This is the end...

This is the end of my career in the most international company.

Never thought I would speak out these words so soon. But it was inevitable. The last 2,3 months were very hard. On the one hand I became more and more aware that the logistics business was complex and customers very demanding. On the other hand I realized that I was not happy within this domain.


Finally I sat down with the HR business partner. We had a long conversation and came to a mutual agreement. No regrets, no hard feelings. It was a fantastic experience but not my passion.

So the best thing to do is to quit. But how to quit in a smart way?










Hereby 8 smart Tips for quitting your job


Deciding to leave a job isn't easy. It can be difficult to figure out if leaving is right for you, your family and your career. Quitting is often tied to general unhappiness or an inability to move up within a company, which can spur anger and spawn impulsiveness to quit on the spot. However, there are smarter and better ways to end a professional relationship. 


Do a quick audit

Make a short pro's and con's list about what you like and don't like about the job. Make sure you learn something from the experience to make sure you make the right choices moving forward.
Be direct but diplomatic
Be direct and honest about your unhappiness, but stay away from criticism. This change is ultimately about you, not them. Remain positive and move on.

Be prepared


Review all the documents you signed when you took the job you are leaving," Aulph said. "Make sure you did not agree to noncompete or nonsolicitation clauses. You wouldn't want anything to jeopardize your future


Never burn a bridge


Even if you are unhappy with your current work situation, it's best to frame the situation as, "It's not you, it's me - you never know when you may cross paths with someone again professionally, so you always want to leave a work relationship, even a negative one, on the best terms possible. 


Don't slack off


Continue to do your job until you exit the company," Attard said. "Step up your game, and perform like never before. Leave no doubt in their mind that you are an exceptional employee." 


Tell direct boss first

If an employee is close friends with his or her boss, the boss may feel slighted and blindsided by the sudden act of resigning. In that case, it may make more sense for an employee to inform the boss of their intention to resign well before formal notice of the resignation is provided to the organization."


Give compliments


Always start with the positive that compliments your present employer," Lamb said. "There's always something positive that can be said, like 'X company provided a very valuable learning environment.


Leave the baggage at the door

If it's been a rough road, try to allow time between transitions so you can start your new role with a fresh outlook and clean slate, ready to dive in.
