I saw this question on a Reddit thread, and I couldn’t wait to dive into the answers. The original poster asked:

“What’s something you did that reduced your quality of life so much that you wish you had never done it?”

Here are 9 of the top answers from the thread. (The full thread is linked at the bottom of this article.)

1. Working a job they hate

One commenter said they worked 12-hour days for a job that wasn’t worth it. Another said they left a company they liked for a job with more pay and completely regretted it.

That’s something that happened to me, too.

I worked for a company called GSI Commerce (it was founded by Fanatics' owner, Michael Rubin), and I really enjoyed the work. I was in email marketing and worked with sports brands like Dick’s Sporting Goods and City Sports.

But…

Several people I knew from GSI moved to a banking company about 20 miles up the road, and I was also lured to the same company because the pay was much higher.

I regretted it so much.
