The reason why I left was because after 4 years of daily verbal abuse, I couldn't take it anymore. I tried the nice approach, I tried closing the office door, I tried diplomacy, and every written advice given by so called career specialists, but none of them worked. My family convinced me to leave for the sake of my sanity and health. No job is worth dying over. As a matter of fact, I know of many people who stayed at a job, miserable for the sake of providing latest expensive items to keep up with the times, and they each died before retirement! Not to mention the 3 co-workers who died from the employment I just left (2 from cancer and 1 from overdosing on alcohol). They were quickly forgotten as soon as their replacements came. Employers don't give a damn about you but themselves and their profit. They could care less about how the environment affects you and life is too short to die over a jackA**. If people work for a company that makes them happy, then that's wonderful and great, and worth staying. BUT, if a person works for a company that brings them down all the them, and expects the abused employee to treat their abuse as a challenge, then there is something wrong with that picture.

When I quit my job I had several coworkers and friends who were fearful for me, some who were envious and some who thought I was an idiot. ALL of them were responding, in some sense, to that part of themselves that would like to do the same thing. When we quit our jobs it made them face the reality of their own situations, hence the different reactions.

Stuff the arrogance- the same as you would like respect for choosing the path of self-employment, give respect for the people who choose to stay regularly employed. You're doing something risky, and should not look down on people for choosing not to take those same risks. They are typically staying there for the sake of their families.
