'I took off running and didn't come back': 30+ Times people quit their jobs ASAP

Sometimes you just have a feeling that you can't ignore. A sixth sense or a premonition will creep into your mind, and you decide to listen to your gut. Maybe you have a strange feeling about going on a date with someone new, or perhaps you get a chill down your spine and decide to take a different route home just based off your feelings. These people shared their stories of times they had a feeling that their jobs weren't going to work out, so they just quit. No need to go through months of training and networking just to end up miserable. Instead, these folks had the good sense to quit while they were ahead. 

The best time to leave a job is when you're just starting to dislike it. If you start job hunting by the time you despise going to your current job, it's too late. It's not always easy to leave your current job, especially if you don't have anything lined up, or if you feel very loyal to your bosses. You're doing yourself a favor by finding a place to work that values you. Everyone below knew their worth, and took off when their jobs treated them poorly. Check out all the great responses below, from people who left after a few months, to folks who threw in the towel after 15 minutes.
