5 important things apart from salary in a job

You think salary is the most important thing in a job? Absolutely no! Just think of a well-payed …minesweeper!! There are a lot other things that make a job attractive. Five of those are listed below but these are not the only ones, just think about it and you will agree at least to two or three of them.

1.            Safety Conditions

Be aware if the job is peculiarly highly remunerated. Safety is above money. Think twice (or more) before you accept a job of high risk. It doesn’t worth it! Electrician on live high voltage? A military minesweeper? Deep water diving? No way, I have a life to live, even with less money!!

2.            Flexibility in working hours.

Life is not a clock and not all people have the same clock. Having flexibility in working hours is as important as salary. A million to-do-things can be ‘done’ with flexibility in working hours. For sure it saves at least 5-7 days of annual leave and removes stress during those ugly days you hate getting up early. 

3.            Location

The perfect job but traveling 2 hours for reaching your office is a nightmare. That totals 4 hours traveling of your life in a day! You might prefer a job with half the money… working from home? You would discuss it ha? Wouldn’t you?

4.            Vacation Time and Time Off

Vacations is lifesaving. Plan long before or not at all, vacations is a blessing especially that magic first day early in the morning!! You find yourself up at the same time and oh my Gosh… is so much different! Like Sunday but not exactly, its better cause everybody else is working!!!

5.            What it takes for a promotion

Oh I need to know that. I am not willing to stay here forever, I need to know what it takes for a promotion, how long it takes to achieve and need to know what my chances are to be the one… one day, at top of that damn chart where now I cannot find my name, not even under a microscope.
