Yes or when you're so bored you actually nod off at your desk.

If you get up for work and dont have the passion to do the job then change.

No one likes being in a job they dislike.

If your job is dragging you down, it's time to move on.

I have a few mantras for work:

A job should pay you twice - one in monetary terms and the other in preparing you to move on to another job (e.g.: experience). Once your job only pays you once its time to move on.

When you find your work ethic being affected by your current role then it is time to move on. Otherwise you risk that becoming your normal work ethic.

When you wake up every work day with a sense of dread or anxiety it’s time to move on.

I was in this situation, quit and retrained (lucky I was in a position to do so) but I had already formulated a plan to retrain.

Just got a new job in my new field and feeling really excited!

Good luck with whatever you decide.

When the demand becomes too great and it stops being fun... so happy in retirement, something I never thought I would do!

I work full time nights. My job is very demanding and very physical. I will need to work until i am 67 but really do not think i will be fit enough to do my job in my 60's. Going part time would be good but sadly not an option as i can not afford to drop the hours.

Despite needing it financially, I had to quit one because it literally made me want to kill myself.

Waking up knowing I had to go in made me miserable and I realised this wasn't one where I could just suck it up.

Luckily I only had myself to take care of at the time.

On a mooch

When you wake up dreading going to work, what cr*p do I have to deal with today; when you stand outside the door urging yourself to cross the road to enter the building; when every little thing is stressful and it never used to be even to the point just someone opening their mouth; where all you look forward to is escaping and having a drink in your lunch hour as that’s the only way you’ll get through the afternoon; when you say f*ck it and don’t return after lunch; walking out the door at the end of the day is the best feeling you have that day; when you struggle to sleep as can’t switch off knowing you’ve got to do it all again tomorrow.

No matter the financial reward, no job is worth your sanity or health. You spend most your adult life in your workplace, it affects your daily mood and interaction with others. So if it’s not right, change it no matter how scary it seems.

I had a soul crushing job where I felt exactly like this.

No amount of money is worth it.

When you have a better one lined up.

Jumping when you don't have anywhere to land is a risky move.

I left my job in December 2019 after 19 years, this was my life for the last 3 years of it.

It is soul crushing and it’s a huge scary step but damn it felt good.

Hope you are in a better place now x
