Hi all, I know this has been thrown out there in the past, but I thought I'd make a poll for 2012 applicants. When do you expect to leave your job and why is that good timing for you? I don't know where I'm going yet, but I DO know Friday, May 4th @ 5:30pm PST will be my last minute

Probably mid-July, but it depends on whether I have to move and how far...

I REALLY wanted to stop working at the beginning of May, but I ran the hard numbers and would feel more comfortable financially if I worked a little longer. So it looks like Friday, June 1, will be my last day of work. Thankfully, at my company, that really translates into a half day!!!! Looking forward to having a month to enjoy doing only what I want to do! I figure July will be my month to pack and relocate, so that really doesn't count.

I'm leaving on June 15 (half day Fridays!!). I'm counting the weeks, days, hours, minutes, and seconds til that glorious day arrives. I need to work through the end of May to get my bonus, I tacked on an additional 2 weeks to have a full paycheck without the burden of major bills to pay (lease is up in May so no utilities, rent, cable, internet, etc.). I might even have 2 weeks of vacation left to burn by 6/15 so hopefully that will give me one more check at the end of June (without actually having to work). Bonus + 1 month salary = very fun summer w/o having to touch what I already saved for school. Relaxing in June, traveling in July, moving to school in August.
