Greetings!
Recently I got the chance for a pretty good paying job. I was all hopeful until I looked how exactly it goes. I speanded a day there, and in summery, 12 hours a day I would sit in a mobile office with loud beeping noise and staring monitors in lamp light. It very much have a negative inpact on me, I can barely do the minimum meditation, cant do yoga there or physical any workout, any reading, drawing, writing, so nothing what I like and I aim to be better at, and evolve in it. And I was lucky this time, I was alone in the room we slept(because its always somewhere random location). I supposed to get 1-2 roommates, which would mean no meditation. And even if I have a bit of free time, I feel overly exhausted from this, yet I achived nothing jn the matters of what I like.
So, I have a few days until the boss call me and decide it veather he wants me to work there or not. I really dont know if I should accept it. It pays, stable, and who knows if I ever get a chance like this again.
Oh, right, it also made my bloodsugar really chaotic. With the combination of stress, no lunch break, pressure and poor sleep(half the colliges party half night) it makes managing diabetes nearly impossible.
 
This is a tough decision, are you willing to sacrifice your health for more money? Some people would in a heartbeat, I myself would rather have a greater work-life balance, my sanity and health is important to me. Ask yourself what matters to you more, maybe you could stay there for as long as you can stick it out for, make as much money as possible with the higher salary, and then get a new job with similar if not higher pay than your older job but with better work conditions.

Just throwing some ideas out there. At the end of the day, you have to decide what you feel is worth it or not, sacrifices in life have to be made sometimes.
 
Sadly we have an economic system that means we need money to live. I wouldn't cut off my income without finding another job first. And I think all jobs will take your life force and exert a toll on your health. So keep your finances in order and seek better opportunities while you're at it.

I already sacrificed a big portion of my health just to get the damn college degree(that stress caused diabetes), I wouldnt do it again. Bad thing is, I cant really imagine any job that doesnt sucks away your time, energy and helath for money.
 
Keep looking. There is good and bad jobs out there. Some are more of a drain, others are sometimes less hours and less stress.

Just keep what you have for a job now whatever that may be and just keep applying and something will come through surely.

Try to be a bit more optimistic and positive here. There is alot of bad jobs out there, but there is alot of good, decent jobs that are not a drain. We just have to work towards this and get into these positions.

The job market is very bad currently, but this will bounce back. Some patience and understanding is required.

Labor is a beautiful process we are able to engage in within our civilizations, we must be grateful we have the opportunity to work and exist.
 
I wouldn't take this for 800k huf, at the end of the day it's bad if you don't like to do it.
Sad thing is, I would lilely start at 300k huf for a few years, or may 500k huf which is just slavery. I will very likely decline it
