I just got a job offer at a dream job of mine in a career I’ve worked at for YEARS to get into. But I’ve been working at this job I’m currently at for only three months and I’m the only person doing this job. I feel super bad for leaving (people pleaser in me) and leaving everyone high and dry but I can’t miss this opportunity.
I’d love some courage to be able to say something because it feels really hard to say “hey I found another job that’s better than here so I’m leaving”
The reason I’m not staying is for mental health reasons (I’m not sharing what in specifics please don’t ask) and also the place is understaffed and overworked. They’ve been trying to get a new hire in for 7 months and nothing.
Anyways I hate this conversation and idk how to approach it but I’d love to hear people’s experiences and get some courage.
