Ep. 036: Why You Should Quit Your Job Now, with Tess Vigeland
Ever think about quitting your job? A vast majority of people do. One survey cited by CBS News found that 84% of Americans want to switch employers. Yet most of us show up for work every Monday even when we want to be somewhere else.
There are many reasons we don’t quit our job--even jobs that make us unhappy. Top concerns people cite include: family, money and opportunity. But what if you walked out of your office today without lining up your next job? Does that sound crazy?
This week on Find Your Dream Job, we speak to author Tess Vigeland, who makes a case for why you should quit your job now - even if you don’t have a “Plan B.”
In this 34-minute episode you will learn:
