Quitting Day

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I hear ya. I am so ready to start school! Bring it on.
 
I quit my dental lab job after I got an interview. It felt awesome.
 
Well three weeks left for me still.. butcant wait to be done! Want to get my summer started and find an apartment that I can live in for the next 4 YEARS!!!!
 
My last day at work will be in one week, then I have a few planned trips and a summer long of relaxation while living off my gf before school starts.
 
I haven't told my employer yet but I have started counting down the days. Less than 4 months to go... can't wait to get out of here forever!!
 
Man I have 3 weeks left too. Cant wait to quit, tired of working a job I really dont want to do.

Good strategy!
 
Jealous!

Be prepared to have no life though.

Only kidding :laugh:
 
My last day is 6 days before school starts. Like a bear, I have to fatten up [my bank account] before hibernation. But I can't wait to drop that 2-week notice. Ka-boom!!! 👍
 
I told my employer about my future exit, and they offered me more hours! Woot woot! #Winning

congratulations!!!!

I remember giving my employer 1 month notice.... I actually had cold-feet quitting. Took me like 2+ months to finally build the courage and quit my career (software engineer).
 
My employer just found out I'm leaving tonight. I wasn't going to tell them yet, but someone asked me about graduation, and my manager was like, "so does that mean your leaving?" My last day will depend on when I move, but i'll probably make it July 31 even if I don't leave until mid-August. Give myself a little break.

I'm getting married about 2 weeks after I quit, have some trips planned, then livin off my sugar momma throughout dental school!
 
Counting down every last day... only 60 remain 😀
 
quitting day can not come any sooner! I wish I could quit now but Ill need the extra money. Unless someone wants to give me a couple thousand they have laying around?
 
My first day was 2 weeks ago and my last day will be 2 weeks from now. I started counting the days the day I was hired 😀, i have you all beat!

thats a pretty hot skillset in todays I.T market.... You can probably clear 100-120k easy if you were willing to relocate.

Wait... screw that.... dental profession > sitting infront of a PC screen

I know exactly what you mean. But the problem is i hate working under someone. I hate listing to stuff about how they want to make it work even after i propose a better solution.

I can earn more in Dental than i can ever earn in software field. It takes while to climb the ladder in that field + stability is not so good. working for a company where you cant make any difference or you dont matter is a pretty crappy thing.

It not much as sitting in front of a pc thing for me. than having the ability to make a change. For ex. the program that i am currently working on will be very useful for next 3-5 years then something new will come up. all the work i did goes in the recycle bin or vanishes into thin air. where as if i were in a medical or dental field i can see the difference that i am making in this world and to realize that my work do have meaning.
 
All I do all day at work is think about how excited i am to be done and to move on with life. Most of the time i am cruising around here looking for interesting stuff. oh well. I am sure in six months I am going to be wishing for some down time with nothing to do.
 
Since my job is work-study and I'm graduating next weekend, today is my last day! Kind of strange to think this could potentially be my last day of work for 4 years! :laugh:

👍 ...although in six months I will still be happier to be in dental school than at my dead end job where I have about 6 different bosses!

Corporate ladders suck! I have been on a couple and it was never a fulfilling job. I was definately happier when I was self employed. Delivering mail isn't to bad right now because I know there is an end in sight, plus it pays really well. I definitely couldn't see myself at that job for twenty years.

Last day august 12th
Gave notice january 5th
 
I just finished my last day of work yesterday!

It feels great to be done! 😎
