Everyone considers leaving their job at some point.As people, we want to be considered responsible. Society encourages you to be responsible and rewards you accordingly. No one wants to be considered the type of person that bails out when the company gets tough and cutbacks are made. However, holding onto a dying system is not healthy (or profitable) either. Timing is everything. I have also witnessed people looking for a new job on Wednesday, rolling into the weekend and then thinking Monday will be better at work. Their efforts are inconsistent in the search and they remain unhappy, fooling themselves into thinking there is no place else to go.
