WSJ Your Money Briefing · Want to Leave Your Job? Here's What to Ask Yourself First. · 4 Aug 2021 podcast

I think sometimes people don't think hard enough and everyone needs to like take a beat and pause and really think this through. voice-verified

I mean, some of it is just that so many people paused during the pandemic, right? voice-verified

So in a way, the big numbers that we've seen, especially this spring of people quitting, some of that is just kind of like a wave that's crashing down because people were kind of frozen in place during the pandemic, right? voice-verified

I also think there's been a big perspective shift for a lot of people in this moment. voice-verified

You know, we've faced this big crisis and it kind of causes people to rethink, like, what am I doing with my life? voice-verified

What do I want to be doing? voice-verified

And in many cases, the answer is, I want to quit my job and try something new. voice-verified

This one really great professor told me about this concept of turnover shocks, which is there's often like something that pushes someone to resign. voice-verified

It could be a coworker leaving. voice-verified

It could be being passed over for a promotion. voice-verified

And he made the point that in this moment, we've all kind of gone through a turnover shock just because we've gone through this big collective experience. voice-verified

And like I was saying before, it kind of has changed the way we've thought about our lives. voice-verified

I mean, what I heard from experts over and over again was slow down. voice-verified

We often kind of overemphasize our current emotions. voice-verified

You know, we might think like, I totally don't want to go back to work. voice-verified

I'm going to be miserable. voice-verified

And maybe you will be. voice-verified

But what I heard from people is go back for two weeks. voice-verified

Try it out. voice-verified

If you hate it, you can quit. voice-verified
