    This reminds me of all my old jobs😅, i had 4 different jobs over 6 years from 2014 to 2020 with gaps of unemployment between each one, 2 call centers, a car dealership, and and I.T company, I quit every single one of them without a plan and lost everything i had built up everytime i did so, but i knew i was worth more than R50 to R100 an hour, right after covid in 2021 i landed the job of my dreams, i was 28 years old, to everyone reading this just know your gut feeling will never fail you❤

    Working from home during COVID opened my eyes, I experienced HAPPINESS, FREEDOM and PEACE. When we went back to the office I realised how unhappy I became, went back to being grumpy dad and husband, a year later I resigned and I have never looked back.
    On the last day....I cried as I was driving out. It's not an easy decision to take especially when you have a family to provide for.

    I just reasoned now in December after 6 years of trauma, I was also assistant branch manager, the working condition are too toxic and long working hours. At the same month I resigned I started my e-hailing business with my car and when I got my pension I bought another second hand car that I’m renting out for indrive I make more than what I was making as a ABM in that bank. This also afforded me an opportunity to go back to school as I have more time. I’m doing my PGCE now through CPUT. All I can say to those who are still there, it is possible, there is so much more out there. They always feed you that lie “be grateful of your job there is someone who is praying to be where you are”

      Pray extra for that baby, you’re carrying a Moses, a John or Esther - anointed before s/he was conceived & enemy is attacking you & family to resent his birth. Devil is a liar. I went through the most with my 3rd son who is last born - boss was going through a divorce & I informed her at 3 months that I’m pregnant. I was even invited to HR to look for jobs internally before my maternity leave. I came back after maternity to serve those equal & I resigned to focus on the business I started during leave. Today our son is such a blessing, he’s a model child, gets straight As, he’s so gifted & loves Jesus so much he reads the Bible on his since he was able to reach children ones. I got him a teen one when he turned 11, he’s never looked back. I prayed extra for him because of the stress & adversity when he was on his way & didn’t that negative energy to pin on him.

A career change is not easy but not impossible, do courses that is in line with your goals and keep at it until you land that job.

      Right now I dont even know anymore what to do nxt. I'm even considering going bck,which i'm nt even sure is possible with the gap I know have in my employment history.
      Thank You for sharing your story, it has validated my own life story. Where in most cases you look insane for leaving a permant job.

    Guys, please do not quit your jobs without a reasonable plan. Unemployment can make mental health and financial problems much worse. The economy is terrible and jobs are scarce. Use your wisdom when making such decisions. For those who found better jobs - good for you! But there are people who are unemployed for years after impulsively quitting. Videos like this can feel like validation, but what is your reality?

      Sometimes it's either you leave your job or lose your mental health. A lot of people who decide to leave without having another job as yet are on the edge of going crazy🤞🏽

Ever since i started working there i developed severe anxieties and struggled with depression up until I was recently diagnosed with MDD (Major Depression Disorder) I am on medoy, did not disclose to my family because I am not ready. Furthering my studies on the side, for me its a whole thing of waiting in a psychiatric department on monthly basis to fetch meds a whole postgraduate!
    I am planning my exit. My experience has been hell.

    I totally relate to this. I worked for the same retail bank for about a mere 2years..... Trust it was the worst years, the pressure, the mental& health issues, the targets, the toxicity levels woooow. I made the decision to leave in 2019 2 days prior to the bonus being paid. I left without another opportunity and with a car debt and school fees hanging on my shoulders. This was the best decision ever after serving in various branches. I got another job with another institute the cycle started again. I got a 3rd job in the banking industry, with a much better pay, however thanks to the previous retail bank ways of banking, most banks have now taken up giving a million duties and responsibilities over and above your main segment with no increase. Now back to square one- the stress, pressure pile up, targets, health &mental issues all crept in and I have made a decision no more. The banking industry truly isn't for me. I am done, what an experience but I am at peace.
