just have some questions

hi everyone

was wondering what are the clues and what have you people experienced to know it may be time to change jobs and what you could to try and hang on a little bit longer or until you have another plan or are ready to follow the plan.

have worked in hospitality for 13 years as most of you know and are starting to think about a change as its too hard now and its time to get out, not only that the place is for sale and theres a few intrested in buying it and planning to be out when it sells.

am wanting to do electrical test and tag and tv antenna installs and maybe other odd jobs and do the required training bit by bit.

at the local mens shed someone came and put a tv antenna up for the new lounge room that has recently been built and was likely originally going to get the job.

because of that its made me think about how much am wanting to follow the goal and/or get out of hospitality and do something interesting to get money.

at the moment am not in a position to follow the work goals as much as am wanting to get out the current job even doing it on side to start off with and dont own a house and it could be years given price of everything today and do at same time feel positive however nothing will happen overnight.

not only that the family that am likely to be able to think of cant really afford to do anything at moment.

what could you do to have the chances until you are able to get out of your job and be able to do that as with test and tag instead.

if the new owner wants to keep you on what is a professional way to explain that you will be happy to stay for a little while long enough to get you on track but unfortunately due to business/work goals that you wish to follow you dont plan to stay forever but you may stay to supplement it until you get too busy to stay, do you give heads up.

or do you just take offer if they would like to keep you if you havent found anything else and just give notice when you are actually ready to leave.

current job is ok at moment just find the food side hard now and also have work goals and wish to follow them at some point while am still able to and am just loyal to owners plus need the money.

as the place is for sale am getting a move on as much as possible as it could be like a auntys house and sell quick.

also just planning for future as hoping to make atleast 15 years hopefully little more but not expecting to make 20 and so far did the every weekend work 13 years.

a 65 year old co worker has retired recently making it harder for the others and it seems someone is always unable to work for different reasons and you feel like youre always getting called in and sometimes you just need a break and find it hard to say no.

and youre working nearly every day youre not at your voluntarily work and when you have days off theres that chance you may get called in and its increasing.

why do yous think the food industry has gotten harder in last 3 years and so many people left making it harder.

with shop for sale do yous think it will ever sell or is it up to you to do something and not wait around, it is sad but there comes a time you have to do it and unfortunately its time for the owner to do it and because of that have started planning as much as possible at a time now incase it sells quick and while am able to spread costs out in training as am going to have to do extra training

thanks
