Don’t focus too much on comparing hours worked. Pay usually reflects responsibility, experience, decision-making, negotiation, and the value of the... role—not just workload. I’d use it as motivation to understand what skills or responsibilities got them there, then make a plan to move toward a higher-paying role myself. more

Your focus is best placed on what you can influence: the value you create, the quality of your contributions, and the professional reputation you are... building. It is understandable to feel frustrated when compensation appears misaligned, but your manager’s salary is not the most productive measure of your own career progress. You may not see the full scope of their responsibilities, pressures, relationships, or organizational expectations. Use this moment to assess whether your current role recognizes your impact and supports your goals. If it does not, address that directly and strategically. Continue to contribute in meaningful ways, support colleagues, lead with integrity, and make your work visible through outcomes—not resentment. Focusing on excellence, service, and measurable value builds credibility and influence. Over time, that kind of professional capital can create leverage for advancement within your organization or open opportunities beyond it. more

What's the reason for the refusal to move? If it's for the welfare of the kids or losing their own job, it's genuine, but aside from that, It's... baseless more

You go work, you can always come check on her. Going to work doesn't mean you are dumping her. It means you want life to move on but in a more... meaningful way.  more

Good workers are the first to leave a toxic job. That's why it gets worse, because the people that know better left. Don't look back

It really depends on the fact on the ground, are you really that bad that you are being criticized that way? Quiting wasn't the solution, the solution... was humility and determination with boldness to turn your boss around. more

Compare closely the terms and conditions of employment of the two organizations, what you will lose after such a long service. Above all do some due... diligence of the new organization. Is it really worth it even though the salary is higher? more

Do not leave work unless its honestly what you want.

If you worked at a McDonald's, you get paid an hourly rate. $8 an hour. Think about how many hamburgers you make, how many get sold because you showed... up to work. The reason your pay is based on your time and not output because at $7 a hamburger, that's like $1000s of dollars mcd would have to pay. That's the difference between your pay and your output. All companies do this and it's safe to say yours is too. Workers are having their value stolen virtually everywhere. That's the mentality you need to have to know that the company is not your friend. It is a contract and you are always going to get the raw end of the deal. So if the company doesn't want to fire you over a mishap then you DEFINITELY don't have to care because they COULD very well pay you a livable wage but they won't so don't sweat it.  more

Mistakes are a part of life, work, and growth. The key is to learn from it and use it as a tool for improvement. I absolutely love that you care... enough about your work that it has an impact on you, but as your boss said it's time to move on. Otherwise it's likely to cause you to make more mistakes because you're obsessing over a past one. Stay there, and reward your supervisors faith in you! more

Don’t let your ego fool you, your ego has never been your friend. You can first take up that offer and use it for survival as you look elsewhere. Good... luck. more

It is a way of cutting cost, they still needed your services but were not able to pay or maybe your employer out of goodwill just extended a hand of... favor instead of leaving you unemployed out there. it is you to find out the answer, but stay focused do your work and if they are taking advantage of you karma will deal with them and you will find a better opportunity, just be patient. more

You just need need to respect him because he is your boss

documentation. push for proper meeting notes being shared after meetings, follow-up emails, wiki updates or any internal documentation you guys use... with your work. it may sound stupid but writing things down requires full context being included and I bet you'll either start to understand their reasoning better or help them see more clearly why that one is a bad idea more

To me what you did is right even though you are not sure of what's coming your way one thing I will encourage you with,what you did will surely pay.

Most people do that. Staying in a career makes them feel complete and independent

What happens if the partnership is altered? Divorce, death, break-up or terminal illness can all change the situation in a heart beat (or lack of).... Then what would you do, what's your back-up plan? I suggest you stay employed at some level, increase your savings, open a retirement account or 2. Use your money as a vacation or rainy day fund.  more

Every day Friend be tough

Please I also need a remote job... How can one get one please

this clearly indicate that your employer felt that you were being overpaid in the first place, prove your worth do the new assignment diligently and... now you have a footstool or upper hand to ask for a raise.  more

First give it time and then you look for another job

Emotional decisions rarely end well for the one who makes it. You made a decision based on what you were seeing and comparing from others. “Comparison... is the thief of joy” show gratitude in what you have first. Appreciate the job first and be thankful for it. More will come. It appears you didn’t appreciate the job and only wanted to work remote from the comfort of your home. Now your home as remote as you can be but unemployed.  more

Don't let the spiled milk hold you down.
You didn't think it through before making your decision, but life moves on.
And i just have a really good... business you can hop on while you're still hunting. It's time flexible and can work around your schedules.

Let me know .

The problem is not the job unless he has his own reasons.

How is it affecting your family life? Long hours, constant travel, stress or canceling family plans. Seek ways to address or change items on the... list. How much is your doing? Volunteering for extra tasks, saying, Yes, when you should be saying, No, or not today. Choosing work over family. If your choices are the problem, a new job won't fix it. Be honest with yourself, why don't you put family first?  more

I agree with this statement. It is important to first understand the reason behind any situation before taking action. Doing so leads to informed... decisions, reduces misunderstandings, and helps ensure that the right solution is applied to the actual problem. more

Why are you bypassed?

Without any alternative employment leaving the safe job is not a sensible decision

sorry, the answer got cut off.
We do not know if there was any truth in the accusation. If you quit, there will always be suspicion. If the rumors... were false, you needed to stay and rebut them. If they are true, you better come up with a good story why you left the job. The rift between you and your wife may persist a long time. Consider family counseling. Good luck. more

Your boss did not say that he was lucky to have you on the team. So it sounds like you are not being appreciated and they think they are doing you a... favour by you spending a large proportion of your waking hours working for them.

I would not quit yet. But start looking for an alternative.
If you find something better, then take it. more

That’s a tough conversation to have. A stable job is valuable, but feeling appreciated, recognized, and having opportunities to grow are important... parts of a fulfilling career too.

Sometimes moments like this cause people to start exploring what other options are available—whether that’s a new career path, a side opportunity, or simply creating another source of income.

You or someone you know may be looking for more flexibility and room to grow. I’m always open to connecting, sharing what I do, and having a conversation to see if it could be a good fit.

Im confused.
Did you sacrifice your career or your relationship?
What exactly did you loose?

Not yet

Also, it's important to know that, the ONLY constant thing in life is change. A company may have a terrible reputation because of some toxic people... most times in the leadership that mess up the whole place with their toxiciity and negative energy, if those people are taken out of the equation, everything changes instantly, so this may also be the case with your friend, so checking timelines and if possible checking in with present employees helps in making decisions like this especially in fast paced world like ours. For example I shouldn't be judging a product by a negative 5years old review someone wrote, that wouldn't be so fair, cos even you the buyer, you are most likely not who you use to be 5 years ago....Lol 😂 more

Reviews on an employer can be tricky because rarely do people expand on the whole truth let alone if and how the contributed to the demise lol. It... also depends on the persons mindset, outlook on life, work, what they prioritize (which will differ from you) and much more. Moving forward, I would never turn a job based on reviews. Go on the interview and do you homework on the facts of the company and come prepared with the right questions to ask an employer (including follow up and clarifying questions), then make an informed decision for yourself from how you feel leaving the interview and their responses to your questions. more

Wow.... Anyway to do it on your own?
