‘It felt amazing to just waltz out’: Hair salon employee quits underpaying job on the spot after successfully securing a better job, manager desperately tries to get him back, employee stands his ground

When people reach their breaking point, there is not much that can deter them from saying 'enough is enough'. It can be regarded in many situations in life, but we've all had that moment where we simply cannot put up with the same thing over and over again, and we understand that we have to start standing up for ourselves and for what we want.

What can we do when we reach that breaking point? The easy answer is - we need to start making a change, or at least start taking steps towards a change, big or small. If you feel like you are stuck in a bad relationship, start coming up with break-up strategies. If you are unhappy with your living situation, start looking up alternatives. If you don't enjoy what you do for work, start looking for a better job.

Always remember – The only thing stopping you is yourself, and the sky is the limit. The story down below might also inspire you to actively try and make a change in your life, it definitely did for me.
