Antiwork

I just quit my job. Not sure how to feel.

They never treated me badly per se but there were some things going on that I just didn’t want to deal with and I needed better pay and benefits and they weren’t willing to give it to me, even though they sought me for a promotion only six months after I started there. But I just wrote up a letter and sent it as an email to my bosses at the end of the workday and then just left, I know I can get an a better job so I’m not really worried about that but I have been there since June of last year and I did like the work but my depression and stuff just wouldn’t allow me to work well anymore. I couldn’t even use their health insurance because I declined it when I first started thinking that I would get a different type of insurance but…

But I just wrote up a letter and sent it as an email to my bosses at the end of the workday and then just left, I know I can get an a better job so I’m not really worried about that but I have been there since June of last year and I did like the work but my depression and stuff just wouldn’t allow me to work well anymore. I couldn’t even use their health insurance because I declined it when I first started thinking that I would get a different type of insurance but that never worked out, so I would’ve had to have waited till May to reapply, and it would’ve been 1/4 of my monthly paycheck so it was ridiculous. I know I did the right thing for my own mental health and for my own financial situation but I do feel like I left them a lot of work and I was very specialized with what I could do. I also know that it probably isn’t as big a deal to them as it is to me probably, I’m not sure I’m just venting out my feelings right now. I sent the letter about 20 minutes ago and just left the building after my shift and I’m at a friends house now.
I guess I’m just looking for words of encouragement.
