When Is a Paycheck Just Not Worth It Anymore?

I used to think a bigger paycheck would solve all my problems, but here I am, a project manager at a tech firm, dreading every Monday. The salary is decent, but the constant emails at midnight, the endless meetings that go nowhere, and the pressure to always be 'on'—it's exhausting. My weekends have become just recovery time, not real rest. Sometimes I wonder, is it normal to feel this drained for a job that pays well? Or am I just not cut out for this grind? I keep asking myself: At what point does the money stop making up for the stress? Have any of you been in this spot? How did you know it was time to walk away? I’d really appreciate your advice because I’m honestly at a loss. 😩 #CareerBurnout #WorkLifeBalance #JobStress #JobCareer
