Earning $60,000 a Month Labeled a 'Sweet Deal,' Woman Cries 'Internal Friction,' Netizens Flood Comments: 'I'll Take It If You Resign'

A Taiwanese woman earning more than NT$60,000 a month and able to leave work on time feels her job is anything but a "sweet deal." She shared her struggles on the Dcard forum, describing how her role has expanded beyond its original scope to include administrative duties and tasks like booking hotels, which were not initially part of her job description.

“

I can never find a job like this, I'm so envious.

The netizen, who has about 4-5 years of experience, acknowledged that her salary is at a managerial level for her field. However, the constant addition of new responsibilities and frequent, unexpected tasks from her boss have left her feeling overwhelmed and stressed. She worries about not meeting her employer's expectations, leading to significant mental strain.

“

Suggest you resign, I'll take it.

Online discussions revealed a mix of envy and advice. Many commenters expressed their desire for such a job, with some jokingly offering to take her place. Others pointed out that poor communication with a boss can be incredibly draining and suggested clarifying expectations. One commenter noted a similar situation with a friend who complained daily but refused to leave, knowing that other available jobs might be equally or more demanding with lower pay.

“

It looks like you're becoming the boss's secretary in the end.

The original poster's situation highlights a common workplace issue where job descriptions evolve, and employees struggle to balance new demands with their existing workload, especially when communication channels are unclear.

Poor communication can really be draining, this is not your problem. You can first confirm if what you understand is the same as what he said. I believe he is keeping you because most of what you understand is correct.
