Agree with TLDNMCL. I’ve never vomited but there are some jobs in some organisations that are literally toxic. If you are stuck as the sole breadwinner with a wife, young kids and a mortgage, these jobs will try to kill you. The best advice I can give is not to put yourself in that situation where you are “locked in” and can’t escape.
...Hence my advice to stick to trades and/or operating your own unique business, invest in your self. Do something that others can’t or won’t do and don’t overthink things. ‘high wire acts” CEO, airline pilot in Australia dependent on seniority, specialised middle management skills in tiny industries, etc. should be avoided.
I know two guys who have just sold their businesses pre covid and who have started new ones as hobbies - that are growing as we speak! So don’t despair. Then there is an acquaintance “J” who works in construction as a sub contractor, he is in his early 30’s, he flies his own jetranger wearing steel capped boots, flouro vest and tradie shorts! There is life out there but you won’t find it working for a boss in some big company!
I recommend watching the movie ‘Kenny” It portrays a better life than trying to be an airline pilot.
