@shiro_ger and @snow19, I struggled with the decision of NPL and quitting. For NPL, I am not confident I have strong reasons to justify to the layers of hierarchy in my corporate world. Do such reasons stick well with bosses that are trying to get max deals cut by end of financial year? For quitting, I do need the paycheck and I can't command the same pay elsewhere due to the unique nature of my work. These two things are constantly on my mind these days. Today, I finally mustered the energy to talk to a colleague about my stress and he also said that I must decide whether the next promotion or next child will bring me more happiness. Both are not certain and both do not come with effort. Though in my line of work, promotions do come over time while babies don't![]()
Bunnymuimui, i tink you really need to think it through which is more impt. If i were in your shoes and its abt giving up a promotion (not d job) to exchange for lesser work stress, my choice is very clear. But what's next if *touchwood* this cycle is not successful? How about converting to part time for say a year?
I resign from my previous job to concentrate on baby making. Heng it succeeded. Now i am on 1-yr part time coz i wanted lesser stress when i start to cycle. If it fails n i really 12 try again, i prob hve to be upfront to my boss abt me doing ivf. Tts is also d reason why i choose to join a ministry. It is more pro-family.
