I learned this lesson 9 years ago, then implemented it last year. Steady paychecks are nice, but plan so you don't need them to live month to month if you can swing it. Once the company turns sour and you're always angry, it's past time to move on to something fresher. I took a nice 3 month sabbatical and it was the best summer since college. Life is too short.
- newfoundglory 8y agoI definitely could have afforded to quit, but I kept on believing that I could fix it and I just had to explain things to the right people...eventually my manager delivered me a glowing written performance review while telling me in person that he wanted to put me on a PIP, and asked if I wanted to transfer to another team. Total mindfuck. If I hadn't had a solid reputation through the company and with her management chain already I'm sure he would have tried to fire me.
