Quitting a 9-5 job without a back up plan at age 25…was it a good decision?Our *UNFILTERED* story.
Hey guys!
Here's another unfiltered podcast-style video about one of our craziest decisions in our lives....to quit or not to quit.
Even after not working for corporate, we are still figuring things out along the way (as we figure out LIFE in general), but we think it was a good decision--Although we prepared a lot for this big move!
It has been the most DAUNTING thing we've done in our lives, but perhaps the most humbling. In this podcast-style video, you can also listen to our advice on what to do BEFOREHAND if you're thinking to quit your job.... because we cannot quit anything so whimsically right?!
Since this is an unedited video, please use the below time stamp to follow our conversation! :)

ME already waiting for something similar is out soon. love this video❤️
I enjoyed your video! I also quite my job last month. I didn’t really have a side hustle like you guys did, but like you said I was more scared to stay at the company than quitting lol Anyway, I found a job I was interested in and it starts next month. I’ll see what’s gonna happen next👻 I hope you guys enjoy your time and make lovely contents like this more💛

Omg thank u for ur comment! I’m glad u enjoyed it !! Ya it must’ve been a hard decision and u need lots of courage!!! :)) congrats and lets keep on chasing what we are really meant to do in this world!!💕💕💕💕💕 rooting for u!!!❣️❣️❣️
今回も楽しかった！。聞き流しには最高です。大筋は理解出来ましたが個人的には細かなニュアンスが難しかったです。特に二人が大笑いする幾つかの場面は置いてかれました。 結局のところYou only live once. ってことがポイントでよろしかったでしょうか笑 次回も楽しみにしてます😊

hi misa! again great video, i'm also contemplating quitting my job but too scared to make the plunge. Just wondering how did you graduate college at age 20? Did you skip some grades or start school young? Was it hard to start working in the jpn industry at just age 21?

Thank u! Ya I graduated college earlier because I had all of my credits and I was able to :) I planned that since my freshman year of college actually! Ya it was hard because I didn’t know many things but it was a great advantage for me since I was the youngest in the company!
このシリーズ楽しみにしてました♡ わたしもみさちゃんと同い年？ですが転職経験があります。 2人のお話や考えを聞いてると元気が出ます！ 次のvideoたのしみにしてます❤❤❤

This is a little difficult for me, as I can only score about 800 on the TOEIC😂 As I continue to work at what I thought was a boring job, I'm being given more and more work that I like, and I'm beginning to think that big companies aren't so bad either. Everyone has different values, and I hope everyone can live a life that suits them😇😇😇

Yesyes!!!! This is just our point of view :) Everyone is very different! :))
How much was your salary
転職は悩みますよね。私は今のお二人と同じ年頃に何度も転職しましたが毎回悩みましたよ。今は50代後半ですが、大学を卒業して最初に勤めた会社から今までに8回も転職しました。勤めた会社はどれも小さい会社だったので、仕事が自分に合わないからと言っても同じ会社の中で部署を変えてもらうこともできなかったので、会社を辞めて他の会社に移るしかなかったんです。もう一つの理由として、転職しないと年収が上がらないということもあります。私が勤めた8番目の会社には17年以上いたので、在職中はもうこれ以上転職することはないと思ってましたが、今年の3月に他の会社からオファーをいただき、8回目(9社目)の転職を果たしました。自分の今の年齢を考えると、もうこれが本当に最後の会社になると思います。本当はそろそろretireしたいのに！😂 でもまだ5〜6年は働いて老後の生活費を貯めないと😩 転職は悩みますが、動画の中でお二人が言っていたように人生は一度きりなので、納得できる仕事が見つかるまで転職してNo Problemo！ですよ😊 ちなみに、自分は今まで転職する際は必ず次の転職先の会社からオファーをもらってから今の会社を辞めるようにしてました。既に次の仕事が決まっていると言うと、今の会社は引き留められませんからね。Good Luck to you two🤞
