How to quit my job by thiagoricieri

"I was very boried with what I was doing. Since I have another source of income, I made up my mind, made some calculations and quit the job! Now I feel free to try another experience, in another area :)"

How I did it: First I have to decide I wanna quit. I was unhappy with the job, that was a fact. But I couldn't just let go from one day to another. I have my bills to pay (a lot of them), but since I have another source of income, I figured out I could spent some days living of that, so the money part was solved.

The next part was create courage to quit the job. My boss was (and still is) a great friend and never treat me mean. I was unhappy with the activity I was doing, not with the condictions of working there. So, I have chosen the right time, about three weeks later I decided to quit. We make a deal and then he left me go, with no distrust.

Lessons & tips:

  1. Think a lot before doing this, sometimes you could be just sad with another reason. Be sure to know that the reason you are doing it is because the problem is inside your job.
  2. Plan before doing this, because you still have to live.
  3. Don't leave distrusted with nobody. At some point you could need the people of your later job 

Resources: Courage, planning (a good Numbers spreadsheet) and a reliable source of income for the time I'll be unemployed
