If your job has truly become unbearable, then you have no choice. But even in this situation it’s important to try to stay as cool as possible, however difficult it may seem, because you can still use the situation to your advantage. Many people find that just making the decision to leave makes their position much easier, allowing them to begin formulating some kind of plan for the future.
The aspects of your job that are getting you down are often a lot easier to live with when you know they’re not going to last much longer. Above all, don’t waste your energies lashing out at the people or things that are making your job impossible. Instead, try to channel your exasperation with the situation into a positive plan for getting out of it and making your next step.
