Leaving a job in Kenya can be stressful for anyone, whether you're pursuing another opportunity or leaving for personal reasons. But, taking the right steps when you quit can make the transition from one job to another smoother for both you, your career, and your employer.

Here are three real-life scenarios where individuals left their jobs in less than ideal conditions. How do you
think they could have handled the situation better? We'll provide you with tips on how to effectively handle quitting a job in part 2 of this series.

Leaving without a plan. James felt stuck in his job working for a Kenyan firm owned by foreigner and had been searching for something else for months but to no avail. He didn't enjoy his work, received little help from his co-workers, and was stressed to the max.

After being away from the office for a few days due to a family emergency, he called in on the day he was to return and gave his notice. He decided not to go back to work but didn't have any interviews lined up either.

He's still struggling to find a job months later, and he's running out of money.

Jumping ship without notice. Jessie worked for an acquaintance for several years in a position with no room for advancement. When she found another opportunity that provided benefits, better pay, and career potential, she jumped at the chance. But as a conflict-avoider, she didn't want to face her boss and tell him she was quitting.

So, she simply never returned to work and ignored his phone calls. She already had another job and wasn't worried about it.

Quitting out of anger. Antony was a strong performer at work, constantly completing projects early, helping others with their work, and moving up within the company. But he had a hot temper, and one day, a co-worker made a remark about his work that offended Antony, who didn't give his co-worker the opportunity to clarify the comment.

An argument began and quickly escalated. Antony was so angry he collected his things, told his supervisor he quit, and walked out the door.

Have you left a job in one of these ways? If so, what happened? How has it affected you or your job search? Did you jeopardize your career, ruin your chances at another opportunity, or lose a reference? Let us know in the comments section below
