I need an honest opinion.

Hi, love.

I've been thinking about this for months.

I have my current job now. I've been here for almost two years.

There are happy times, yes. But mostly im just given stress. My work is completely underappreciated.

They have this mentality where they wouldnt give a if you've done right but would give you hell for a single petty thing you've done wrong.

I barely got late. My absences could be counted by my own fingers. I have a clean track record. I never disobeyed anything they wanted me to do even though mostly it's out of my job description.

I act like a complete servant. And based on my observation, majority of the things my superior pointed out to me which she said were the reasons im having low evaluations werent even part of my job.

I've been doing things way beyond my JD and they've been pushing me to do more and give more effort whilst the fact that my salary isn't even big enough for me to actually save up for myself. But they've been trying to give me this idea that i kinda owe them for smallest of things that actually benefited me and that i still owe the company for things that 'i've learned' and that it's not always about the money.

Also, for months i've wanted to submit that piece of paper that would end all of my problems that affect my mental and emotional health. (They usually gave out words that not everyone could handle. Most of it really hurts). But i do also think about my bills, other possibilities, and especially my responsibilities in the company. Who'd fill them out if ever i leave?

But mostly because they seem to know how to make the person feel bad about their own actions because they make us think we owe everything to them and things are quite different there.

I know the things i've actually listed down are mostly, if not all negative. But i did build relationships there. I'm friends with some of the managers, supervisors and am quite friendly with everyone.

So i dont know if i'd just choose to set myself and my emotional health free or just stay here and be able to support myself. Because even though there are -tons of companies out there, we all know how difficult it os to actually get a job.

 

But i dont really know what's stopping me. I'm just physically and emotionally drained i want to end it. 😑

Honestly speaking, it wouldn’t be a great idea to give up a job if you don’t have enough savings to get you through the months that it may take you to find a job again.
I know it’s stressful, but you gotta look at a few things before handing in that resignation letter.
1. Do you have enough savings? It might take quite a few months to find another job. Can you support yourself till then?
2. If you don’t have enough savings, is there someone who will support you till you get a new job? If yes, then the decision might get easier.
3. How easy/ difficult is it to get a job in your field/in your line of work? If it is hard to come by, you should maybe think twice.
4. Is there possibility of a pay rise or a promotion in the near future? If there is, then you might be throwing away a good opportunity to get ahead.
5. If you do decide to hang onto your job, Can you fix your problems by talking to your coworkers/HR? Sometimes issues like this can be fixed through discussion. But are you willing to try it?

But the most important question is this one:
DO YOU LIKE YOUR JOB? By this I mean to say, do you like what you do? You might be stressed out in your current workplace, but if you get the same job elsewhere, will you like doing what you do?

If the answer is no.... then you’ll have to reconsider everything.

I don’t know if this will help, but I hope it will make it easier to think things through. =)
