[Andy Black]

In this episode we chat about quitting jobs and contracts properly.

In particular:

• Quitting a job to get another job.
• How it's a small world.
• Things to consider before quitting a job to start your own thing.

Curious what your takeaways are.

Great episode and thank you for your value!

Edit: My biggest takeaway is that professionality is important. Also, it is also possible to quit the job as soon as the essential liabilities are covered by the business gains.

Great episode @Andy Black, really liked it, as well as the intro and outro.

My takeaways:

• It pays to get along.
• Be professional on the way out. They may hire you again, even from another company, or become your customer.
• Get examples of the work you did there, your references.
• If you want to stop working with a client, do it in a way that doesn't make them feel bad about it, help them move on.
• You can quit as soon as you get to x1.

This episode really spoke to me as my experience is similar. I've actually always been like that. Helpful on the way out, or even after not working somewhere anymore. Always looked for a win-win and striving for fair-play.

I've asked for reference letters and recommendations and got them every time I asked.

Even in college, and I definitely wasn't the best student. By far

But I was respectful, attentive at classes etc. Nearing graduation, I asked two professors for letters of recommendation, and got it from both. Helped in getting my first well paid job straight out of college.

A small off-topic: I would also recommend to read the chapter 92 of MJ's The Great Rat-Race Escape prior to quitting a job. What do you think about it?
