Do we really know what we're doing?
I recently left a job that was weighing on me, to where my mental health was tested in so many ways. I felt stuck, unhappy, cried almost weekly, if not daily. I wasn't okay. I was fed up with the position, it was horrible and made me feel less than who I was. When I made a decision to leave it was easy and tough at the same time. I had to have a conversation with myself to weigh the pros and cons. Pros: -I wouldn't have to come in every day, upset and angry at myself and mentally/emotionally checked out. -It would be something for myself; something that would make me happy and free (even for the time being). -Maybe my resignation would help the higher ups know (if they cared...which I doubt), that they had a great worker leave because the resources they claimed were available, weren't...and the request from those who wanted to stay with the company and "grow" were being ignored. Cons: -WHERE THE MONIES GON' COME FROM?! -BENEFITS? POOF! POW! BE GONE!...
