    Number 2 is way worse. I can always find a way to sort of enjoy a bad job, but not having wonderful marriage, family, and friends would be horrible.

    Since I'm more like option 2 (not bad as you describe, though) and hardly happy, I'd say 2 is worse.

    But I've seen people who deal with number 1 and are not happy neither. Keeping in mind that someone spends more of awake time at work or in transportation going to/from work, having a job one hates to the most can be very painful, especially if one dislikes the coworkers as well. But at the end, changing job is easier to do than changing family.

    It is more likely to invest on good family relationships than on good job. When things go bad, one (usually) gets helps from their family, not from their boss.

    you should do what you like doing. human beings tend to to do lots greater suited job on a field they love, they experience secure and experience delicate with. I trust others which you should walk. perhaps this might nicely be an incredible risk to locate a greater suited place or job and you will initiate doing what you extremely stable at or purely decide on your activity. inspect your life. What did you like doing once you have been a baby? Do you nonetheless like doing it? What might you loose in case you stop this job? yet - greater importantly - what might you do in case you probably did no longer have a job at this 2d? there are various different positions or opportunities throughout. in case you do no longer experience respected, in case you do no longer experience favored you should locate yet another job. in case you circulate to artwork on a daily basis and thinking approximately which you're a doormat, than you will "harm" your shallowness and self assurance. you're greater efficient than that, so circulate get a job the place human beings get excitement from who you're and what you do. life is wonderful. savor it my chum.

    It depends on your values. I go with 1. but the way I'm going I'll probably end up at 2.
