Oh man. Quitting a job that doesn't respect you is terrifying, but feels so good. Like leaving any abusive relationship. I'm lucky that I work for a pretty progressive group, and they treat me very well, and I have a lot of fun with my colleagues. Congrats for realizing that value in yourself and not taking a bunch of garbage for a paycheck. It's unfortunate that more people aren't able to walk away from things like that.

One of my ex-bosses used to say:
I'm happy that you're in such a balanced situation. Mine is very similar.
Many people don't have the chance to change their lives from one moment to the next. If you have a family, for instance, and don't just need to feed yourself, you have to act very carefully. Quitting a job can be a financial risk, and a lot of people can't afford that.
