have time in the day that you are filling with extra stuff (not directly related to day-to-day functioning), maybe you could talk to them about cutting those hours and taking some time for yourself (take a class, go to the gym, volunteer) so that there is part of your day you enjoy.[/quote] This is really good, and smart, advice. It's only a few more months OP, and i bet the family would rather work with you to keep those months stable and easy for them. Maybe there is a compromise solution in here.[/quote] This would mean cut pay so she should suffer even more? [/quote] I have no idea what it would mean - that would be for OP and her employers to figure out. I just think it's a really good idea to at least have a conversation w/ them about the next few months. I would imagine they would be interested in keeping OP, rather than having to deal w/ a short-term solution. And perhaps there is a version of a compromise that would work for OP also. Or she can just find another job and leave - she has the right to do that. I just think the pp raised a really good point about the long-term reference potentially being quite important for OP in the future.[/quote]
