Not the same situation at all.

I encountered a closer situation to this in my personal career, admittedly the money differs by a few factors of 10...

I started with a company in a position that had me at home almost every night. My contract ran through 2020. It was good work and I enjoyed it. The work location changed suddenly and I was then based out of a small town working a 5 days on 2 days off schedule living out of a hotel.

I still really enjoyed the work but in time the travel became something I could not manage, even though I was being more than fairly compensated for the work I was doing and wasn't going out of pocket to travel to and from work.

I found another job that had me home every night and terminated my contract. Should I have stuck it out until the contract ran out or was I fair in moving to a different company in the same industry that had a preferable living arrangement for me?
