Five tell-tale signs it might be time for a new job
Deciding that the time is right for a new job can be a life-changing experience. The grass always seems greener on the other side, but is this simply a reaction to a bad day at the office or a sure sign you need to move on? 
If your current job is okay, you like your colleagues and the pay is reasonable, it can be hard to make a break. 
To help you decide, here are five signs that show when it really is time for a change.
1.    You don’t like Mondays

The end of a great weekend is always a bit of a downer. That’s totally normal. But if you regularly experience fear and loathing at the sound of Antiques Roadshow on a Sunday evening, you’ve a bad case of the “Sunday Night Blues”. It doesn’t have to be this way.

2.    You’re stuck in a rut

Think of yourself as an X Factor wannabe. Your career should be a journey to bigger and better things, not a constant loop. Even if you’re doing a job you enjoy, you also need satisfaction from adding to your skill set. If you haven’t developed or learned anything new for a while, it’s time for a fresh challenge.

3.    You don’t get on with your boss

Unfortunately, many people don’t leave their companies, they leave their boss. A bad relationship with a manager can really affect your day-to-day work and seep into the rest of your life. If you’ve tried and failed to fix the situation, your energy would be better spent looking for a new job.

4.    It’s a mismatch

Like good relationships, the best jobs tap into our full potential and bring out the best in us. If there is no overlap between what we’re good at and love doing and what our actual job involves on a daily basis, nobody is happy.

5.    Money’s too tight to mention

Let’s not be shy. One of the big motivators for moving up the career ladder is salary. If you’re struggling to make ends meet and money is always on your mind, it’s time to look at opportunities where your work will be more handsomely rewarded.
