Brave decision quitting before you lined something else up!

But on the other hand, jobs are very easy to come by if you really want one!

That's the thing m8, I was hoping to get promoted here, but It doesn't look like it's going to happen, despite everyone company wide minus a few individuals knowing I can do the job standing on my head

It's scarey stuff, but i am sure you will be fine, the time will fly by so get searching for a job now as it's easier to get a job whilst your still employed

I did this a while back, and it is definitely easier to get another job when you're already employed. And it was pretty horrible at the time but then I got a job that was so much better than the old one that it all turned out for the best in the end. I don't think I'd do it that way again, but it forced me to do something because my life was basically a pile of poo in my old job.

So good luck with it mate, I know how it gets you when you're not happy in your job. I'm sure the right one's out there for you.

In fact, I'm thinking about moving on again now.
