You’ll have to define your own success/ and what it means to you.
This is what I’ve gone through earlier in my life. Money is important, but I feel... relationships are more important - my view only. Money is a tool.

You know when you ask strangers. Sit down and do a self-assessment. List the pros/ cons of the new position. Then list the changes to your... relationship. Are they truly job related, or were they already an issue. There some truth to the saying "more money more problems ". And you've already found out prestige and money didn't enhance your situation.  more

I would assist them if needed but not fully train them. That's what management should budget for.

first of all, look at your family's financial situation, Without the promotion, are you all okay financially to handle or run your family? Is your... husbands income enough to support you without the promotion? Is there any form of jealousy from your husband?

Your answers to all these will give directions. I do hope you get a right choice, if you are able to balance career and family, then go for it. If it comes with more money and might put your family at stake, then consider family.

Sit down with your Boss. Share with him/her that you apprecaite the promotion, however there is one thing that is concerning you. Share with them that... your marriage is your top priorty, will I be able to perform this new duty with in the same hourly framework that I have been working, if yes, that's great! If the new position will require more hours, I may have to decline the offer. Mr/Mrs Boss, I do hope you understand ! Thank You more

Just keep moving dear,it's not easy but with God all things are possible everything will become a story someday.

The best thing in life is just ,letting go and pick yourself up plus steadily move on.

What exactly does "more housework" mean? Who was doing it before now? Why is doing housework problematic?.... In what specific way is it affecting... your relationship? We need a lot of perspective to comment properly on this issue more

Why are women so lazy today... If he's handling the bills then freaking clean it's simple. Teach the kids not to mess up give them structure. ... Geez... Yes as you should and you should want too.. but I will say if you have a full time job ... Cut hours...to balance maybe more

Well said

From a counselling perspective, if you and your wife agreed that you would take a less demanding job to handle childcare, it is unfair to later make... you feel inadequate for honouring that agreement. Bringing a lower income, raising children, and supporting your spouse’s career are responsibilities, not signs of a lack of ambition. However, attraction cannot be forced. Your wife is entitled to her feelings, just as you are entitled to dignity and appreciation. Have an honest conversation about her new expectations and whether you still want the same things from your marriage. If she has genuinely lost her attraction to you and found it elsewhere, let her go in peace. Do not neglect your children, abandon your values, or constantly prove your worth to remain desirable; marriage must be about love.

Your worth is not measured by your salary or someone else's attraction to you. A marriage should be built on mutual respect, shared responsibility, and appreciation—not shifting goalposts. more

Have an honest conversation with your husband and explain that working from home doesn’t mean being available all the time. Set clear working hours,... establish boundaries with the children, and agree on shared family responsibilities. Don’t sacrifice your career growth because of assumptions you can address together. Your marriage should support your growth, not force you to choose between career and family. more

That's sound funny, this is the opportunity many people are looking forward to get so just talk to your to your husband to have good reasoning

Yes Manager is wrong. Manager is not an ideal leader. Maybe more self serving

Your boss sounds like an idiot.
Find a different job.

St. Peter says, "You're in luck. God has an opening and can see you right away." So, the man goes up tp God and says, "I believed in you and ... abandoned me." God tilts his head an says, "I sent you a car, a boat and a helicopter. What else did you want?" God may provide, but it's up to us to do the footwork.

A man lived close to a river. One day the sheriff drove up to his house, where a man was in his rocking on his porch. The sheriff told the man he need... to get in the car. The man replied, "I believe in God and he will provide." A little while later the water from the rising river was lapping at the man's porch. A boat came by and the man in the boat told the man in the rocking chair to get in the boat, because the river would continue to rise and the man in the rocking chair would drown. His reply was, "I believe in God and he will provide." Eventually the man had to climb on top of his roof. Just then a helicopter flew overhead and the man on the roof heard the pilot yell down to him, "This is your last chance. I'll lower the rope and you can climb up. Of course, the man once again said, "I believe in God and he will provide." Well, you guessed it, the man drowned. When he arrives at the pearly gates, he walks up to St. Peter and says, "I'm really angry and I need to speak with God." more

It's not the job it's the people

Yes, pls leave. Your wife is completely right. Ask for a time off or short sick leave or take your sick days. Since it's already affecting your... health, ask your family doctor to write you a note so that you can still be paid while on sick leave. I don't know your workplace and how sick days are handled. Speaking from my employer perspective. more

Hi Anon,
Cognitive dissonnance is arguably one of the key reasons why people leave their jobs - and many of them do so on an emotional fling. The... better way to do it is to make an exit plan in which, wherever your ambition leads you, you will not be left in a financial crisis. If you are hunting for another job, do so very discreetly. If you are preparing to go off on your own, make sure that you have alreday started it and it is sufficiently capable of sustaining you while you grow it.
After 24 years in teh corporate world, I left at teh age of 46 to start my own consultancy. Now, almost 20 years later, I am the owner of two companies, have a steady income, have a great staff complement of 8 self-sufficient people and I enjoy going to work every day! You can get all of that and more.  more

Good to be ambitious within the confine of family virtues. No wealth is enough looking at wealthy people in the world always chasing for more.... Contentment is the way to go, though not easy too. Wealth can disappear any time, so diversity is important that only come with promotion. You can not just remain in one position. You staff come and pass while you are there content only to start complaining later. Talk it over with your mate to get his or her logic but it's not worth avoiding climbing up the ladder. Frustration will be overwhelming in your final years of working life. My one cent.  more

Remember your priorities. Your health, your family, your job in that order.
If you have a new child and are taking parental leave, you should take the... leave and enjoy your new child. If you are taking leave for convenience and can manage without the leave, make your family decision. In any case, weigh your decision carefully and do what is best for you. more

Follow the company guidelines to safe you from making a decision without a back up.Some company feel one takes a leave they will make losses ,TAKE THE... LEAVE  more

Sit with your parents and digest between the two and adopt the best

I know it’s not easy thing but i believe you can manage both do not let get go bankrupt and lose everything. They loved you now it’s your turn to appreciate them back. more

So your colleague deserves to be promoted and you don't then. Why don't you quit the job so you don't feel guilty. You don't even know the promotion... waiting for these guys, it might be better than yours, so don't feel too better than everyone else early likewise your friend shouldn't feel bad about someone else's elevation. Our times are different, you didn't join the organisation the same day, it's not a must to leave the same day, so your progression can not be same time. Just do your job and quit messing around  more

In most cases most offices are suppose to be close by 4pm even meeting schedule are suppose to be within the working hours, because it's part of... work, and more so some Boses are very rude to handle in case you disagree with them, so you better seek for other opportunity,
I quit my job because of such Boss,  more

I wonder whether there's an important question to explore before deciding whether to confront your manager or leave. What exactly changed after you... communicated your boundary, and have you had an opportunity to understand why? The timing may understandably raise concerns, but it doesn't necessarily establish the reason for your exclusion. Perhaps the starting point is a conversation about your continued involvement in the project, rather than an accusation of retaliation. The response you receive may provide useful insight into what decision to make next.  more
