would you leave your current job for one that paid double your pay but you hate the work you'll be doing?

Yes. I have bills to pay and raising 2 kids with a mortgage. It would help me put more money to my kids' college fund. Yes, I would hate it, but I hate being in financial bad shape even more.

Absolutely not. The only people that will say yes are one's that have been lucky enough to never truly hate a job (although they think they have) or if they haven't put in full time work on a consistent basis within a job they hate.

If you do something you hate on a consistent, full time basis, it won't last long no matter if you make a little or a lot. Either you will quite or do a poor job and behave in a passive aggressive manner in order to (maybe unconsciously) sabotage yourself. I mean how long can you stand to do something you truly hate for 8 hrs or more a day?

Due to the recent developments of social security, most people can expect to be working for 45 years before being eligible for retirement. To work that long at a job you hate is basically to live 1/3 of your life hating what you do. Since you sleep 1/3 of your life, that leaves only 1/3 for enjoyment. I'd rather spend 2/3 of my life enjoying my work... I'll sleep better, too.

Not if I made enough money to survive at the job I currently have. It also depends on how badly I would be hating the new job.

Definitely not. My dream job is to work someplace where I love working and being the best there. I would never trade happiness and joy for money. But hey, that's just me.

If it was essential to feeding myself and family, yes.

Otherwise, no.

Getting paid to do something you hate is only one step above not getting paid to do something you hate.

Nope

no. stick with where you are happy. even though you would have more cash its not worth it

yessssssssssssssssssss
