[desprateseagull]

should i quit my job?

fed up with a really srressfull job, people are leaving all over the place, but i wonder what/where I could go next..

i have already used up a lot of goodwill, with sick leave (genuine, but too often for my liking), and today i just could not facing getting out of bed.

turning 40 may have something to do with it, but have been feeling like i have 'missed out' even before then..

Yes

Get a job where you can sell dodgy goods on ebay.it's very rewarding.If you get caught very little companies take any action.Simply move onto better pickings

 

[Beach Hut]

If your job involves spelling you might not need to quit

What's the matter are you on the coaching staff or something?

You're not the only one, I desperately want to leave my job too.

Is your company big enough for an internal transfer. That solves many problems. It proves new challenges, without the hassle of pay-day changing, pensions being shuffled, etc...

 

[desprateseagull]

its a local job (accounts work). so no in house switching. it may be just the way the firm (doesn't) work..

I want out of my job but will not ( and do not recommend ) leave my job until I find something else. Just do the minimum you have to do and don't go the extra mile mate. That is my aim now as I have gone the extra mile for the past 5 years just to get told they do not think I am worthy of promotion. It is Dog eat Dog as far as I am concerned so if you are f***ed over then do the same to them by getting the job you deserve mate.

Do you have a rich wife (or a least one with a decent income) or another income source?

Have you enough in savings to cover outgoings for a year or so?

If you can answer yes to both, then what is stopping you? If only one then quite tricky. However, having a rapidly depleting income will motivate you to replace it and a period of lower income might persuade you that you don't need as much as you might think.

More importantly, is it your job situation and associated stress that is making you ill? If your work is affecting your health then its definately time to move on.

I would say don't leave a job unless you have another one lined up to go to.

 

[Woodchip]

You going to print this off as your resignation letter?

 

[NMH]

Quit. Life's too short to be doing a shit job.

 

[RM-Taylor]

If you feel like quitting, then quit.

Are you like, stuck in the toilet dude? *snigger*

 

[Springal]

tell me about it - im actively looking. i made 1 tiny mistake [though there should of been failsafes to stop ME making the mistake] and the shit is hitting the fan massively for some reason.

Totally fed up with the way it has been handled yadda yadda yadda, been there 18 months and just fed up of the job and all the politics / lack of man management skills the 'management' have

You're not the only one, I desperately want to leave my job too.

Don't blame you. Boundstone's a shit hole.
