i feel i NEED to quit my job and take a break…i have been thinking about it for quite sometime now..and my family feels the same that i shud take a break for like two months and start over if i want to..
y im being so restless at job is because this place is at a distance of 1.5 hrs from my home..i leave home at 8 in the morning and get back at 7…before my job my uni routine was the same…n its been 5 years i have been going thru this loop..now with all the other things in my life falling apart..i find it hard to cope with all this things alll at the same time…im developing health issues now..n the most imp thiing y im unhappy is that i dont pray while im at work..on weekends wen im at home n i pray all my prayers on time..i feel like the happiest person on earth…but wen i dnt pray i feel so down,depressed n hopeless..
i want to quit my job…take a two months break and then go for my masters…and also i want to save money for my masters..n if i work for another 4 months i can save enuff…
i just cant make a decision..
OMG i feel the same with my job, but i am actively looking for another job, if you are unhappy at work, then leave, it will continue to make you feel miserable.
Re: should i...???
i think nowadays money is quite important to make ur dreams come true. so if you really want to gor for masters go for work at least for some months so that u can save enough money for it.
in my opinion to have work and to be independent is very important in life, but if you r not satisfied with ur job and want to do something else then it´s ur choice.
Re: should i...???
yeah quit the job...jobs tou aur b mil sakti hain...y r u taking so much pain and ruining ur health..
Re: should i...???
Oh gosh Angel!! I feel the same here...I absolutely HATE coming to work...everyday I literally drag myself to work....i have to keep reminding myself that if I dont go to phir mera ghar kaisey chalegaa....i use this as a motivation in a way
atleast you only are worried about job...i also go to uni in the evening....by the time i reach home its already 11 and i wake up at like 5 in the mornnig!!
Life can be hard sometimes sweets!! but u're not the only one who is going through this
Just keep praying to ALLAH and inshallah things will get better :))
Well thats wat i doooo
Re: should i...???
its good to know that im not the only one going thru this...
i read this hadith somewhere which meant "when u have to choose between two paths choose for easier path" if i just belive in it n quit my job,make my life easier...i know i wnt be geeting this money n a lot of the luxuries i will have to limit...but i will get peace of mind,heart and soul..so wat is more imp..MONEY OR PEACE OF MIND??
Re: should i...???
well if you can afford to...then i wud def say PEACE OF MIND!!
Re: should i...???
when you are at such cross road where u cannot decide which road to take..Seek Allahs help.... do u pray namaz regularly? v. important. do istikhara and ask Allah to show u the way and guide u.
Re: should i...???
Feeling good about what you are doing is most important thing except for few circumstances when you are forced to do something due to different reasons such as you are the only one source of income in family etc but with you this does not seem to be the case.
IMO, take some break it does wonders. Think about it even if you work for next 2-3 months and save money for Masters, you will not feel good even at University. Taking rest will put you a semester and thats not a too much of a price to pay.
Re: should i...???
personally, i don't think the job is the cause of the problems in your life.
If one of your major problems is that you don't pray at work, then why not just start praying there?
Re: should i...???
im trying to start praying at work...but something in my head keeps on telling me to quit n take a break...im not supporting my family...but i feel sooo bad asking my parents for any money...i have been contributin at home since i have started my job...infact sometimes all of my salary was used up at home...i dun mind that...n if i quit its not that anyone at home is dependent on my salary...but asking my parents for money is the most difficult thing n i dnt want to go thru it..
Re: should i...???
It's not just about the job. If you feel you need a break then my best advise to you would be that you take a break and have some me time. Go travel somewhere if you can, or do something for yourself. Do some volunteer work. Make yourself feel better and then you can get another job with a much more positive you.
