Relatives close to the one who doesn't like his or her job or worse doesn't want to work five or six days a week, tend to be mistreated and disrespected. These difficult men and women rarely smile, prefer to spend much time alone, easily irritated, most often miserable, and don't want to talk much or not at all on most days. Children are encouraged to go to their rooms. Wives are quickly shut down when they want to communicate. Husbands are ignored.
No matter what you might ask the unhappy one, "I'm fine, everything is okay. Why are you asking me that? Nothing is wrong with me..." Sure. We must remember that many workers, who were once lazy children, didn't necessarily let go of their rebellion toward work especially if they grew up around strict parents. As children, when they didn't step it up at home, they were called, "Lazy! Good for nothing! You better help or else!" So it isn't any wonder why these workers have a negative attitude toward employment.
People who don't like their jobs or don't want to work at all can't stay in hiding for long! Potential candidates will initially respond positively to being up for a "challenge" during an interview. However, the truth comes out once they are hired. We notice the following: they are frequently late for work, delegate most or even all responsibilities to others, often request time off, avoid any customer service confrontations, and the list goes on!
Relatives catch hell when these poor performers are held accountable by their managers for their sub-par work ethic, lack of enthusiasm, and downright laziness. On the way home, the tension of the day is building. They will never tell the full story about what really happened at work. Rather than be honest with themselves and others, they prefer to lash out on anyone who asks, "How was your day?"
Children are not parented effectively and nor are marriages nurtured by selfish, lazy people who not only don't like to work a job, but don't like to help build their households either. Their lack of performance is not restricted to just a job. They choose roles out of necessity. They simply need money while they don't put too much thought in how their negative attitude about working might affect their loved ones, friends, coworkers, managers, and others in the short or long term.
Anyone who notices a relative or friend often acting mean-spirited without any explanation, but it seems that the mood is connected to work, you can attempt to get the individual to talk. However, if they refuse to be open and rather ignore you, well then you have a right to distance yourself from the negative worker!
Don't be surprised if one day they lose their job or quit. Save your money and pay off debt if you rely on this person, it's only a matter of time.

Quitting the Job When You're Really Supposed to End a Relationship
Why would any woman or man in a relationship riddled with
lies, emotional abuse, and other ugly things want to quit a job? Wouldn’t he or she need money especially if
the relationship is coming to a slow end?
For some heartbroken couples, it is easier for them to cope by creating distractions
rather than addressing issues. Blaming
the job causes them to focus on something other than the spouse or partner who
really needs to go!
Being in an unsatisfying relationship will make you think that issues you are faced with are really not at home especially when a partner is repeatedly suggesting it is your job that is keeping you stressed.
Maybe it is the partner’s spending habits, the extracurricular activities he/she or children are involved in that they desire your participation, or the fact a partner simply doesn’t like you working around women and/or men. Quit enough jobs in a short period of time and you will soon discover that your workplace isn't the problem, but the issues a possibly jealous, argumentative or controlling partner has placed upon you.
Here's why some people do the unthinkable, like suddenly quit a job, while maintaining a miserable relationship:
1. They have convinced themselves that things will get better in the relationship if they didn’t have to deal with difficult people at work. Although this might be true in some cases, this may not be an accurate perspective when the partner is the one who is blaming the job and putting you up to quitting it for selfish reasons.
2. Moving on to a better opportunity while promising a troubled mate how much better life will be is a good excuse not to deal with chronic relationship problems. You are buying time, because you aren’t ready to call it quits. If a partner is thinking about leaving, he or she might change his or her mind in order to reap some benefits such as: a new house, monetary gifts, relocation to a desired state, family planning, getting out of debt, etc.—all the things that an increase in income might bring.
3. A spouse, family member or friend may have advised that it might be in your best interest emotionally and/or legally to take on a job that pays less money and requires less responsibilities. However, once again, consider how involved others are in choosing your new career path? Once again, are you avoiding relationship difficulties by distracting yourself with a new job search?
4. The person assumes that is what a partner might want is to quit the job, because he or she often complained about it. When in all actuality, he or she just can’t manage anymore both job and relationship challenges.
5. The controlling partner redirects the blame on his or herself for causing certain relationship problems on to your job. He or she is never at fault. “Why don’t you look for another job, Honey. You know how you can be when you come home from work.” Maybe the one, who will soon be unemployed, simply wants to come home to no one.
Consider all factors before ending a job especially if it is one that you personally like. Sure, it has its share of challenges, what job doesn’t? Your personal life may be hindering you from being a success—don’t let it!
