Question:
I mean SERIOUSLY considering it, not just having a daydream that will never be acted upon. I mean with a timetable, gameplan
for transition to new job, or new job already a sure thing, and all that.
Personally, I'm quitting in 2 months, and not a soul has a clue here.
It's getting old for me, and the 60-hour-weeks are crazy. I'm
using it as an opportunity to move to a much more dynamic city in the sunbelt, and as far away from the midwest as I can get.
So, how about you folks? Finally had enough with your boss, feel
underappreciated and/or underpaid, had enough of people dumping on you, or poor pay?
I'm giving up a fairly decent paycheck, and don't care.
Enough is enough. SOmetimes its best to just quit, and have enough faith in yourself to succeed and thrive somewhere else.
Change is usually good, but we have to have the guts to leave.
Most people don't, and stay in dumped-on type jobs for years.
I hope you are not one of those people!

Answer:
I have been fed up for the last 8 months, not just with my job but the whole industry (I have been a teacher for the last 12 years).

Yesterday I finally handed in my resignation, and in 2 weeks I embark on a new career in Sales and Marketing. I am going from a job with a secure pay check (albeit very crappy money) to a job which I have no experience in and which is paid on a commission only basis…. am I petrified? YES …. Am I excited? YES….. However, I am putting my whole faith in myself and my ability to succeed taking on this new career…. but I know it is a stepping stone, as I can work my way through the company into management, with the opportunity to earn $150 000 per year… it is only myself who can limit my potential to get to this stage!

So I think it is safe to say, in answer to your question, that I am not one of those people!!
