Thinking of quitting my job

Hi guys

It's been a while since I posted here kay mibalhin na ko sa Manila. But sometimes I still troll especially sa photography forums.

Anyway here's the thing. I have a job as a graphic artist. It doesn't pay as well, but I'm happy with the job. But lately, I learned of certain practices that I really think are unfair for employees. For example, we don't have holidays. No work means no pay and even if we work on holidays, we don't get paid extra. We don't have paid sick leaves or paid vacation leaves. We do not receive any benefits, like Philhealth, Pag-Ibig and SSS, and our boss says it's coz if they deduct that from our salaries, we would get even lower pay and it would be best if what is given to us is the net pay, and that if we want to get those benefits, we should just personally apply for those benefits on our own without the company involvement (which I think are major red flags already).


This is my 2nd graphic artist job, the first one being one that provided benefits (quit because it wasn't really in line with my career path). So my question is, is this normal practice for small businesses requiring graphic artists? Because honestly, I'm about ready to quit. I've been in the company for 7 months and I don't think I can last another month.

Any advice? Should I jump ship even though I don't have another job lined up yet? (my hubby can support me just fine; we don't have kids yet and i'm not yet in my 30s). Salamat in advance sa feedback

Quit. But before you do that, report these bastards to DOLE.

Okay raman mo quit / resign... basta hinog na ang panahon. Kung sa atong pagtan-aw, right time na, then mamutos nata.

Sakto sila TS, quit when the timing is right. Pangita usa lain nga kabalhinan usa quit ani na company. Kay lose-lose situation gyud if mo quit ka nya wala paka lain nga source sa imo income.
