Hi, i need advice. I, 30f, was laid off a few months ago and found a new job where I've been at for about a month and a half. The pay is good but the benefits aren't great. I'm not loving the job. I find it kind of boring and slowpaced. I accepted it bc I thought I would be working more in one specific area that i want my career to be in, but it's just not what i thought it'd be.
I recently came into some money, and i planned on using part of it as a down-payment for a house or maybe investing it or somenother boring adukt stuff. However, im thinking i should just quit my job and focus on looking for something I'd like more, and that way, i can also enjoy my summer. I can focus on me and my health too. Im scared, though. What if i can't find another well paying job? But i also dont wanna stay where I'm not happy. Maybe i should be more patient and see if i like it more in a few months? I don't feel like im learning a lot here. I just know i won't look for a job if i stay at this one.
A friend said she would let me work at her bar if I wanted to, so i would still have some type of income. Btw, i dont have any kids or huge responsibilities, so my decision wouldn't really directly affect anyone.
Is there anything you wish you would have done or known before quitting? Anything you wish you would have done once you quit? Any suggestions, comments, or advice is highly appreciated:)
