elvaracco Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 You wake up one morning and realize that you're not happy with your work/ career. Quitting is risky since there's a family to support? What's the option? Quote Link to comment
Bameboy Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Been feeling the same for 3 years now...at the moment no choice kelangan makahanap muna ng kapalit na work...haays Each day is torture Quote Link to comment
Marts the man Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Well you can look for a new job first. Once accepted, you then quit on your current work. If the new company you're applying too likes you, they will wait for you to clear your waivers from your past job. Â Hope that helps! Quote Link to comment

dirtyfrank Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 After nine years in an industry, I couldn't take it anymore. I quit with no solid plans on what to do next. I tried a few things here and there but haven't found anything to satisfy me. That was four years ago and I'm still looking. I don't know if I'll ever find it. Quote Link to comment
elvaracco Posted November 13, 2013 Author Share Posted November 13, 2013 I guess its the industry I'm in. Even if I were to look for another job but continue to do what I'm doing, I'd still be miserable. At my age, I'm not sure if I can still switch careers... Quote Link to comment

jasperchua Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Start a small business and be your own boss.Doesn't really matter what it is as long as you are interested in it. Quote Link to comment
buknoy79 Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Almost 9 years nako sa work as a Supervisor. I'm planning to quit my current job pero mahirap talga kasi sigurado wala naman mkakapagoffer ng sahod ko ngayon as starte sa ibang office. Up to know naghahanap pa rin ako pero if wala talga mukang middle east na lang ang bagsak ko. Mejo ayoko sana sa M.E. kasi mahirap nab aka mpwetan ka dun. hahaha Quote Link to comment
breakingbad Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Parang may confusion. Magkaiba yung di mo mahal yung trabaho mo at di ka masaya sa trabaho mo. Dapat siguro alamin mo muna ano ba talaga. Quote Link to comment
Edmund Dantes Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 A carreer is something you need to build on. Kaya konting pasensya dapat kung hindi ka masaya pa sa kinalalagyan mo. Ganyan talaga eh, hindi naman lagi na right after graduation makukuha mo na dream job mo. Minsan kelangan mo magumpisa sa ibaba and work your way up ika nga. Find something you are passionate about. Kung san ka magaling, at ano yung gusto mo gawin kahit di ka naman bayaran. Minsan din, trial and error and proseso ng paghahanap ng isang bagay na magugustuhan mo talaga, pero dapat andun lagi yung dedication mo at syempre hard work and sacrifice. Remember that opportunities come to those who work for it. Kaya be patient. Â Isa pa, dapat din you make steps or plans para sa future mo. Do things na makakatulong iangat skillset mo. If you have to, then go back to school. Meron kasi ako mga kilala na sasabihin di kuntento sa career nila, hindi sila umaangat, pero ayaw naman maginvest ng konti sa ikakaganda ng CV nila. Sasabihin "Ay ewan, ayoko na bumalik nanaman sa classroom, matanda na ako". Quote Link to comment
oniemusha Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 happy too with my work but its getting bored. In addition, one of our co-employee is getting into my nerve lately. No choice but to stay. there is a lot of mouths to feed. Quote Link to comment
Mr.fundamentals Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 I've reach my desired salary to support my family, however I'm not happy with the way the boss manages people. So book based and also no career growth on my end. Quote Link to comment
dinibdib Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 i should be happy and i will try to be happy with my work so that my family can still eat decently Quote Link to comment
bonanas Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 I feel you fellas. Parang I got stuck dun sa "matrix" na study well and get a good job. Don't get me wrong though, nakaka provide naman ako sa family ko and ok naman yung future ko sa company despite the challenges.  But I sometimes stare in the ceiling and there's a being in my chest na nagpupumiglas, this is not me! I should be living my life as an expression of my spirit. Like most of ya'll here ang hirap umalis dun sa safe path. Alam ko naman na yung passion and interest ko ang gusto kong maging buhay ko araw-araw. But yung livelihood and expense namin will set me back once na I do that drastic living the life that I want.  Kaya ngayon I guess my way out is to earn enough pang buffer para kung sakaling mag "YOLO" moves na ko taken cared of ang family ko.  Good luck din sa inyo guys, hope you find your balance and live a passionate, fulfilling life.

Maesternam Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 kaya di ako makaalis is other companies cant offer what im currently making. i go like, this is my basic.. this is my take home pay.. but i can go as low as lower than my basic. been taking up classes, reading online materials as well. company wont promote me as they'd rather promote someone whose in a lower salary grade which i understand naman. just really frustrating Quote Link to comment
AstralChaos Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 I guess I am on the same boat. I might be on that area where I have to read and learn a lot more so another company would hire me at a higher rate. Quote Link to comment
lawrence_d Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 happy that i am working but still looking for something better Quote Link to comment
Rai015 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Im happy with my work but not with the people I work with, in which I think that its worse to be in this position cause my F@#$%^& workmates irritate the F@#$ out me. hahaha Quote Link to comment
elmiedo001 Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 The only way to be happy with work is to enjoy the times your not at work Quote Link to comment
shotcomeon Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Recently resigned as a Software Engineer. Colleagues are the f#&king best, but the work itself is retarded. While I did really enjoy programming during my college days, multimedia talaga ang gusto ko kaso the most painful thing you will hear from your parents is "walang pera diyan". Quote Link to comment
