myotherself -> RE: Would you take a job that put you in a lot of morally grey situations? (9/30/2012 4:40:59 AM)

In my earlier working life I was a journalist, worked in media relations and worked for a City financial company. The money was great, but I spent too much time worrying about the decisions I had had to make, and the morality of my decisions.
There came a point when I lost my job through redundancy. I was offered an almost identical role at a rival finance company, but at a significantly higher (six figure, plus lots of perks) salary. I turned it down to train as a teacher.
Six years in, and I sleep well at night. I do my best for my students and I have yet to make any decisions that have made me lose sleep.
Could I go back to a job that bruised my conscience? No way in hell!
