Why I quit my job

A few days ago, I decided to quit my job and I'm really happy with my decision. On the day that I processed my clearance, I began to reminisce the time when I was still an applicant waiting patiently for my turn to be interviewed and to take several tests. I was pretty excited then. After hearing the good news that I got accepted, I was delighted and satisfied at the same time.

When I got my contract, it turned out that the salary is lower than my previous job, with little allowances, and poor benefits. I was quite disappointed, but I still stayed positive.

It's only now that I realized that I actually had several signs not to work there, but I haven't paid attention. Here are some of them:


1.) Low salary

2.) Small workplace (no sleeping quarters, 2 comfort rooms with only 2 cubicles inside, small pantry that serves both as waiting and sleeping areas, no training room)

3.) The operations floor is not appropriately constructed for work. The ceiling is too low, and the air conditioning causes headaches to people near it.

4.) They do not provide parking spaces for employees. You can only park in the street outside. Inconsistent rules.

5.) Only 1 or 2 people who are in the position can speak very well (you know what I mean...)

6.) NO PERKS

7.) The senior manager seems to have a totally different world.

8.) And, the first TL that I had looks odd, with marks of slashes not only on the wrist but on both inner part of his arms.


I miss my friends but I don't worry that much because we can still communicate and see each other if we want to. Now that I'm no longer working there, I feel serene and free.
