i'm @ a point where it would be dumb to quit this job.

i get paid enough where my wife was staying home 2/the kids and i was still able to cover all of our bills w/a little left over.

and the benefits....esp. the insurance is insanely cheap and covers quite a bit.

the job is to take care of my family....that's the most important thing and i'm not going to jepordize their well being for my own.

Well someone's mature...and a good father.

Have you tried looking for another job? Though...I think it'll be frustrating to have to figure out what you hate about another place.

i know it's probably not a lot compared to what others make...but i'm making $17/hour w/o a college education. and like i said, that's covering all of our bills.

i'd be hard pressed to find another job starting off that high.

and i just found another perk.

i work for an insurance company, our bank is offering mortgage refinancing for employees.

i can refinance our original loan down to 15 years, get a 3.75% rate, and it would take our payments from $785/month to $760/month!!!

Wow, you are in a great position right now. I'd wish I could make at least $10 (prefferably $14). Heck, there are people with degrees making less than that.

Yeah that's pretty good for no college. I also don't care for my job but I'm at $15 without college myself and it pays a big chunk of our bills. We get by ok right now but when my fiancee becomes a nurse and brings in considerably more then me maybe I could think of getting a new job.

ARE YOU KIDDING?! i make $18 an hour (same as you, no college) - not married, no kids, no mortgage, no car payments and i still somehow have like, no money left after each check

think that's a sign i spend too much on useless crap and blus?

and rent and all bills comes to about $650 all together per month.
