I want to quit my job. I hate being here but the pay's
good, I've applied to other places but I want to get up
right now and go home. Ive felt this way for a long time.

They fucked me over by not giving me benefits when Ive been
here for 3 yrs. 4 in June. I hate it, but I need the money.

I know I'm not alone on this-I'm need a other than
family/friends opinion.

you've already answered your own (implied?) question by
posting this thread. if you're not happy with what you're
doing, find something else - there's far more important
things to worry about then pay.

Youre right... But in the long run im gonna be stuck with no
money then I'm going to blame myself that.

the choice is happiness/contentment or money. Sometimes you
cant have both.

What sort of job is it, can I ask?

I did the best paid job I'd ever had for about a week. I
couldn't stand it, sitting in the "IT room", under the air
conditioning, listening to these people talk rubbish ALL
DAY, the fucking coffee/tea ritual when you were either
offered a cup or expected to make one every two minutes, and
then the boss who everyone jokes about being incredibly
cross and rude to everyone and I just thought "Well I don't
have to fucking take this arrogant fucking prick bellowing
at me" and I walked away. Plus it was in a shit hole, I hate
West London.

I luv ya dana-dane! :)

what if you took a lower paying job? How would that affect
your finances? Are you living by yourself or are your
expenses split with another individual?

I've been in your situation before and time and time again i
choose happiness. There is no point in going and doing
something you hate just because it pays good money (IMO)

I have found it more rewarding to love my job and the people
there. It makes it easier to get up in the morning and the
days usually go by faster.

I work at Florida International Univ. Entering transcripts
And many other things-they promised me full-time w/benefits.
And they arent. Which makes me think Ok, I'll go back to
school full time and work part-time here but FACK! I dont
get along with anyone, my old bestfriend and i dont speak so
this place really blows. Its not even my career job. I want
to go back to school full time then start my career not
allowing this fuckin rat-hole to bring me down...

But then I think "dana, youre moving to fast"

I'm in this situation, I don't know what to do. Well I would
leave, I just can't find anotherr job that'd be any betterr.
I'd take less money, but it's not like the drrop would be
huge I'm only a couple of quid overr minimum anyway.
