Great Education + Terrible Job = Mad Wife? |
My wife is a little upset about me taking a job in customer service. I have a bachelors degree in management and like 5 years experience in the military. Recently I got out of the military and I honestly thought I would find a job that paid more, but I haven't. Instead I took a job as a customer service rep, with a fast track program to management. In theory I dont plan to work at this place for more then 1 month. After that time I am going to move south. So how do I talk to my wife about this? She thinks I should not work unless I am paid well. I think that too, but in order to leave I have to bite the bullet and take a job I dont really want for the fast cash. What would you tell your significant other in a situation like this? Keep in mind in the past I used to be really rude and say i would never take a job like that. I guess I was ignorant because times are looking like that for me. Take hold of this situation. Who is responsible for this marriage in the eyes of the Lord? You are Mr.Man. Remind your wife of her wedding vow...."for richer or poorer" And be silent. If she insists on demeaning you, remind her that you came home for peace and solace, and if you wanted more complaining, you'd have stayed at work. Seriously, if you keep letting her treat you like this, she will continue to worsen. Source(s): married for a lot longer time. A bachelor's in management would qualify you for a management job in customer service. I assume you've had trouble finding a job because of the area you're in, since you're going to move. Have you told her that? Also, might I recommend a civil service job? It's great pay, and you'd just have to take a test. http://askauntamy.blogspot.com I don't understand what she wants you to do. Just stay at home and mail resumes? I think you should work at any job available and mail resumes until something comes up. I read somewhere that companies are more likely to hire someone who is employed. First of all the south does not generally pay as well as the northern states. See a professional resume maker i think your military may be a plus and just stay positive if your wife keeps complaining, maybe she can do better good luck! Tell her that any money is better than no money at all. Re-assure her that you are not planning on staying there forever, just long enough to get the job you really want. She should understand it if you lay your plan out for her, tell her what you want for your future and how she is included in it. |
