Resigning from work. Elders nisaidieni...

[mswazi]

I quit my job 5 years ago when I realised I was never going to achieve my dream of becoming a birrionaire as an employee. I had started some side work before making that decision and as I look back, it was the best decision I ever made. Plan your exit well and when ready, go for it!

Bro, kazi shida kupata and you thinking of quiting. take my situation;

Am a supply management warehouse supervisor.and am multi tasking on different positions jobs;

apart from my day to day business of warehouse supervisor, am doing data entry, time sheets entry, inventory control entries, purchasing PR, receiving PO physically and in our materials handing system, supervising our chemicals yard & drilling yard, all these extras apart from my day to day warehouse business, there are employees for each task but they have all been dumped on me. i once wrote a strong mail to my boss about these other jobs requesting O.T. etc, and i’ve been turned down. the chemical & drilling yards are far away, i requested an extra labor to be the eyes of the chemical area and was turned down, was told, whether you want to work, keep quite or you can pack and go home, nilifunga mdomo wangu and continued.

this isn’t the time to think of quiting, have patience no matter what, time will come and you’ll come out better.

Wacha kuuzia mwenzako uoga. Kwani kila mtu anafanya kwa kampuni moja ndio ikae ni kama ukijitoa huwezi pata pa kuenda?

Pole boss…wah.
But o.p amefika point of no return…yeye ndiye anajua pahali inamfinya…yeye amefika breakpoint wewe bado unaweza skuma.
Akiendelea ku skuma anaweza haribu vitu huko o.p ndio aende hasara.
O.p is pulling out hairs because of frustration…i can totally relate…like an elder has said msipate ulcers ju ya ofisi ya mtu.

Yeah i got him, its ok, i wish him the best in whatever decision he makes.

hakuna uoga namuuzia, nasema what am experiencing. what he does is his, not for myself or you, i wish him the best in his decision.

I resigned from a well paying job just before the corona pandemic last year feb… long story short sahi my main source of income ni betting. The good thing is that i decided to go back to university to complete my degree and i hope soon things itafunguka. Unless you have like two million in your account, don’t resigned from that job. It is better utafute another job for the time being

Why specifically 2 million? Why not 1.5m or 3 m? Or even 1.999m? Suppose uchujwe na huna hio 2m what do you do? Kill yourself?

@Lonely Lover

Theres your answer.

Wanted to do the same but eventually opted not to.
Why?

1. When your out here and making money already…why go back to school?
   Unless its for prestige…personally im syking to enroll for a theology course…not because i want to join thr clergy but i owe it to myself to learn more about The Most High.
   Or unless you set up a firm offering proffesional services…i honestly dont see the need for school.
   Labda ka short course ya something your interested in.
2. When your out here you can learn more by volunteering around and bonding with retirees and working with the active ones…youl learn more that way in my humble opinion…shule ni theory mtupu, go out there and do stuff…umeona thread ya mtunguyaz huko mtwapa!?..thats how you learn.
   But elders advice hapo juu iko sawa…ngoja 2022.
   Good luck & God bless you.

True.Some lecturer who taught us cyber security used to really insist on one going back to school for masters.My classmates who did CIM only after graduation have big sales and marketing jobs in tech companies buana

If you have plan two million is enough, my plan was to import sugar from Uganda, hata nilipata importation authority letter but after kupata hiyo barua the govt ikaamua kusimamisha all sugar importation.

Niaje wadau. I have been pondering about resigning for a while now.

I have realized there are glaring disparities in pay scales. i.e. two people with same job description, but you’ll find one earns thrice or even more. The same goes for junior officers. Someone very green, we ndo unamtrain job yet at the end of the day they bag more than you.

And I’ve also come to understand that no one cares about work deliverables. As long as hukuletwa na who is who, what you can achieve, or bring to the table doesn’t matter. You will remain a bottom of the barrel employee, while others take accolades for your sweat. It is serously depressing at times.

I have been saving some few coins and I’m sure by end of May 2022, nitakua place interest ya hizo savings zitaweza nilipia rent + a few minor expenses without touching the principal.

I’m also wondering whether i hold on nione post election atmosphere in 2022 before I make my move.

Who has ever dared to quit from employment, and venture into the unknown? All factors considered, do you regret?

This issue is taking a toll on my mental health.

Contemplating the same. Mimi job hata hakuna wasiwasi and my pay is above several workmates but that doesn’t matter to me. I however feel my time for employment should be over soon and should venture into farming. The step is not the easiest to take but I somehow MUST

Hapo kwa theology umenifurahisha. I actually want to serve God more but my employment ties me down. (not many here will understand this though)

@magreb

Two options from someone who has resigned four times the fourth being kwenda kuhustle:-
[ol]
[li]Stay put but don’t kill yourself with work. Fanya ile kazi umeandikwa. Pia wewe anza kuregarega kama kila mtu uache iende vile itaenda. Some of us have this saviour mentality where we feel that if something is not being done then you have to do something. The extra effort you have been putting Into the job direct it at your side hustles;[/li][li]Quit and start working for yourself. That way, you will take all the responsibility for the success or failure of your hustle. It really helps to have something to keep you going for at least six months.[/li][/ol]

Hapo umeongea Kama wazito kumi pewa mbili kwa bill yako

Tafuta side hustle and divert your hard work there utafaidikia huko nje

You already are…your just yearning to do more.
Your on the right path.
God bless and good luck.

Ulikula 750K simping for a yerro yerro mountaneer. Hiyo pesa ungepeana nyumbani usaidiane. Na usiseme waki sawa. There’re always better things to do than simping.
