Default Re: I dont like my job, but I make a lot of money

REALLY question how morally troubled you are about your job, versus how much is just an idealistic wish to escape an unpleasant situation.

Like Dorothy, I've worked at some places that were truly disturbing. And like she says, you don't walk out: you develop a strategy to escape. and the environment NOW is not the same as it was even a few years ago. it needs to be a REALLY GOOD strategy.

that doesn't automatically mean you're gonna end up in the same industry, OR at an entry level job! sometimes that's hard to see, but you're at the early part of your career, it sounds, so it's easier to change. instead of brokering animals, broker ____ (or however you'd describe it). Same verbs, different nouns.

you're young, i'm guessing: you're not locked into anything. but also: don't expect a job/coworkers to make you happy. that's your responsibility.
