What will you do if your husband keep on advicing to continue working even you told him you don't like the job

Question

I am now more than 3 years in my job but i keep on murmuring to my husband that i really have trouble about my job. There are times that this is the cause of our quarrel. I really don't like my boss, my salary is very low, the invironment that i'm working with is really not healthy, my co worker's attitudes are intolerable. But one thing was nice, i can earn extra money because i have sideline from there. But my husband always told me not to leave my job because we still need it. Sometimes i can say my husband is after only of the money, not my happiness. He said he is just looking for my future.

Answer 1

start looking for another job so then you can afford to quit- dont quit before you have something else lined up- are you sure he isnt just concerned about your finances- most couples cant afford for one person to quit their job in America today.

Answer 2

Staying at a job that makes you miserable will only make your life miserable. Start looking for change, and quit the job after you have something lined up.

Or, if it is impossible to change your life while you're still working, then ask to work part-time. If your employer won't allow this, then you might have to just up and quit and trust that you can find something else. Be brave, believe in yourself. SInce you have a husband that is working, it makes it a million times easier than a single person who has to do the same thing (so you won't need as much courage as they would).

The reason your husband it advising against it, probably, is because most men (myself included) feel trapped by our jobs and by our sense of duty to provide for ourselves and families. To just 'quit' would be irresponsible, and we can't allow ourselves to do that. So if our partner gets the option to do that, it can make us jealous, even ANGRY, and resentful. We want that kind of freedom....

(in fact every human being HAS that freedom, but we don't always realize it or allow ourselves to have it. Men, especially, have been denied that freedom of thinking).

I had to finally switch to part time work, because I was losing my mind. Now I love my life, even if my job is still so-so. Its only 3 days a week, I've cut back on expenses to compensate for the lost income, and I have time to get my own business off the ground....

Answer 3

Don't stay at a job that is stressing you our or causing any other unhealthy things.. Your husband needs to think more about how you feel not $$.. There are other jobs out there if you need one so bad your husband keeps pushing it.. Better work enviornments and more money.. I would quit if you are this unhappy about the job.. That's just me though..

Answer 4

Your husband is being very reasonable. If you can't afford to not work, then you shouldn't just quit your job and leave him with all the responsibility. You should look for another position while you're working at this one.

Answer 5

you're missing the point. no one has a gun to your head to keep the job.
you have a llowed your self to get sold cheaper than you need .
you need to increase your worth to the market place (get new better training).
you are not seeing what i see - a begger given an extra cup of soup thinks they got it good.
stop that thinking. your job s.u.c. s your life out of you.
get a broom for a backbone change your life -you ain't a slave.
as for need the job - no way - you need a budget , sell any car you got loans on get p.o.s. for cash. visit daveramsey.com to learn what you haven't about money. turn the tv off you don't get paid to watch it. get your man a 2nd and 3rd job so you can get learned to earn.
now put up or be quiet.

Answer 6

Well, if your husband feels that financially you are unable to leave your job, then, find another job before you leave. Put in applications and send resumes. Find something you could live with and like better. Then, put in your notice and leave.
