Breaking the News: Quitting When You're the Only Employee

Ever tried to quit a job where you’re basically the entire workforce? That’s me, working as the lone digital specialist and photographer at a small studio in Austin. After three years, I’m finally getting calls for jobs that could actually pay my bills, but the thought of handing in my notice has me sweating bullets. The owner took it hard when someone else left before, and now I’m worried she’ll take my resignation as a personal betrayal. It took almost a year for me to learn the ropes, so I know replacing me won’t be easy. But how do you put yourself first without feeling like the villain in someone else’s story? If you’ve ever been stuck between your own dreams and someone else’s expectations, you know exactly how I feel. Wish me luck—I’m going to need it! 😅📸 #CareerChange #SmallBusinessLife #WorkplaceDilemmas #JobCareer
