Companies want good slaves who are married/have kids. After about 20 years working, I'll tell young people you should not have any loyalty to any organization, they will turn on you in a second when its convenient and fire/replace you. Also to ensure no slavery, young people dont get married and dont get a girl pregnant, make sure she takes the birth control pill daily in front of you and both wear protection. You will just condemn your new child to increasing poverty and freedomless slavery and these control/money/job trends worsen. Promote this idea in videos and social media to help prevent more young people into this new slavery.
@@rejectionistmanifesto8836 Yes. Even though in my country India people are creating 2 to 3 kids in already overpopulated country with Less amount of income.
@@Fan-zx1lz yes sadly in the future with computer automation and robotics there will be very few jobs and everyone competing for it at low pay and less food and the rich hate regular people having children so will make the average person's life 10 times worse than today
Just quit my job a couple of months ago. Best decision ever! I used to not be a "job hopper" and a "quitter" but Idc because life is about being happy and not miserable all of the time. Most jobs are just doing too much these days and I'm good on that! I asked myself one day, "Why do I have to keep working so much to get paid so little?" I didn't have an answer which made me think about LIFE in general.
I was a waitress for years which I lost because of covid, which gave me time to reflect. Now i'm getting so many offers to go back telling me they'll give me more money than last time. HELL NO!!! zero hour contract, working every weekend, late nights, dealing with nightmare customers, think i'll pass.
Yes, Tim, Yessss!!!! Say it loud. Some people are still scared but the time is now. The great awakening is here. This is why so many people are taking back their power and saying "F*ck this crappy ass job!"
found a good paying part time job where nobody NOT a single person speaks to me and I love it. Also I’ve been editing on fiverr, thanks for all your tips Tim!

Set your self a plan, don't just quit to be stressed about money. If you have debt pay it off, embrace minimalism sell thinks you don't use. After you pay your debts (minus house debt if you have one), start growing your emergency fund for atleast a year. Then save to have your bills paid for a year or 6 months. After that save some more to enjoy yourself while recharging before take another challenge. Good luck on your plan and hang in there, I'm on the hole as well but will get free very soon within 3 years.
A huge issue is people feel trapped in a bad job, at the same time are trapped with bad financial skills and have huge debt, with no emergency fund. Being trapped in a job you hate is an EMERGENCY. Do whatever you have to do to get out of the financial trap first. The freedom of that will empower you to the next phase, either quit and relax, do some traveling and exploration to find yourself, for your next endeavor. Plan to do what YOU want to do.
The sad part is that the financial trap was placed in their path on purpose, it's by design. They want you so broke and in debt that you can't leave your soul ducking place of employment.

December 30 is my last day. I've been saving for a few years. I'm going to take a break... Go back to working on my channel, do gig jobs and maybe something part time but that's it. No more full time for me in 2022. I need my life back!!!

Quit my job back in August and it was the absolute best thing I ever did in my life … Ok, maybe too 3 I swear I hated that job with a passion … I literally wanted to wrap my car around a tree in the mornings on the way there versus having to put in another soul sucking 10 hours Thanks for all your videos brother … You are a true inspiration
I thought I was the only one who fantasized about crashing their car instead of going into work lol. Been there, thought of that 😂. Glad you got out of that environment! And I really appreciate your kind words.
I'm a habitual job hopper and I love it! My current one is one I enjoy most out of any I've ever had but I'm already planning my exit after being here for about 7 weeks lol. Change is a beautiful thing! ❤️
Something Ive noticed about bills is that theyre always higher and more the higher paying jobs Ive worked. The more I made the more I spend. Now I work 7 days a week making $20 a day but it taught me save.
I remember a guy telling me the same thing when I was like 19. He told me to make sure I didn't fall into that trap. He said to make more but spend the same. Glad to hear you learned to start saving!
I have a bunch of wasted degrees too! Honestly, I would have never went to college or grad school, unless absolutely necessary for something I was sure of. We were lied to.
About to go work 12 hour night shift out in the cold working for railroad. Hate it with passion. Scared to quit because of the great benefits for the family. Damn this sux.

@@Eagle-zl4gzDoes your part-time job pay well or did you have savings since most people can barely live on a full time job? Most people work part time jobs in retirement or if they are just out of high school where they don't need much money. I think part time jobs may be easier to get hired at but sometimes they still have ridiculous requirements and it's not worth the trouble for a small amount of money.
I quit my job... Got enough savings and investments to last me awhile. Going to travel the world. The world is abundant! Live your life! Thank you Tim for the inspiration!
That's awsome. I'm on the FIRE journey and will reach Lean FIRE by 2025 when will turn 37 y. Can't wait to be free and do whatever I want with my time. To begin with, will be taking 1 year off just to recharge and find myself again. The paycheck is amazing but I can't take the long hours meeting every week, deal with mean clients and asshole bosses anymore. Everyday I feel dead but can't just quit and worry about finances. I'm tired everyday and the only thing I do is sleeping. I'm doing my best to save as much as I can for my exit plan on the corporate slavery world. I love doing people's hair so, I think it's will be my next adventure after break free from slavery.
Fortunately I like my job. I'm just waiting to muster up the courage to finally move into my car. I want to have my full time job while living in my car so that I can save a bunch of money and go wherever I want when I'm not working. Your videos fascinate me by the way. I love listening to you talk about anything and everything.
@@greenlightwoody9988 not yet. I decided to go back to school so I can get a better job first. But, I traded in my car and got a van. Easier to convert. So, it is still gonna happen.
I'm in the planning stages of trying to get out of my job. I work retail and I hate it with a passion. I hate being around people all day and dealing with all the crazy personalities. It's just not for me.
In the early 2000s I got laid off through no fault of my own. I had rent to pay and student loans. What I found out was that being thrown out of the comfort zone will motivate you and you will make it happen. When you are working a job you have no motivation (and time) to figure it out. But once you are without those things you will figure it out.. after all you have 10 hours a day now to think and explore your options.
A few days ago, I walked out mid shift of a job where I was being harassed by multiple coworkers and my leads, managers, and HR didn’t do ANYTHING to help me. If I were to tell you what major corporation it was you might be shocked! Thank you for these words Tim, definitely about to prioritize my happiness and what I really want out of life! 🙏🏽
I recommend personal unpaid leave to reflect. Gives you time to explore and rest and plan, which helps prevent a knee jerk reaction that could be regrettable when you realize you still have bills and now zero health insurance. Personal unpaid leave is a nice segue if it’s an option for you. I’m on leave and see that I just needed a long break not necessarily to throw in the towel. At least not til some more careful planning is done.
ROFLMAO!!! I feel you 100%. I spent over 2 decades dealing with customers in one way or another (office jobs). I finally got fed up. Now I'm a gig worker doing deliveries. I drive around all day in my car by myself and I love it. I make a lot less money than I used but I am so much happier and I no longer have that stress or anxiety that I had on a daily basis. Life is good.
Very true. I think we’d all be able to cope better with time off. I’m Sweden, they have five weeks paid vacation a year. Imagine how much better it would be if we all were able to look forward to taking a week off every two and a half months. And that doesn’t even include the sick/personal time they get.
Just came back from my soul crushing job where my supervisor is the absolutely worst … she makes everyday going to my job he’ll …. Ready to quick so bad
This video is great for guys like us. I have no kids and money saved up, but if you have kids and bills, just quitting is incredibly stupid. I agree with the not working overtime, but just quitting with no plan while trying to feed a family is not as easy as you think.
What? Just because you become a parent doesn’t mean you’re dreams are over. I’ve written 5 books. I’ve got two degrees, and I’m about to go back for another one. My kid is older so I do things around her schedule. But your life or dreams are NEVER over just because you have children.
I've been following your quitting journey on your channel! I'm glad that you are loving working part time. I think that's an option that doesn't get to talked about enough.
Another way to have lots of free time is have 2 jobs working 2 days a week. Work one in the morning and one in the afternoon the same 2 days. Then u will have 4 days off every week.
I'm quitting in a week. Going to pick up my new (used) prius. Selling everything everything I own. Headed to the ski areas and will turn the prius I to a micro camper
I find that looking for a job while already having a job is the best scenario. We’re more likely to not lower our standards on the new job search (out of desperation)because we still have income coming in lol
The title of this video along with the thumbnail stood out to me; I am so afraid to leave even though I’ve calculated and prepared. I’ve been depressed af and the depression is real. I just got off and now I’m at the pizza shop ordering some bs just to eat my feelings…pray for me y’all
You can get a job anywhere if you walk in and say “ I’ll train for free and pick up shifts”, there’s always a need for that and people will call, you’ll be full time quickly
I searched for a new job for couple months until I found what I wanted, gave two weeks notice to my boss and I started my new job two weeks ago. Try to do that and don’t be stuck.
Very inspirational man! I went from working for a call center to working when I want to! Can't wait to start traveling next year. The freedom is everything to live for. No more waiting for your PTO time to get approved
would love to see more practical advice, been watching the channel on and off for a bit but videos like this or ones like the more practical ones you're looking to make are just a lot more informative as well as entertaining, keep up the great work Tim!
I try to mix it up and do a good balance of motivational and practical videos. Different viewers prefer different types of video. Thanks for the feedback!
Thank You Mr. Ward, for yet another beautiful but the most crucial video.✌️👍 I Thank my stars for being single and that we are living in an age where, we are given the opportunity to quit some crappy job ..for you have ignited that spark in us and given hope that there is a light 💡 at the end of the tunnel( called the rat race🏃)... which I can now see.🚂 May God bless you brother.🙏
I love the idea. But, I’ve been unemployed before and it was terrifying. It’s what happens next. I agree that you need to find that other job or source of income FIRST!!!
Never quit a job based solely on how you feel. Too many people quit on impulse with no plan. If you dont like your job be looking for another then quit. You may hate your job but you know whats worse? Being broke with no job, the amount of stress that adds to your life is nerve racking.
I mentioned in the video that for some people, especially people with responsibilities, the best way to quit involves making a 6 month or 1 year plan for quitting. But I also think that for some of us the best method is to just walk away. I listen to my feelings. I'd rather be broke and stressed while looking for another job than stressed working a 9 to 5 and having no freedom. But that's just me
I've been broke with no job and stressed with constant pressure from family. Now I work a soul-sucking job. I would much rather be broke again and figure other ways out to make money then ever have to slave away for someone else.
I quit my job Wednesday inspired by you. I’m 61 and have never quit a job without another job lined up. I also never had a part time job. I look forward to reporting back to you, my new guru!!!
Hi Timothy! New subscriber here and I definitely needed this motivation. I still want to work a 9-5 and while I'm working remote exhibits sales with a stressful company, I want to work in-person Hotel event services- that is my passion, hospitality. I have started applying and reaching out to professionals on Linkedin where I'm at in Chicago, but am going to go harder after this one! I can't quit though, since I have a lease apartment, but thank you for the motivation : )
I quit my job in November 2019....travelled to Africa(Rwanda and Uganda) for two years and returned to Canada October 2021.. thinking of my next destination.
Don't you worry. I'm 50 yrs old and I've quit many jobs over the years even with nothing else lined up. One thing that life has taught me is that things always work out if you believe that it will. We live in a world of abundance and you will find your way along your journey. Do not let fear get in the way. Blessings to you!
I'm always switching jobs cause i always get better offers. sometimes they work and sometimes they don't but I can always go back to my old jobs cause I'm a good worker. My mom thinks ik crazy cause im always switching but i get bored lol.
I'm the same way when it comes to jobs Alex. After a year or so I get bored lol. But I would always keep getting offers to come back to the jobs I left lol.
AMEN, Tim!!! I've been doing temp/contract work for years! A woman told me, back in 1998, to "get into contracting". I didn't fully understand what she was talking about then. I sure do now! It's like she was psychic! 😄 I used to pursue and work mostly "direct-hire" permanent jobs. I did do temp work while looking. Now, I only pursue contract/temp work. In these current times, I appreciate the different opportunities of independent work that is available. It can be a bit challenging at times, but if you can afford to do it, go for it.
Thanks for this video Tim. I'm currently in a position where I havent quit because I don't know where I will go. The thing that I thought I loved may not be what I actually love. I don't know what I want to do as a career and I don't even know where to start looking for what it is that excites me. It's a tough spot :/
Happy Thanksgiving, Tim!! Btw, guess what?? Just bought a 1989 Toyota Winnebago Dolphin so I’m getting out of the rent cycle!!!! Going to take my job on the road and spend more of my time volunteering at wildlife or animal sanctuaries or shelters. And spend time in nature. I’m so excited, I pick it up Monday!!!!!
What sucks is that I cant even make the interviews because I don't have a set time to leave. We dont leave till they tell us when to leave that same day. You can't even make plans. It's crazy!
I've been at my job, for almost 30 years. I've got nothing better to do. And besides, my car knows the way there. Most aspects of my job are reasonable.
You have been lied to believe that if your not insanely passionate about your job then its not for you. Jobs are first for security so you can have shelter and food. As long as your not completely miserable at your job stay in it to secure yourself and fund passions.
What I love about you which is also the main reason I follow your channel is your guts to say straight what you think is right. Agree or Disagree, your courage and sincerity are commendable and you certainly do not need me to say that.

Stop going to college without having a GOAL at the end. And you only need to go to college if that GOAL requires a degree.
parental pressure and lack of discussion early in a kids life causes this alot. Gap years should start being more accepted for better planning.

I finally did it 5 month ago you are right never been so 😊 don't have insurance don't care hated it for years employers deserve there pain
That's awesome Edith!!
@@GO-cz7cl got that one right 😊
@@GO-cz7cl wow yes
Im quitting my job soon for sure.
I just quit Walmart Sunday no cap! They stole my overtime after a 105 hours in 2 weeks and got 91 on my check. Im good.
Perfect timing too.. that BF weekend 😆
Glad you walked out bro. It's definitely not worth it if they aren't even giving you all your money lol
@@TimothyWard I'm glad I left too. Just like you said if i can use those hours to make them rich i can do it for myself.
Put my 2 week notice in. My last day is June 25th. I'm so excited for freedom. I will be doing Instacart & Ubereats while working on my mental health.
Man you just don't know. Think about it almost every day. 🤦🏿♂️
I literally started a new job two weeks ago… happy with my new job ☺️
Glad to hear the new job is working out for you!
I quit my job... Got enough savings and investments to last me awhile. Going to travel the world. The world is abundant! Live your life!
Thank you Tim for the inspiration!
Congrats!!! ✈️🙏 start a channel
That's awesome! Have fun seeing the world!!! I'm glad my content could play a part in your making your decision 👍
That's awsome. I'm on the FIRE journey and will reach Lean FIRE by 2025 when will turn 37 y. Can't wait to be free and do whatever I want with my time. To begin with, will be taking 1 year off just to recharge and find myself again. The paycheck is amazing but I can't take the long hours meeting every week, deal with mean clients and asshole bosses anymore. Everyday I feel dead but can't just quit and worry about finances. I'm tired everyday and the only thing I do is sleeping. I'm doing my best to save as much as I can for my exit plan on the corporate slavery world.
I love doing people's hair so, I think it's will be my next adventure after break free from slavery.
@@TheCelmap anything is possible...... start anything on the side just for fun. You might be able to FIRE earlier than 2025!
Fortunately I like my job. I'm just waiting to muster up the courage to finally move into my car. I want to have my full time job while living in my car so that I can save a bunch of money and go wherever I want when I'm not working. Your videos fascinate me by the way. I love listening to you talk about anything and everything.
Sounds like a great plan to save up money. I can understand your hesitation though, it is a big step. Good luck!
Did you ever move Into your car ?
@@greenlightwoody9988 not yet. I decided to go back to school so I can get a better job first. But, I traded in my car and got a van. Easier to convert. So, it is still gonna happen.
I'm in the planning stages of trying to get out of my job. I work retail and I hate it with a passion. I hate being around people all day and dealing with all the crazy personalities. It's just not for me.
In the early 2000s I got laid off through no fault of my own. I had rent to pay and student loans. What I found out was that being thrown out of the comfort zone will motivate you and you will make it happen. When you are working a job you have no motivation (and time) to figure it out. But once you are without those things you will figure it out.. after all you have 10 hours a day now to think and explore your options.
I love to read all the comments because they are important to me
Same. It's good to be able to see the collective consciousness of the community
Also since I’ve been my own boss for three years, it’s so weird to think about working in a job like I used to!! I make less money but I have freedom.
This absolutely describes me. I have no fetters, so I have no excuse. The only hurdle I have left is letting go of the false comfort.
I haven't worked since May. I am going back twice a week. This is after traveling for two years.
I think you should try getting on a stage and try to become a motivational speaker. I can see you doing that!!
He’s already doing it! This is his stage. And he’s got thousands of viewers
I was just talking to a friend of mine about motivational speaking. I'm definitely going to look into it more.
@@TimothyWard You are, checkout Les Brown.
A few days ago, I walked out mid shift of a job where I was being harassed by multiple coworkers and my leads, managers, and HR didn’t do ANYTHING to help me. If I were to tell you what major corporation it was you might be shocked! Thank you for these words Tim, definitely about to prioritize my happiness and what I really want out of life! 🙏🏽
I hit the like button and the video didn't even start yet. 🤣🤣🤣🤣. All I know is I'm quitting!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣.
I always do the same thing!! 😂😂😂
I recommend personal unpaid leave to reflect. Gives you time to explore and rest and plan, which helps prevent a knee jerk reaction that could be regrettable when you realize you still have bills and now zero health insurance. Personal unpaid leave is a nice segue if it’s an option for you. I’m on leave and see that I just needed a long break not necessarily to throw in the towel. At least not til some more careful planning is done.
Yeah some people gotta be careful about just quitting with no plan and/or money and benefits to tide them over.
Very wise indeed money is the point for survival I've seen too many homeless people in my life to just say fuck it lol
I do that right now, i have savings for more than a year.
More people on here need to take heed to ur advice because money IS a necessity.
Good advice! Im going to try that.
Already did Tim, now I work doing something I enjoy! Not sure what the future holds but it ain't crappy soul sucking jobs! Thanks for the motivation!
15 things I want in my next job:
1. Not have to deal with customers.
2. Not have to deal with customers.
.
.
.
15. Not have to deal with customers.
Not have to deal with customers directly right?
ROFLMAO!!! I feel you 100%. I spent over 2 decades dealing with customers in one way or another (office jobs). I finally got fed up. Now I'm a gig worker doing deliveries. I drive around all day in my car by myself and I love it. I make a lot less money than I used but I am so much happier and I no longer have that stress or anxiety that I had on a daily basis. Life is good.
😆…customers suck like hell.
@@FG-yl3oj 👏🏼which delivery service are you using?
So...I'm sensing you aren't a people person 😂😂
Very true. I think we’d all be able to cope better with time off. I’m Sweden, they have five weeks paid vacation a year. Imagine how much better it would be if we all were able to look forward to taking a week off every two and a half months. And that doesn’t even include the sick/personal time they get.
Just came back from my soul crushing job where my supervisor is the absolutely worst … she makes everyday going to my job he’ll …. Ready to quick so bad
This video is great for guys like us. I have no kids and money saved up, but if you have kids and bills, just quitting is incredibly stupid. I agree with the not working overtime, but just quitting with no plan while trying to feed a family is not as easy as you think.
When you have kids your life is over. All your goals and ambitions go down the drain if you are going to be any parent worth a dam.
What? Just because you become a parent doesn’t mean you’re dreams are over. I’ve written 5 books. I’ve got two degrees, and I’m about to go back for another one. My kid is older so I do things around her schedule. But your life or dreams are NEVER over just because you have children.
Currently working part time and I’m absolutely loving it!!!!!! Had to become debt free first but life is awesome for me for now
I've been following your quitting journey on your channel! I'm glad that you are loving working part time. I think that's an option that doesn't get to talked about enough.
Another way to have lots of free time is have 2 jobs working 2 days a week. Work one in the morning and one in the afternoon the same 2 days. Then u will have 4 days off every week.
Wow🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Exactly.
excuse my question: why not just one job twice a week?
@@sissi6013 bills and 🏍🤣
Oh that part about 2/3 of coworkers you don’t like. Too real. Waiting to hear on a job I just applied for, hope I can get out soon damn
I'm quitting in a week. Going to pick up my new (used) prius. Selling everything everything I own. Headed to the ski areas and will turn the prius I to a micro camper
About to be living that #priuslife! That's so cool. Good luck on your new adventure/lifestyle!
I find that looking for a job while already having a job is the best scenario. We’re more likely to not lower our standards on the new job search (out of desperation)because we still have income coming in lol
That's a good point
The title of this video along with the thumbnail stood out to me; I am so afraid to leave even though I’ve calculated and prepared. I’ve been depressed af and the depression is real. I just got off and now I’m at the pizza shop ordering some bs just to eat my feelings…pray for me y’all
You can get a job anywhere if you walk in and say “ I’ll train for free and pick up shifts”, there’s always a need for that and people will call, you’ll be full time quickly
My job sucks more than anything. I am working just 7 hrs a day, 3 days a week, and studying to get a better job.
Glad you have a plan for leaving Shawn. Hang in there, it'll be 'quittin time' before you know it!
I would love to quit. Believe me. But there is this mortgage.. and this loan to pay, and there is no end in sight...
I searched for a new job for couple months until I found what I wanted, gave two weeks notice to my boss and I started my new job two weeks ago. Try to do that and don’t be stuck.
Very inspirational man! I went from working for a call center to working when I want to! Can't wait to start traveling next year. The freedom is everything to live for. No more waiting for your PTO time to get approved
That sounds great brother
@@javi7602 Much appreciated
I can’t! I have a car note! I’m applying to other jobs!
Get rid of your car and take public transport or walk…..
Good to watch when you have one of those days with ahole coworkers and bosses you can't stand..
quit your job ... forever !!
would love to see more practical advice, been watching the channel on and off for a bit but videos like this or ones like the more practical ones you're looking to make are just a lot more informative as well as entertaining, keep up the great work Tim!
I try to mix it up and do a good balance of motivational and practical videos. Different viewers prefer different types of video. Thanks for the feedback!
Thank You Mr. Ward, for yet another beautiful but the most crucial video.✌️👍
I Thank my stars for being single and that we are living in an age where, we are given the opportunity to quit some crappy job ..for you have ignited that spark in us and given hope that there is a light 💡 at the end of the tunnel( called the rat race🏃)... which I can now see.🚂
May God bless you brother.🙏
Thank you Dave!
ohh im about to give resignation letter this week. boss want more projects but same little paychecks and that doesn't serve me. QUIT THE JOB!
Tell ‘em, Mr. Quit Your Job!
😁😁 I might start running with that name lol
@@TimothyWard I like it ;)
I love the idea. But, I’ve been unemployed before and it was terrifying. It’s what happens next. I agree that you need to find that other job or source of income FIRST!!!
I agree 100 percent. You should do a video on people getting out of winter and enjoying life
I needed to hear this. Everything you said has sitting in the back(more like the forefront) of my brain for several months. I feel inspired!!
Man everytime I drive by that place I wanna work there..go up in there…YALL GOT JWABBZZ???😂😂😂😂😂 oh man this had me cracking up.
Lmaooo I thought of that movie “don’t me a menace to south central
😂😂
Never quit a job based solely on how you feel. Too many people quit on impulse with no plan. If you dont like your job be looking for another then quit. You may hate your job but you know whats worse? Being broke with no job, the amount of stress that adds to your life is nerve racking.
I mentioned in the video that for some people, especially people with responsibilities, the best way to quit involves making a 6 month or 1 year plan for quitting. But I also think that for some of us the best method is to just walk away. I listen to my feelings. I'd rather be broke and stressed while looking for another job than stressed working a 9 to 5 and having no freedom. But that's just me
I've been broke with no job and stressed with constant pressure from family. Now I work a soul-sucking job. I would much rather be broke again and figure other ways out to make money then ever have to slave away for someone else.
@@artorias-24 you need a viable job there is no escaping the work force for 90% of the population.
I quit my job Wednesday inspired by you. I’m 61 and have never quit a job without another job lined up. I also never had a part time job. I look forward to reporting back to you, my new guru!!!
How’s life been?
45 year mortgage lol classic
I can’t quit pizza, the game needs me! I stay hustlin dough!
Bars!
Word my nerd 😎
Hi Timothy! New subscriber here and I definitely needed this motivation. I still want to work a 9-5 and while I'm working remote exhibits sales with a stressful company, I want to work in-person Hotel event services- that is my passion, hospitality. I have started applying and reaching out to professionals on Linkedin where I'm at in Chicago, but am going to go harder after this one! I can't quit though, since I have a lease apartment, but thank you for the motivation : )
Just keep grinding Rodalyn! I can tell that you aren't going to stop until you get what you want!
I quit my job in November 2019....travelled to Africa(Rwanda and Uganda) for two years and returned to Canada October 2021.. thinking of my next destination.
I quit my job Tim and I’m frikkin terrified I’m lost 🤦🏽♂️
You and me both are a bit terrified
Don't you worry. I'm 50 yrs old and I've quit many jobs over the years even with nothing else lined up. One thing that life has taught me is that things always work out if you believe that it will. We live in a world of abundance and you will find your way along your journey. Do not let fear get in the way. Blessings to you!
Make a written plan and act according to plan.
never quit on impulse you need to have an actual plan first
I get terrified of working a job more than 6 months straight
If you breath, they’ll hire you! Put out your expectations. They’ll give it to you.😀
Haven't worked since February! F work
Yasssss!
Lmaoooooo
I'm ten years in at my factory job pays 24 an hour it sucks royal ass but being a provider is self explanatory
I'm always switching jobs cause i always get better offers. sometimes they work and sometimes they don't but I can always go back to my old jobs cause I'm a good worker. My mom thinks ik crazy cause im always switching but i get bored lol.
I'm the same way when it comes to jobs Alex. After a year or so I get bored lol. But I would always keep getting offers to come back to the jobs I left lol.
I get bored easy too Alex. Not just with jobs tho, I switch up a lot of things in my life cause I really enjoy newness a lot. 🥰
You have to make goals…..with all goals you need a plan….so make your goal to quit and have a plan…
I quit in March. I put up with the annoying pandemic procedures… until they have me a 1% raise.. nope. Screw that
Wow, a 1% raise, yeah I would quit too lol
@@TimothyWard two years in a row! That was my sign to leanfire
1% raise?! That’s so incredibly insulting 😒 I’m so glad you quit!
AMEN, Tim!!! I've been doing temp/contract work for years! A woman told me, back in 1998, to "get into contracting". I didn't fully understand what she was talking about then. I sure do now! It's like she was psychic! 😄 I used to pursue and work mostly "direct-hire" permanent jobs. I did do temp work while looking. Now, I only pursue contract/temp work. In these current times, I appreciate the different opportunities of independent work that is available. It can be a bit challenging at times, but if you can afford to do it, go for it.
I've been watching you since the Greyhound advise videos. You've evolved and give the best game on UA-cam. Yes...I said it...game
Thanks! The game is to be told, not sold lol
I quit my terrible previous job! I'm working on breaking into the Tech industry, it's difficult but worthwhile.
Good luck!
I don't want to quit my job I just want to quit working FULLTIME and semi retire.
I just quit that shit
Thank you Tim!! We all need this video. What you do means a lot to us. I read a lot of the comments and you are changing lives🙏
Thanks for this video Tim. I'm currently in a position where I havent quit because I don't know where I will go. The thing that I thought I loved may not be what I actually love. I don't know what I want to do as a career and I don't even know where to start looking for what it is that excites me. It's a tough spot :/
If you dont have a wife or kids take as long as you like.
My wife and son lives outside the USA. So when I want to see them no need to ask a manager for vacation time for that. I work for myself
This is freedom
Happy Thanksgiving, Tim!! Btw, guess what?? Just bought a 1989 Toyota Winnebago Dolphin so I’m getting out of the rent cycle!!!! Going to take my job on the road and spend more of my time volunteering at wildlife or animal sanctuaries or shelters. And spend time in nature. I’m so excited, I pick it up Monday!!!!!
That's awesome Terri!!! I know you are going to have an adventure and make some great memories!
@@TimothyWard planning on it! May even start UA-cam? Lol
What sucks is that I cant even make the interviews because I don't have a set time to leave. We dont leave till they tell us when to leave that same day. You can't even make plans. It's crazy!
I've been at my job, for almost 30 years. I've got nothing better to do. And besides, my car knows the way there. Most aspects of my job are reasonable.
You are a mind reader…been thinking about quitting for over a year now.🤔
Go for it Rose!
Happy Thanksgiving. Eve
Thank you Kellyanne! Same to you!
@@TimothyWard 🙂
GET THEM 1099'S ROLLIN' IN !!!!!!!
Been there Quit. But now I am not better off. Have a new job. It's just ok.
You have been lied to believe that if your not insanely passionate about your job then its not for you. Jobs are first for security so you can have shelter and food. As long as your not completely miserable at your job stay in it to secure yourself and fund passions.
Just ok?
What I love about you which is also the main reason I follow your channel is your guts to say straight what you think is right. Agree or Disagree, your courage and sincerity are commendable and you certainly do not need me to say that.
Tim is an open book. Full transparency. Love that
I love that about him, too.
