Leaving is a choice, not an escape
Your numbers hold up. If you go, go toward something — you are not being pushed.
Your next three moves
- →Write the one thing that would make you stay. Ask for it before you resign.
- →Line up two conversations outside your company this month, with no pressure to act.
- →Keep six months covered. It is what turns a resignation into a decision.
This is a structured summary of numbers you entered yourself — not career, legal or financial advice, and never a recommendation to quit or stay. Nothing is sent anywhere and no employer can see it.
Why these four and nothing else
Most quit-or-stay advice looks at one thing: how the job feels. Feelings are real, and they are also the input that changes fastest. These four move slower and decide more.
- Money buys the right to be picky. Under two months of cover, almost every option gets worse — you accept the first offer instead of the right one.
- Energy decides how well you can search. Job hunting is a second job. Running it on empty is what turns a three-month search into a nine-month one.
- Your employer's signals change the timing. If a cut is coming anyway, staying a few weeks can mean leaving with a package instead of without one.
Questions people ask before quitting
- How do I know if I should quit my job?
- Look at three things together: your energy, how exposed your job really is, and how many months of expenses your savings cover. This quiz puts all three on one screen with the reasons behind the signal.
- How many months of savings do I need before quitting?
- Many people aim for about six months of essential expenses. Under two months, the quiz treats leaving without something lined up as high pressure, however the job feels.
- Is it the job, or am I just out of energy?
- If your recovery time has dropped for weeks while the load went up, it is often the load, and that can sometimes be fixed without quitting. The quiz shows which side weighs more for you.
- Does this quiz tell me to quit?
- No. It never decides for you. It gives one signal and every reason behind it, so you can disagree with any part. Your answers stay on your device and no employer sees anything.
