I opted to quit my job so that I could dedicate myself to my job search full-time. It was a huge risk…and one that I wouldn’t have been able to take if I didn’t have some freelance gigs going on. Anyway, my biggest issue was taking time off for interviews. I did it a few times…but normally, I’m not one to take my full lunch (it’s paid). And rarely when I did have an interview, could I get there and back within an hour. So I would end up taking a 1/2 day PTO several times. Eventually, co-workers, maybe even my manager began to suspect what was up. Well it was what it was. It’s not like the job were going to come leaping out at me.

Anyway, I felt that the fairest thing to do all around was to just leave. It took 3 long months to secure another position. But in the end, I truly believe that it was worth it!
