 You've got to throw your shoulders back and go to work, even if it's not pleasant, to take care of the pregnant wife and to take care of the mortgage that you can't afford until you get the house sold. I don't care if it's pleasant. I don't care if it's toxic. I don't care if your boss is a jerk. I just don't care. You signed up for a crappy trip, and you get to ride the roller coaster of a crappy trip. It's not forever. It's for a few months so you don't bankrupt your family.
