Which is more important to you and why: Money, Job Satisfaction or Personal fulfillment.
Personal fulfillment because without it I can't have job satisfaction and no amount of money is going to make a difference.
I once accepted a job because it was at the time what I consider a high rate of pay. When I was in the interview I knew I would be bored with the job but decided to take it anyway because the money was good. I think I lasted maybe two months. Even with the money being good I wound up hating going to work and it was a horrible experience. That's the only job I have walked away from without proper notice. I basically worked the sick and vacation guidelines so that I could walk away without being fired. It was a great job for the right person, but horrible for me and I suspected that to be the case before I started. Within a week of starting I new it was true.
