Career Tips: 13 Signs You Need To Quit Your Job Sooner Rather Than Later by latestjobsng(m): 7:25am On Sep 12, 2015
Everyone has a bad day at work now and then. You may furiously leave your office swearing you’ll put your two weeks notice in soon. But how do you know when you should give your job a second chance, or when it’s really time to quit?
For one, you should always follow your gut. If you deeply hate your job, then you should absolutely start looking for other opportunities. If you’re on the fence, then you should open your eyes to feelings, thoughts and happenings in your life that might point to the exit sign.

Here are 13 signs you need to quit your job sooner rather than later:

1. You dread going to work. Do you go to sleep every night dreading the next day of work? While it’s normal to have qualms about the work day, if you truly, deeply dread those eight hours at the office, it is time to put in your two weeks’ notice.

2. You’re procrastinating more than you’re actually working. Everyone procrastinates on occasion, but if there’s nothing you find engaging about your day-to-day work, you should consider if your current position is really a good fit for you. There should be at least some part of your job that is more interesting than scrolling Facebook or browsing BuzzFeed.

3. It’s taking a toll on your health. Are your sick days adding up, out of the blue? Are you resorting to a few (or many) glasses of wine each night to get over a bad day at work? Are you working so many hours you have no time to exercise, eat healthy or get enough sleep? No job is worth sacrificing your wellness.

4. You vent about your job too much. Think about your most common conversations.
Are you constantly complaining about coworkers, about your workplace, about your job itself? A job should bring more positive than negative into your life.

5. You’re overqualified. There are times when we have to take subpar jobs just to get by, but if you’re in a job that you are overqualified for, don’t feel stuck. Stay on alert for positions that fit your skills, which will likely feel more fulfilling than a job that doesn’t measure up to your level of expertise.
