Quitting jobs.

I've quitted jobs without letting my employer that I was unhappy or disgruntled. In retrospect I should have let them know before I jumped ship; mainly because the grass is rarely greener on the other side and some of them could have changed.

I wouldn't regret that. Your career is your own responsibility and nobody else's. It's unlikely your past employers would have tried to retain you if you told them you were unhappy or disgruntled--at least I've never seen it happen. I've found through many jobs: if you think leaving is the right decision, it is.

I think it is unlikely that an organization would change for you (or anyone), so there is not much to regret.

I guess one could try to create one's dream job within one company, but it would be a long and ongoing fight, not just a matter of talking with the boss.
