I hung in there due to the quality benefits I have, but I was close to the end of my rope with that.

Are there other people here who stay/have stayed at their jobs because they have good benefits (insurance, retirement, etc)?

My stepson’s wife stayed at a very low paying job for years just for the benefits while she went to school and her kids were young.
