Tangentially, when COVID-19 forced my company to go work from home it thrust in to my face all the things that about that company that made me hate my job and gave me anxiety attacks.

I ultimately quit that job with nothing lined up and found a much more fulfilling job, with better pay. I don't think I would have quit that last job if it wasn't for the disruption, and I would have still been miserable.

The main thing we had to adjust to at my work during that period was understanding just how many decisions were being without all the stakeholders present.

I had a good two months where every day felt like being a chef who was asked how the banquet preparations were going, without anyone having ever informed me there was even a banquet scheduled.

"Oh, we had an hour long call the other day about that. Didn't figure out needed to be in on it"

Congrats on taking that decision. I bet it felt empowering.

I'm very tempted to do the same, tomorrow morning possibly. I only stuck out my job for so long because it was fully remote before the pandemic and that was hard to find.

Now actually feels like a good time to switch with so many companies forced into remote working and stating they will stick with it.

What kind of things did you hate about your job? Did you face many questions about quitting with nothing lined up?

Sounds like you should do it ;)
