Should I feel bad for quitting a job after a month because I don't like it?
The fact that you are asking the question shows that you are a caring and responsible person, and that you did not enter that situation frivolously. It seems to me that you are dealing with a case of divided loyalties; loyalties to your employer and loyalty to your true self. It sounds like you took on a job you knew you could do, and did your best at it, but it just got harder and harder to go to work each day, and the trade off of your ability and loyalty for the monetary compensation could not overcome the fact that you just are not happy there. You feel guilty for not being loyal to your employer and personally dissatisfied because you are not being true to your inner self.So no, do not feel bad about quitting a job because you do not like it. You have discovered something about how you fit in the world. That is a good thing. And it is better to disappoint an employer (who will find a replacement for you) than to spend years of your lifetime disappointing your self on a gut level.To avoid a cycle of optimistically taking on a job only to find out later it is not right for you (as I have done), I recommend a short cut to job contentment. Find out who YOU truly are first. What really motivates and satisfies you as a person. Then seek out how to earn a living at it. One good example is Cesar Millan, the “Dog Whisperer”.I have used a book by Tieger& Tieger, called “Do What You Are”. It has helped a lot in getting me to where I am far more happy making my living now than ever before. And I am on a path to even more happiness as I develop who I truly am.I truly hope this helps!

Should I feel guilty about quitting my job?
I've been at my job almost 4 months. I don't hate it, but I don't love it. Recently my boss has been trying to "push me out of my comfort zone" (his words) which basically means having me do things that aren't part of my job description, like calling every employee (around 400) and basically doing surveys on them that they don't have time for. I'm going back to school full time in August and can't get the classes I need outside of my M-F 8-5 work schedule. School is a priority for me over a $10 an hour job, so I either have to quit or go to part time, if he'll even let me. I have to do 200 hours a semester of paid work relating to my major, so I have to get a new or second job anyway. The problem is, I feel guilty about quitting (or asking to go part time) because my boss talks about me like I'm going to be working there for 20 years and like I'm the best employee he's ever had. My major is something completely unrelated, so I don't plan to stay there and move up or anything. What should I do? I feel guilty, but should I? Is it wrong to quit a job after a few months?
How should I quit my CNA job?
I want to quit my CNA job because I don't like it and I have realized that this is not what I want to do. I am supposed to work this sunday and I only work sunday and thursdays. I get paid this coming Tuesday, so i'm not sure how I should quit. I mean I don't want to even go back, I just can't. But I don't know if i should just call and tell them that I quit like asap or just call in for every shift. But then when I go in to get my paycheck on tuesday they will probably be like mad and like well why don't you put in your notice instead of just quitting on the spot? I mean I would but I can't take it for even another 2 weeks. I just need some advice on how I should quit and still be able to go get my check on tuesday without them making me feel like crap. Any advice? Please don't tell me to put in my notice or to just stay at the job, because I made up my mind and I can't do either of those. I'm wondering if I should wait until sunday and tell them on that day that I quit or just call them today and tell them so they at least have some notice before my shift comes up. What do you think?
Should I quit if I feel I'm not good enough for my job?
Feeling is different from fact;)What does your boss feel?! That's the million dollar question. If he also feels the same way as you do then perhaps you should start looking for another job at the earliest.But, then again, it also depends on "why" you feel you are not good enough for the job. If you feel your knowledge isn't enough well you can definitely enhance it by reading, consulting seniors etc., If you feel your experience isn't enough then I don't think you are right as your employers obviously felt otherwise and recruited you! If you feel your people handling skill is lacking that also can be learned.So in essence do this exercise. Identify the reason/s why you feel you aren't good enough and analyze whether you can do something in those areas. And try to find out your boss's opinion too, though its not essential nor desirable. Don't quit the job just based on some vague feelings and also without having another offer letter on hand. If after the exercise you still feel you should quit then by all means try for another job and after receiving the offer letter and only then resign.
How should I quit my job without my boss feeling bad?
Alright, I'm 16 and I have a lifeguard job which I hate more than anything. It's just so boring, I sit there all day and stare at the pool. I want to volunteer at a local hospital instead, I don't have time for both. The thing is, my boss is really nice, she's probably the nicest woman I've ever met. Every time I show up for work she asks me how I'm doing and talks to me for about 15 minutes. She thinks that I'm one of her best workers and I feel horrible quitting. I have to though, I want to be a surgeon, so I need to get some experience in the hospital. Any tips? Thanks!
