My husband thinks I should leave my high-paying job because I'm constantly stressed and bringing work home. I don't hate my job, but I know I'm not the same person I was before. How do you know when enough is enough?

  • Family first

  • why do you bring work home? do you have hard deadlines that must be met? if not, do not bring work home, it will still be there in the morning for... you to pick up when you get to the office.

  • Learn to plan your work schedules within the normal operations hours. It is not also healthy for you to keep working beyond normal working hours... everyday. You are ruining your life. Find time to be with your spouse and family. It's not being a good employee to carry work home. If you fail to complete work all the time it's either you are overloaded and your supervisors need to rebook at your job description or you may be failing to delegate to your juniors if at all you have. Worse still you may not be working hard during normal hours hence failing to meet targets and you end up carrying work home. Check your work culture  more

  • The company you are working from is not a well established because a company always follow time in its operations. On the other side if you are... failing to meet targets within the stipulated time of operations set by the company you are the problem.  more

  • Perhaps "enough" is not necessarily the point at which you start to hate your job. It may be the point at which what the job gives you no longer... justifies what it is consistently taking from you. The fact that your husband has noticed a change in you is worth paying attention to, but the decision still needs to be yours. You might ask yourself: "f nothing about this job changed over the next 12 months, would I willingly continue living and working this way?" Of this answer troubles you, it may not automatically mean resign. It may simply mean something now needs to change. more

  • Leave everyone; no one is perfect, but you can lead in the perfect way of minimization and maximization. You have good intentions to leave your... husband, and your husband is good to leave life with, with or without you. Have good intentions without devoce and any conflict. more

  • Who's pressuring you to bring work home? My guess is, You? It appears that your need to be in control of the work outcome is very strong. Relinquish... some of that control. Delegate. Hire an assistant. Would you rather use your "high paying salary" to enjoy life or for health-care (stroke, heart attack).
    Leave work at work. Use your commute to decompress and relieve stress. Not for work.
    If spiritual have a chat with Jesus, give him the days struggles. Play your favorite song(s). Enter your home free from work, turn off the phone and enjoy your family.
    Also, He said leave not stop working. If the job is pressuring you, update your resume and look for a similar position elsewhere. But not until you understand that there should be a dividing line between work and home life.

  • Communication ability to be on the fore. Try to understand your hus without hurting him. money is needed in future for your family.

  • When the consequences of your holding on to the job become life threatening eg if you get HBP and subsequently a heart attack-, when the thought of... being financially dependent on your husband is better than your current situation-, when your family is paying the price for your work spilling over-, ask yourself- is it worth it to stay or to quit? more

  • I think one of the biggest signs is when the job consistently starts affecting who you are outside of work.
    A high salary can provide security and... opportunities, but if the stress follows you home every day and begins affecting your relationships, health, or ability to enjoy your life, it’s worth taking seriously.

    I wouldn’t necessarily resign immediately. I’d first look at whether boundaries, workload changes, time off, or even a different position within the company could improve things.
    At the same time, there’s nothing wrong with quietly exploring other opportunities. Sometimes knowing you have options can provide clarity about whether you actually want to stay.

    A successful career should support the life you’re building—not gradually consume it. When the people closest to you start noticing that you’re no longer yourself, that’s probably a signal worth listening to.
