I turned down a huge promotion at work back in December that would have put my salary range in the six figures, for this very reason. I hated to say No because I really would've enjoyed the extra money and the prestige of the job, but I had a horrible feeling that I would have grown very quickly to hate all the travel and the constant change. I was dx'd with BP only a few months later.
