18 glaring signs you are ready to quit your job
“I think I want to quit my job”, you say. “No sh*t, Sherlock!” says your friend. “You’ve been saying that for days/months/years (insert timeframe here). Just put us all out of our misery and get on with it, for the love of God!”
You swing back and forth like an indecisive pendulum. Should I really leave? Maybe it’s not that bad. Perhaps if I just stick it out for a bit longer, it will get better.
Or will it?
I was the same as you up until last year. The signs were literally everywhere, slapping me in the face daily like a wet fish.
But still, I stayed on. I become more and more miserable until I felt like I had no choice but to leave.
I wish I had done it earlier, I would have saved myself a lot of stress and anxiety.
We all love a bit of hindsight though, so here are the 18 glaring signs that tell you if you are ready to quit your job.
On a serious note, most of the below points are quite lighthearted but, if you are at risk in any way, please tell someone and look to leave. Bullying, sexual harassment or illegal behaviour are never okay.
