28 Random Signs You Should Probably Quit Your Job…Like Now
I talk to people almost everyday about how they feel about their jobs or careers.
After a few interesting conversations this past week I thought I would just list some random thoughts about the most common signs I see and hear from people that need to quit their job sooner than later.
So here is my list in no particular order…
- You are bored and watch the clock move ever so sloooooowly
- You have lost (or never had) passion for the work you do AND don’t see that happening anytime soon
- The money sucks
- You have no desire to learn more about your job or industry
- The hours suck
- You couldn’t care less about having new ideas that would help or benefit the company
- The commute sucks
- You feel like no one gives a shit
- You don’t give a shit
- You don’t participate or volunteer for anything outside of your regular working hours
- The company culture sucks
- You feel like the leaders or managers don’t give a shit about you and your goals
- You feel like a no one
- You feel dispensable
- You feel like no one values your input
- You aren’t recognized or appreciated for your work
- No one ever says “Thank you” or “Good job”
- You dread waking up and getting ready to go to work almost everyday…not just Mondays
- You live for the weekends
- You don’t see any gold at the end of the rainbow
- You feel like what you do doesn’t have meaning or purpose
- You feel like what you do isn’t important and/or doesn’t really matter to anyone else
- You feel like your job isn’t making IMPACT or the difference in the world that you want to make
- You don’t really care about the people you or your company serves
- You aren’t using your unique strengths or “genius”
- You simply aren’t happy
- You feel trapped
- You have a nagging feeling down deep inside that you are made to do something different…something better with your life!
How many of these signs are TRUE for you? How many can you really relate to?
Obviously the more responses that are TRUE for you or that you can strongly relate to the more convinced I am that you need to quit your job and design the work that makes you truly happy.
Life is way too short to not do the things that FIRE YOU UP the most!
Wouldn’t you agree?
