[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you should quiet quit. Getting laid off is better than quitting - you'd have an extra $150k!

So - accept that you'll be laid off. Stop worrying about it - it's not a bad scenario for you. Drop the rope on as many things as you can. People undermining you - fine. Don't have enough staff or resources to deliver well for your clients? Okay, you do the best you can reasonably do without a ton of stress, and you let it go. Lower your standards dramatically.

DO stick-up for your staff and try to protect them - not over the top, don't exhaust yourself on this, but if you can reasonably help protect people, do that. That's the one thing I would stay active on. And of course, remain courteous and professional in all your interactions with everyone.

Meanwhile, find three hours a week in your schedule (on or off the clock, whatever makes the most sense) to actively job search and network.

Maybe you get laid off, and you've got your time off to focus on your health and look for a job, but with $150k and a head start on the job search. Maybe you find another job (ideally). And maybe this becomes a reasonable status quo for a while that is at least no longer actively harming you. Feels like the best path at this point. [/quote]
This is exactly what I would do.[/quote]
