A really well paid job.

If you recieved a high rate of pay..from let's say a celebrity .

Working for them...they treated you like crap.


Would you endure it and stay or would you leave?


I must be honest and say I would endure it and stay!..

The power of money!..

Re: A really well paid job.

I’d stay long enough until I judged when I had sufficient funds to stick one on the pompous tw#t and leave....

No, the principle of being happy in the work place is very important to me.

Look at the majority of lottery winners, they are sad individuals who now hate their lives due to what money has done to them. I understand that money is everything to a lot of people but to me it is not.

Re: A really well paid job.

You can get used to anything. Most of us get treated like crap for a lot less and still put up with it.

Re: A really well paid job.

I've known a few people (young at the time) who were the assistants of a few celebs, including Madonna. Most of them describe their positions as love/hate relationships. The money and perks were great, but they were 24/7 jobs. Each left their work from burnout, but their experience led them to better positions with better working conditions.

I feel ashamed now...to think that I would put up with crap for money.


It's not a laughing matter really...yes I agree some people do get treated like crap for a lot less....but that is their choice to put up with it,LD..don't you think?

That's interesting...what did the money do to the lottery winners?
