What are the signs that your job is killing your soul and it's time to move on lol. I'm not sure if I'm being overdramatic or if my job really is the worst.

For me, the sign was when every day started with dread and ended with total burnout, even though the work itself wasn’t that hard. I stopped caring about the little wins and started avoiding people. If you’re feeling drained all the time or can’t picture yourself sticking it out another year, it’s totally okay to start looking elsewhere.

I can usually tell it’s time to leave a job if I can’t fall asleep at night because I’m thinking about work. Or my job invades my dreams or the thought of going to work on Monday morning fills me with panic.

For me, the biggest sign is when I start thinking about work after hours or wake up with anxiety as the weekend ends. I’ve had sleepless nights just stressing about work—and that was a major red flag. When I catch myself fantasizing about random backup careers like "I wish becoming a fairy like I dreamed as a kid was real," that’s when I know something’s seriously off.

When you start to dread every single day at your job and have no motivation. When you start to ask yourself why you're even doing something and feel like zombie going through the motions.

NFW- I just had a good laugh.

We came to a very one-sided provision and my sales VP stated “for this one, how can we just say ‘hell no’ ...nicely?” The other person on the call said we can replace the wording with just NFW (no f@$* way) and I said “I will have to add that to the defined terms section so it’s clear”
