In this video,
I’m diving deep into the critical mistake IT professionals should avoid at all costs—burning bridges. Whether you're stuck in a dead-end job or ready to move on to a better opportunity, how you leave matters more than you think. I'll share my personal experience of quitting a job without notice, the lessons I learned the hard way, and why keeping those professional connections intact is essential for long-term career success. Plus, I’ll give you tips on how to leave on good terms and when burning a bridge might be unavoidable. Don’t make the same mistake I did—watch this video to learn why maintaining your reputation in IT is crucial. If you’ve ever burned a bridge or are thinking about it, drop a comment below—I want to hear your story!
