Jobs People Wouldn't Do Even If They Paid $150k

Reddit user syjfwbaobfwl asked: 'What is a job you would not do even if you were paid 150k a month?'

Finding the perfect job is a difficult, some might even say impossible task.

So, when people can't find a job that necessarily fills them with joy, they might find one that at least fills their bank account.

Making the fact that they aren't doing the work they dreamed they'd be doing their whole lives forgivable, as they can afford nice clothes and fancy vacations.

However, there are some jobs that some people will simply never do, no matter how much money they are offered.


Redditor syjfwbaobfwl was curious to hear which jobs people would never accept, no matter how high the salary offered was, leading them to ask:
"What is a job you would not do even if you were paid 150k a month?"

Ethics First

"The kind of job that would make you knowingly screw or scam other people."

"I would never do that for any amount of money."

"I did have the opportunity once to benefit from something like that.'

"It was just an awful feeling, and my base instinct told me to GTFO out of there immediately haha."- Turbulent_Ad_4313

Everyone deserves to be paid a living wage.

At the same time, no one deserves to work a job that slowly sucks out their souls and makes them feel bad about themselves and the work they do.

If making over $1 million a year doesn't make you forget how unhappy you are at your place of work, it might be time to check the classifieds, or go back to grad school.
