quit your job: escape to a new life

Here we will record your blog as you describe your journey to a ttjasi: let us share as you quit your job. You will get the support of our advice and encouragement, and we can draw some inspiration in return.

You can ask to have your very own personal blog on ttjasi.com or you can tell us where you already have a blog. All we ask is that the blog actually be about quitting your job. Contact ttjasi now and ask for a blog or tell us your blog details. No automated stuff: deal with a real person!

Too often when we leave a job, we rush into another without taking a break.

If you take a breather, you will start the next job with renewed energy, instead of dragging yourself along on day one in recovery mode.
