I haven't been very happy with my job and considered changing it but I was too comfy and didn't know how to put it to an end. The company has developed in a way I don't find myself fit anymore and I struggle everyday with the shit they ask us to do. But today something nice happened, today we had a visit from one of top managers( which I don't like at all and had a plan to stop eating shit) so we had a bit of an argument for various reasons, but that wasn't the point.
Anyway, after all was done, the manager kept me and the other sales guy ( we are the oldest here ) and gave us "last chance", we either do the new imposed target by the end of the year or we're off the hook.
I felt so relieved, because it came naturally, I don't have the slightest intention to reach the target, because I don't give a fuck about them anymore. I will continue working and guiding my existing customers, but that's pretty much it.
Time to change the disc, gonna try and get out of this sales stuff from now on and re-orientate to something else.
Cheers!

Well, I already do something else which I want to develop even more, I'm a project manager on the website that used to be in my signature, I also do private Photoshop work with car related stuff.
I plan to open a custom singlespeed/fixed gear bikes shop - already built 4 bikes for customers so far, with 5th bike in the works now - I've created the brand image, waiting for the website to be finished these days so I can launch it.

You already told me about your plans some time ago.
Good that you finally decided to execute the first part of it.
Good luck my nigga!

The same thing happened with me during my first job, when they promoted a moron instead of me. I stopped giving a shit, started looking for different opportunities and eventually found something much better. I think I changed five jobs in the last six years, best thing I did. I eventually realized I accepted shitty jobs because I felt comfortable, leaving your job is quite scary IMO. Being able to say "FU, bye" feels very good.
Hopefully things will work out for you too.

@Mister_s
What did your employers say when they saw you basically change your job every year?

what do they need to say, what it tells them is if they want to keep him they better treat him well or he goes work for someone that does, fuck what employers think, when u a good employee, they better kiss your ass

I told I wanted a steady job and clear future possibilities. I basically said "my motivation wil lower after six months and I'll stop caring within a year if I don't see any improvement after I start here". After my nth job interview, I just started telling shit like it was. The biggest problem when looking for a job is fear, that's what I learned the hard way. Employers can sense that fear and they gladly make use of it if they are dicks. All of us need money, but I'd rather work for less and be comfortable and be myself.
