If You Are Sick-To-Death Of Being Lied To And Having You Hard Earned Money Taken By Scammers...Crush Your Job
Quit your job, and you face pressures on monetary, emotional, and family levels. You are threatening the wellbeing and stability of other people. Do not quit your job, and you die a little inside every single minute of the day.
The Challenge - 51 Reasons to Quit Your Job
1. The Pay Sucks
In a weak economy, corporations are hiring - at wages less than before 9/11. Unions are being busted and desperate people will do what they have to do to feed their families.
2. Evil Boss
No boss is perfect. If your boss is abusive or unethical, it is likely time to start looking for a new job.
3. Evil Corporation
Not all companies are leaders in their industry. Not all companies are green or community conscious. Some are just evil cogs in a dying industrial age.
4. Your Co-Workers Suck
Every so often, through no defect of your own, you just bring out Biblical evil in certain individuals. Don't give in to it.
5. Idiot Coworkers
I would take evil coworkers over idiots. Let's be candid. If your fellow employees should be riding the short yellow bus to go to work, perhaps it's time to shatter the association. Quit your job now.
6. Unfriendly Environment
Some companies like Google and Amazon.com have long recognized that providing soft benefits and perks can make a work environment more enjoyable than going home. Other major corporations are so focused on profits they forget who makes the money.
7. Inadequate Resources to Do the Job
Few companies actually give you the tools you need and want to do the job well. Find another.
8. Unchallenging Work
A fine line exists between mastering your job and becoming too "comfortable" or complacent. In any job, there should be a certain amount of work that pushes you to new levels. So if you're bored to tears, quit your job, and move on, instead of sulking or becoming bitter.
9. Micromanaging
Companies compete for talent then micromanage the innovation out of them. Look elsewhere.
10. No Room for Advancement
If you are stuck and can’t move up - move out.
11. Major Change in Your Life
Changes at home often require changes in job scenery.
12. Company Looks Financially Vulnerable
If you're hearing reports of bankruptcy or impending layoffs, it may be time to check out what other options are available.
13. Better Opportunity Elsewhere
When corporations will ship your job to Ireland, India, or the Philippines in a heartbeat, loyalty is dead on both sides. Act in your own best interest.
14. Bad Workplace Romance
If you find yourself in a big, workplace-relationship fiasco. it may be time to start looking for a new workplace where you'll have a clean slate. Just resolve not to repeat the same mistake.
15. Hate Going to Work
When every minute of your commute brings out anxiety, quit your job.
16. High When You Exit Work
I hate how fast the time goes before it's time to leave for work. On the other hand, when I clock out in the evening, it's like being released from jail on a 16 hour furlough.
17. Don't Need the Money That Badly
If you are one of those rare Suze Orman believers who has an 8 month supply of cash on hand, quit your job now.
18. Depression
If you're experiencing sadness to the point where you dread getting out of bed in the morning, it may be hard to place all of the blame on a stressful job. But it could be a big part of it.
19. Dream About Work Problems
If work problems seem into your dream time, sever the cord. Your dreams are trying to tell you something.
20. Relationship With Immediate Manager Damaged Beyond Repair (PONR)
Your relationship with your manager is damaged beyond repair. Perhaps you were untrustworthy or missed work on too many days. Whatever the reason, the position in the company is irrecoverably damaged.
21. Dislike Your Corporate Culture
The culture must match your needs, whether for money or recognition or free vacations.
22. Just Don't Enjoy Your Work
Chances are you hate your job. Only you can do something about it.
23. Company Not Totally Evil, But Ethically Challenged
Some companies like McDonalds always seem to do things according to the straight and narrow. Others like Burger King or Hardees seem to look for shortcuts (not as clean, not as nice). In bad times, ethically challenged can turn to evil.
24. Your Own Bad Behavior at Work
Maybe you could not help it. Maybe they are too slow for your sense of humor. Get out before you turn into one of them.
25. Cost of Starting Your Own Business Near Zero
Technically, you could begin at the public library without a computer, phone, or website. At the very least, you should have an affiliate marketing business as backup income and to start replacing your job.
26. Burned Bridges
After you've burned your bridges with your co-workers, the reasons don't matter much. Start fresh in a new job and don’t let this situation happen again.
27. Stress Levels Are Off the Charts
Stress kills. The money cannot be worth it. Quit your job before you die.
28. Want More Responsibility
You are unchallenged, need more responsibility, and seek opportunities that just don't exist for you in your current organization.
29. You Absolutely Hate Your Job
For whatever reason, do you need more? Quit.
30. Stop Trading Time for Money
When you realize that trading time for money is stupid, you will never look at a job the same again.
31. Inconvenient Schedule
Companies use employees as pawns. They may change your schedule frequently to satisfy “the needs of the business” or send you to a remote location for weeks on end.
32. Relocation
Obviously, if you need to move, your company may not be in the new location. Even if it is, you may choose to sever your relationship anyway.
33. Change Career
If the job does not match your career plans, find one that does.
34. Gnawing Gut Feeling
Sometimes you know in your gut something is wrong. It might be the job, the boss, or just your place in the company. Listen to your gut.
35. Not Doing What You Love
While I don’t necessarily believe you have to love your job, as I get older I can see the wisdom into making your work your passion, or vice versa.
36. Physically Dangerous Job
Let someone else take the physical risks. Use your brain and computer to make a living.
37. Health Issues
It may not be your company’s fault, but if your health is being negatively impacted by your job, quit your job and save your health.
38. Hostile Workplace
No man or woman should tolerate an openly hostile work environment. Not even for a day.
39. Promises When Hired Not Fulfilled
When the job you fill is significantly different from the one promised, you should look to leave immediately.
40. No Recognition
Some crave recognition. If you are one of these employees and you are not getting what you need, it's time to change jobs.
41. Authority v. Blame
It's amazing how managers seize authority and credit, until things go wrong. Blame flows downhill. Don't accept it.
42. Long Commutes
Long commutes add to your stress levels and effectively eliminate free time from Monday to Friday.
43. No Compensation for Ideas That Help the Company
If you have great ideas for your business niche, quit your job and put them in place to crush your former employer (always follow any non-compete agreements).
44. Corporate Politics
I don't mind office politics so much. I have played the game to gain promotions over better qualified and longer tenured coworkers. If you lost out at your company, move on.
45. No Flexibility
Many jobs - security, call centers, factories - are time driven. Human thought and ingenuinity not needed.
46. No Love
People are being asked to do more and more for crappy pay. If not, ten unemployed men and women are lining up to replace you.
47. No Safety
No job is safe or secure. Don't go looking for love in all the wrong corporate places.
48. No Regrets
If you were to quit your job today, would you have any regrets about tasks undone or promises unmet? If not, move on.
49. Eliminate Stuff
Most of what you own are liabilities, not assets. Liabilities equal expenses. Assets put money in your pocket.
50. You, Inc. - Do It Better
You, Inc. was a famous book from years past. Never has it been more necessary.
51. Sovereign Individual
Only since the industrial revolution has the notion of a job taken hold. Systems break work down into smaller and smaller mind-numbing units.
To crush your job, you need to begin with the right attitude and finish with a simple system to get you started on the path to an online income that will set you free.
