Ask HN: Should I Quit the Job?

I have been working as customer service representative for over 7 years; recently I got promoted to team lead, however I am not feeling like leading team as I don't like office bureaucracy and politics. Some of team members are toxic, including manager.

How should I handle?

Should I quit the job?

You gave us some good insight to how you are feeling, but we should also consider what your needs are from a job.

Do you know what you would do for money if you quit? Do you want to be a customer service representative somewhere else, or are you considering a career change?

If you're the breadwinner, it's complicated, and you'll have to think hard about your options.

If not, I'd start looking.
