Would you burn bridges and quit your job for 10k?

Rent alone is 1000-1500 in a beautiful city. Youd run dry in a couple of months.

Maybe if you didnt pay anything, it be worth a lot.

[smokerob79]

if we are burning bridges why would there be apartment blocks left???......the apartment blocks are the first thing i would burn down as it forces the poor people to do something at their expense.....

[White Knight]

I've done that for a hell of a lot less.

If I burned my bridges I'd lose everything and destroy all my relationships so I guess not

[Dominic]

well I would. The people at my job are nice but that is some pretty good money.

[Monnsteri]

Done it before, would do it again.

[Abaddon the Despoiler]

At 21 I burned my bridges, left my job and left home to spend 7 years on the streets. 10k would have been useful at the time.

[𝕺𝖌𝖗𝖎𝖒]

Teslas maybe

[Tonepoet]

Nah. If I'm doing either of those things, I'm doing it for free anyway because it just ain't working out for me. I mean maybe you could persuade me to quit a job for money if money was the sole reason I was working the job, but I would have to know I am financially secure otherwise, so either it would have to be more than 10k or I'd be looking for another job.

Can't say 10 grand would be a nice bonus though.

It must have been difficult, but that sounds like incredible resilience.

[MinionJoe]

Nah. I'd just work for a couple of months to earn $10k and I'd still have a bridge and a job.

What bridges?
You mean the relationship with the employer, and potential recommendation?
By like... leaving without notice?

In my experience in the workforce, in the USA, without unions, and without someone to actually enforce workplace regulations, and no way to hold the employer accountable for false write-ups that their own surveillance footage should contradict...
(And also never managing to get a job that pays 10k within half a year's work.)

The incineration of the bridge is almost always an imminent inevitability anyways.

So, I'd take 10k to leave almost any job that I might ever work.

[kbiz]

No. Don't burn bridges for a nickel.

[salamander]

depends on the currency, i guess. 10k lari? hell no, 10k euro? yeah, maybe.

[Reddari]

If there is nothing else involved than just 10k, then no.

[Emurinus]

Just 10k? If that's all then it's not worth it.
