To travel to another country in order to live with the woman I love.
anon:
To go to college.
Heather:
Wow, both answers sound far better than mine…
I WAS going to go into Job Corps, but then I decided that I needed to stay to have a slim shot at maybe salvaging a friendship that I crushed not a week before I was supposed to leave…so…yes. And I couldn’t even get the damn job back…
-sigh-
Kristy:
The short answer is to go to college.
It’s actually more complicated than that though. First of all, I don’t have a car anymore… And secondly, I found out that the same person that I had to turn in twice for hiding away merchandise from customers is going to become a manager. I won’t take orders from her, when she’s done so much wrong. Oh and of course, thirdly is also that I moved an hour away, and am now going to college. So that part is also true.
Kat:
Because I hated it.
I went to work when most people got home. I worked on Sundays. I hated the food smell on my clothes and hair and I couldn’t even take a good shower when I got back, because everyone else were sleeping. The money was OK but it was just so hard to go there and I didn’t see the point in making myself so unhappy just for money. Now I have a new job. Less money but I feel so much better.
chels:
manager was disrespectful.
m:
To focus on school and family.
(And because I no longer felt like smiling every day of the week.)
Another guy:
I felt that I needed to focus on school, and I didn’t really need the money, so I figured I might as well give myself some free time to do what I want before I wander off to college.
Another girl:
I went off to college and figured it was way more important than trying to maintain a low-paying job.
Because of the thousand speeches preaching for me to believe in something that I didn’t and shunning me because I believed in something different.
The day that I quit I almost gave up on Christianity but then I remembered that I was in it for God and not the people.
I’m still really tired of Christianity.
Kirsten:
My last job was just a summer job, I left it in September to go back to school.
I think it’s interesting that no one has mentioned getting fired or laid off.
kat hills:
i helped a friend out and landed up in jail and lost my job before i was able to let them know why i didnt show up
I quit every 3 to 6 months because i hate dealing with bosses and coworkers SHIT! fuck – i need to grow up. but not today. 🙂
Niklas:
To live in the austrian alps for the winter season to ski and party every day.
N:
Because I got fired.
dude:
because i was late 3 times in a row (5 minutes late) because i missed the bus. stupid mcdonalds!!
i know its my fault…but come on, its just a freakin mcdonalds job. 😀
I just started high school, but I dropped my old community theatre group to join a competitive dance company, and now I’m starting professional dance/performing work.
Jayna:
At my last job I was a caregiver for my grandmother in my home town. I left because I was going to a different city to do college. (:
The job I left was one I had the summer after finishing secondary school. It was full-time. I left to start my PLC course.
sheridan:
disrespectful management and co-workers, I’d rather travel anyway.
Kal:
Shortly after me and my girlfriend broke up, she was in a bad car accident. She was flown to a hospital an hour and a half away and was in terrible shape. I had missed one day that entire year and my boss still refused to let me leave..without thinking I walked out and without a doubt it was one of the best decisions I ever made.
jlc:
I was having an emotional breakdown because I was in an emotionally abusive relationship.
Clutch Cargo:
It Gave Cancer so now I can kick back and enjoy Chemo Therapy…
L:
because my Dad was diagnosed with cancer, and i needed to go be his caretaker
TB:
A VP made a sexual advance which I declined, then proceeded to intimidate me for months, making it clear that my job depended on him so I wouldn’t tell.
Hannah:
No windows.
Jim:
Depression, and because I hated the job: overnight work, low pay, greasy and dirty, hard work, safety precautions being ignored, supervisors and coworkers couldn’t speak English
Jane:
My job was solely focused around making very decisions and a lot of physical activity. Those are my two WORST areas. I prefer inside things that required deep thought and intellect.

I left to serve my country
I just started high school, but I dropped my old community theatre group to join a competitive dance company, and now I’m starting professional dance/performing work.

I left to follow my husband to Japan. One of my favorite decisions yet.
Because I couldn’t handle the stress.
To serve my country’s military.
I became too sick to work. I wish I wasnt
I lit my leg on fire.
The job I left was one I had the summer after finishing secondary school. It was full-time. I left to start my PLC course.
