out of work = into life

saw this nick from one of my seniors...

I think this is really true for auditors, is it?

or is it most of the jobs, this sentence will stand?

I think actually it is a choice ultimately.

Work = money = better standard of living

so you need to make a choice.

If you want a better standard of living, you work like hell.

If you think spending quality time with your family members, you work less and maybe a more normal standard of living.

I think my parents chose the former.

They slogged so as to provide a better living for their children. They only have two days of rest per year. Well... Because of that, they didnt get to spend time with their children. They always missed my Meet the parents session. It was always subsituted by my aunt.

I used to think that it is important to spend time with your children. I even had a dream to become housewife. To look after my children and spend time with them.

Now, I have started working. I think I am working like my parents. I seldom see them and seldom talk to them. Most of my time was spent working. Sometimes it was spent with him.

Sometimes I felt like changing jobs. But I wanted to provide more for my parents. So that they can lead a better life in future.

So am I stepping in their footsteps?

I think I can't reach a conclusion yet.

P.S. But I think auditors work doubly as hard as those of the same pay. mmm....Think the only good side is the pay rise is very fast...
