Have you ever reached a point at your job when you just know it's time to move on? 

When do you move to the point that you're willing to let go of the demons you know for the ones you don't know? 

What was your deciding factor final straw so to speak when you finally faced the decision to find a new job? 

I had one job where I work up every morning wishing I was sick enough to go to the hospital so I wouldn't have to go to work. 

At another job, I was working so many hours I was having trouble actually driving home at 2 or 3 am when I went home. Only job I ever quit without having another job, just physically couldn't take one more day and the final straw was when they asked me to do something unethical and illegal. Thanks to my exhaustion, I had a car accident in the parking lot the day I quit.

Other signs it's time to move on:


You aren't sure if your paycheck will
bounce or not
You are part of a Death March
The work is boring beyond belief
You think someone is sabotaging you
in terms of office politics  - you
start getting fewer responsibilities
and less interesting assignments and
Joe is getting the credit for the
things you did and you are starting
to see emails blaming you for things
that someone else did.
You simply can't live with the
corporate culture
