^^This. I just don't have the financial latitude to even consider it. I wouldn't spend one more second at my current job if I didn't need the money. So I work to live and find my peace-of-mind elsewhere. Gotta say I envy people who take a great deal of satisfaction from their work.
That's part of what makes me so sad. I'm actually grieving over work that I love. It's that atmosphere that is driving me out. Also, more and more pressure is being put on my role and I won't get any additional help. Nope. Not going to entertain that idea. Especially when my boss collects an annual bonus of $150K (on top of an $800k salary) because my colleagues and I bust our butts to make him look good.
They call me during my off hours and vacations constantly. They think I'm at their beck and call. I can't get away from it - I have no escape.
