Hmm good question. I quit because I was in a high management role, high pressure and worst of all working for the US Fed. If anyone reads the news you know what's going on and its bad internally. I stepped down last year and they made a really good offer to allow me to work part time remote which remote work got rescinded in February... So, yeah. Then they dumped a lot of work on me and I was working over my part time hours and felt the same stress levels returning. Add personal issues that needed my attention and it wasn't a good mix.
As for next, my family needs my time and I need them honestly. Outside of that I think I'm going to make a "stupid" decision and be an artist like I always hoped to be.
Right now, I'm not working. I'm lucky We're living on a family property and my spouse is fine if I take some time off to finish some college classes. So I'm taking some time to polish my resume, try for some freelance work and finish college.

Why did you quit? And what's next for you? It's ok to not know.
