TurboRust Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 I decided the other day after taking the store manager position a year ago, the amount of stress put on my daily life wasn't quite worth the extra pay. Therefore, I talked it over with the wife and stepped down last week, but am remaining the service manager there. I'm on vacation this week and can still help remotely, but as always if you ever need anything don't hesitate to call.

acklac7 Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 Respectable decision, best of luck. Try and stay fishing as much as possible, even through the winter, probably the best stress relief you can get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTQ B4U Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 Gotta do whats right for you, and the family man. I know exactly what your feeling right now. ^^ This. Believe me I can relate. FWIW, one of the best spends of a mere $12 I've made recently: It's a very easy read. http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51WphdVLdRL._SS400_.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

truckin Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 Goodluck, Money isn't everything........do what makes you happy. When Work starts to affect you on a personal/emotional and physical level it's time to step back and take a look at your life and whats important......Family Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TA In Progress Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 Best of luck man, I'm sure it wasn't the easiest decision. I'll be calling you soon for a set of tires for Heather's car. BTW, is Tom coming back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cordell Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 I've been where you are, I'm much happier not dealing with customers turning a wrench. I'm sure it will be a good choice for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PGH STEELERS Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 Derek, I've been thinking on doing the same thing, taking another job for less money to not deal with the stress. Sorry to hear about your work enviroment and hope things get better. I was going to stop by this week to see about getting tire for the wifes car. She has an 07 Chevy Tahoe with the Bridestone Tires (P265/65R18 Diaper A/T RH-S. Was going to ask for your suggestions on what to get her. Good luck and talk to you later.

frenchy chan Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 It's a tough decision to make. My husband has had stressful jobs and I know what it can do to the family life. Money isn't everything if you don't have time to enjoy it with your Emily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Karacho1647545492 Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 "Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling some five balls in the air. You name them - work, family, health, friends and spirit and you're keeping all of these in the air. You will soon or one day understand that Work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. But the other four balls - Family, Health, Friends and Spirit - are made of glass. If you drop one of these; they will be irrevocably scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged or even shattered. They will never be the same. You must understand that and strive for balance in your life." -Brian Dyson, CEO of Coca-Cola Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
