Hi All,
I realise this may be a bit similar to the motivated in your day job thread but here goes....
Ive been employed in my job for 3 months. For what it is (pretty much unskilled labour), it pays very very well. There is plenty of work available (im casual) and there is plenty of overtime. the company is quite understaffed, so much so that they have asked whether or not I'd like to go permanent.
This should be great- security, good pay etc.
Problem is, there is very little mental stimulation. It can be quite boring and repetitive, and I took the job knowing it isnt ideally what I want to do.
So the problem is- how do you decide between the good paying boring job (and the lifestyle/freedoms/investment opportunities it allows) and the lower paying stimulating job (with hope fully more career progression)?
