Alien777 Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 Ok so here is my situation. I have been at my current job for almost 2 years. Unfortunately I not been happy since the first day. IN April of this year I was diagnosed with a chronic hepatitis b disease. Throughout most of this year I have been on treatment with some very nasty side-effects. Now during the time when I was sick my work did not show me any remorse, I was just pushed to work harder and harder. So I made a decision that next year in March 2005 I am going overseas to do some travelling. But now I have got a really good job offer. But the thing is if I leave my current job, I will loose my medical aid and will have to pay for my medication myself. Also is it worth taking this new job for 3-4 months and then just quitting when I want to move overseas? The problem is also is that I might have to stay here a bit longer to recover from my illness because the doctors cannot tell me yet if the treatment has worked. The results are looking good at the moment but I have not been cured yet. Some advice on this matter will be greatly appreciated. 0X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnolWolf Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 If I were in your shoes, I would stick with my current job for the medical aid if I couldn't afford it on my own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daredevil Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 Furthermore it isn't worth risking having a new job for 3-4 four months, then the payment should really be good and also able to cover your med expenses... but I think you should stick to your current job, and perhaps wait traveling until you get the results confirmed...

lil_unique_me Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 i think as well that you should stick at your current job but ask them to go a bit easier on you because you are not well at the moment. but if the new job pays you enough money so you can afford the medical treatment then go for it. and as far as the travel is concerned dont even think about it until you get your results back.
