You might face following situation, think over how to find more job solutions instead of quitting
1.Feeling Overworked
You probably are overworked. Employers have cut back on hiring and are expecting employees to do more with fewer resources.
Talk with your employer, after collecting good data and evidence, if you find that the job is indeed more work than one person can comfortably handle. Brainstorm options that include these: hire a new employee, assign a part-time employee to work with you, identify tasks you can stop doing, and determine the value-added must do's and eliminate non-critical job components.
Take time to flowchart your work processes and see where you have waste in the process. Are you doing rework? How does extra time or steps make your work processes more difficult and time-consuming than they warrant?
2.Dislike Your Career Field and Job
Sometimes, people discover that they have chosen the wrong career or field of work. They dislike the activities and the actual content of the job. If you fundamentally don't like the work, consider these actions.
Spend a year exploring your career options and needs. Meet with people already working in the fields you are exploring. Determine education or credentials necessary to move on
Make a careful plan with a timeline, and move on.
3. You Dislike Your Employer, Co-workers or Customers
Maybe you like your work but dislike your current employer, co-workers or customers. Explore your options to move to a different employer. Make sure that the unhappiness isn't inside of you, however, and that it really is due to the actions of others.
If you see a pattern in your actions - starting out excited about a new location and job, but then quickly becoming disillusioned, the unhappiness may all be internally generated. In this case, only you can make you feel better about work.
Start out by exploring whether you have any control over any aspect of the situation that is bothering you. If you identify some, try fixing them. Perhaps sitting in the break room listening to people complain is ruining your good spirits. Stay out of there for awhile to see if your outlook improves.
Consider transferring to a new work area or trading customers with a co-worker.
4.You Can't Stand Your Boss
This is the number one reason people give for why they leave their current job or employer. When managers are nasty, abusive, and controlling, this is understandable. There are more subtle things some managers do, however, that drive staff away. These include failing to involve people in decisions about their work, failing to appreciate staff contributions, and failing to develop the talents and abilities of their employees. If you find yourself in such a situation, try these actions.
Try talking to your manager about your concerns. Many people don't realize the effect their actions create. Others just don't care. See which category your manager falls in.
If you are planning to leave anyway, you have not got a lot to lose. Talk with your manager's boss or your Human Resources department to see if they can remedy the situation.
Transfer to a different department. Try to remove yourself from the manager's influence.
