At one time or another, most of us have or will work a job we absolutely hate. In an ideal world, that wouldn’t be the case. We could quit as soon as we realized it was sucking our soul and go on to find something better – but in reality, that takes financial security that many people just don’t have.
So, we toil away, waiting for the day when we can finally slap our resignation down on our boss’s desk.
For these 19 people walking right along the edge, that day just might come sooner rather than later.
