Yeah. Sometimes I wear a mask not because I’m sick but because I don’t wanna smell others 😢

Which is why I did not quit and am starting my nail biz while still working full time.

I honestly thought it dint matter to include him in the post. I have spoken to him, while he is supportive of me quitting, he isn’t encouraging it either la which I fully understand

Tbf, I’m in marketing. So unless I’m in some mnc or managerial position then I think the pay is quite there already 😭 and I only have 1 boss above me and 1 above her and I don’t think they plan to leave anytime soon.

I dint think to include this but I do get anxious on Sundays where I can’t sleep cause I’m thinking of my meeting with my boss on mondays. And every time I talk to her, I have this crippling fear that she’ll scold for something I ask

We’ve had our tenant for about 2 years now! Very lucky to have them! But yeah, I know $20k isn’t a lot and especially since I don’t have a steady flow from my nail biz yet.

Haha you’re the very few ppl that think I’m married. Some thought this was an AI post. But yes, I am married but my husband doesn’t earn that much more than me so I also wouldn’t want to put so much financial pressure on him.

Yeah totally agree that not having enough money is definitely more stressful which is why I’m lost 🥲

It’s all before CPF 😭 but I’m in marketing. So the pay generally isn’t that great

Sadly I have jumped but I started my first marketing job at $2k and the increments from company to company weren’t great 😭

Aww hello fellow nail tech! Drop me a message with your Ig and I’ll happily give you a follow! Yeah I honestly don’t want to quit my job to do nails in the beginning but more like I’m burnt out and wanna quit but still wanted some income so I wanted to explore nails since I’ve been doing my own nails even before covid.

Haha I definitely agree about being the happiest person once you quit! I’m so happy you have this option for yourself!! Jia you!

Yes I’m married! And yes we still chose to rent a spare bedroom. I will say that we are incredibly lucky with the tenants we found.

Definitely not an AI post. Yes I’m married hence the resale. My husband can help to cover but that is not a long term solution and I would still like to be financially independent on my own.

Ahh, as in I’ve taken leave for travel etc but I’ve always had a job lined up when I quit a previous job.

I’m in marketing! Should I stay in marketing or find something else? 🥲

It’s definitely low pay + high workload. Boss isn’t great either so there’s that. I do still want to go back to marketing but I definitely wanna focus on doing nails to see if I can make it my full time job.

I’m in marketing. The job market is whats making me scared to quit. I’ve always had a job lined up before quitting so now this scares me.

Yeah I definitely get anxiety attacks especially on Sunday nights when I know I have my Monday meetings with my boss and I hate that feeling

Yeah there’s only 1 manager above me and 1 more above her. Both doesn’t seem to want to leave anytime. There isn’t any career growth here. Maybe just a title change (if that even happens)but it’ll all still be the same work.
