With the global financial crisis hitting us really hard, if you're no longer happy with your current job, will you stick around for the little money you're making or leave with uncertainty of what's in store?

My girlfriend was in your mentioned situation. She was unsatisfactory her current job. So,She want to quit the job. I agree. we are not at the same city. She will try to find a new job at my city. We know it may be difficult to find a good job at current economic situation.But she will have enought time to improve English and learn more about her major.

Thank you Dennis_Ma and good luck with the both of you. I believe that once opportunities knock, we should not let it pass. Especially if it will be for the better.

I think I will stay under such condition, it is not easy to get a new job outside currently and no job is happy to do now. Most company laid off lots of workers and the workers remaining need to overcome workloads 3 to 4 times more than before.

Those who remain really have a tough call to fulfill. The companies right now are maximizing their resources. But it is still a blessing to those who have the job. Thanks mugglecacr! Keep on posting. Happy MyLotting!

These days, stick with what you got. The only exception to that is if it's a part time job, or with your hours, you can still look for a job, or you're young and you are living with your parents. Other than that, I would never quit a job unless you have another job for sure lined up.

Yeah you have a point. For most of us who have no choice, we just have to value what we have. Thanks marty3888 for your response!

This is a tough decision to make but if you ask me, I would say go for it. As long as your not happy in your work, management, work environment and your salary, I think that leaving your current job makes sense. But make sure that you already have job waiting for you because many people already lost their jobs due to this global crisis and most of them are hoping that they are on the same foot as yours. Just decide wisely. Cheers :-)
