What reason have you quit a job?

[manas41]

I'm about to quit my job and second guessing whether my reason is "good enough" to leave this job which is good in some ways, not so good in other ways. What reason have you had to quit a job? Curious to hear from others.

Good reasons to quit:

- you're not happy
- you've got an offer at another place
- you want to move
- you want to

A job won't give you a two week notice if they're letting you go, you don't have to feel bad about leaving them.

(Sorry, I wanted to reply to Larz60+... )

Nothing :P, but isn't that the idea of the "Forum and Of Topic" section?

Btw, to answer the question, my reasons always had something to do with the supervisor...

i quit my paying job as a cameraman at the local cable TV production studio so i could be the video recording volunteer supervisor for my high school football team. the latter job could be considered "better" since it was more fun (and i got to travel). this was back in the early 1970s when everything was in black and white.

I have left my previous job because I don't see any opportunity
that can motivate me the most with work. I like to see growth,
improvement, while I am on a certain job. Without any growth
opportunity, I cannot stay at a particular job.

If I didn't detest job seeking and had another lined up I'd have left already

why do you detest job seeking? is it because you are acting like a sales person when doing it?

I didn't quit my last (low-tech) job, I was fired, and this was a lucky chance.
In my new (high-tech) job, I learned myself to program industrial robots and I visited many countries for commissioning.
My job before was boring, we did every day the same, no variation.
Actually, I am not traveling, but working on a research project with VR + Gloves.


Sometimes a job change is required. Otherwise, you risk burning out yourself.
Changing jobs can open up new opportunities.

I've quit before because a game was released and I don't have PTO and want play it for a week straight. I've quit my one job because I wanted to play Zelda breath of the wild. I quit another because of battlefield 3 released.

Most of the time is because I'm burnt out and their vacation or PTO is not enough to recover. I would rather take a year unpaid vacation by quitting and find another job qhen I'm refreshed.

My current job I was just going to let myself get fired by insubordination. Somehow that back fired and I got a raise by my supervisors boss. Reminded me of the movie Office Space. I was trying to get fired at one point but I ended up getting 5 raises throughout the pandemic so I am still here.
