Do you think your job is more important than your health or

Is taking care of your health more important than your job.

Very often people are stuck in a job just for health insurance to care for their health that is being destroyed by their job.
Been there, done that, and I can sympathise with it.

@Mindful Well I went back to school and got a degree. I started a new career that has been building but this pandemic has changed that and now I'm working to figure out a new career. Never ending :/

@Earthwrap may I ask what you studied? I hope you persevere whatever your vision or skill!

@Mindful environmental science.
Thank you!
My job is taking care of other people's health, at the expense my own. It's hard to say who's health is more important. 🤷‍♀️

Sigh. May our universe give you the a combination of strength,peace and wisdom to balance both.@TheFlippantSide
@Mindful Thanks.

Some days, a little Xanax does the trick. 😐

And that too!@TheFlippantSide
Never compromise your health.
Health first. There’s a million jobs out there and only 1 body for me.

Great that you know your priority so well. You are not easily deterred. @DecafD
@Mindful It goes with the age old saying that money can’t buy health.

If you aren’t healthy you can’t do your job well, period.

@TexChik 🤗
No. But my health isn’t important either.

@MsAnnThropy feeling better while you are alive is nicer than suffering physically while you are alive. But that’s just how I feel.
@Mindful I don’t really feel that great while alive. So... 🤷🏽‍♀️

My job is stressful by nature, (like most everyone's) not sure that my health is priority over my ability to earn money.
Mindful · 56-60, F
Chances are you are healthy.@Iwillwait

Ultimately, if my job does more harm than good to my health, then I’ll quit it at the drop of a hat.

I worked in aged care for a long time. I'd still be doing it if it hadn't stuffed my back.

When younger and strong I suppode one can reasonably push oneself beyond the ordinary but over time as the years get on its best to start taking it a little easy.
Job comes first 🙂

Hopefully you have excellent health! @Tinkles

🤔....Health....Family....Life....Job
A tenuous balance. I can't live without either.
