Work work work and more work

[Harry T]

Put simply do we live to work, or work to live ? Iv always been one of the latter, if i didnt like what my Employer was doing or it didnt fit with my lifestyle i simply changed jobs, thats not to say i didnt understand why things have to change its simply that i didnt/dont live to work.. while its admirable that you have bettered yourself Steve by staying with your employer for so long, thats not something that i have never been able to do, dont get me wrong wherever i have worked i have given 100%, and in many instances much more than that, double shifts, worked 24 hours continually, worked 7 weeks x 12 hour night shifts without a night off, put simply whatever Iv earned Iv earned, because again in this life no-one ever knocked my door and said here you are H, here,s something for nothing.

It's nice to think what is yours you have earned​ but a little extra like a lotto win would be great,
Commitment to a company does not work this day and age plus i am to old to change my ways after nearly 40 years in the same job.
It pays well but money is not everything.
