Then again they seem to have plenty of takers for the jobs at that rate of pay and conditions.
just couldn't do it myself.

I think I have reached that conclusion. Some people can seperate work - the culture, politics, run ins with the boss - from the rest of their life. As soon as they leave work, the day is forgotten. I'm just not like that. A guy I used to work with said that it's important that you have something more than work otherwise your life becomes your work and everything that happens at work suddenly has more significance and meaning. Tis true. Stress creeps up on you - you don't realise how unhappy you are until you can't get in your jeans because you've been comfort eating like Annie Wilkes, or you pause one day and realise that that feeling of nausea every morning for the past month just isn't normal. The trouble is, and it's true in my case, some people develop an internia where, yeah they're unhappy and stressed, but they just can't take the leap of leaving. And just because you hate the job and/or the boss, doesn't mean you hate the people you work with, which just adds to the inertia.
Leave!
