I stayed at a company I hated for too long because it was safe - I was literally the only person who could fix the legacy system that was responsible for half of the company.

After I left, I realised how much of a negative effect the company was having on me. I had coworkers point it out and say they were sad about it but I never realised it myself until after I left and realised the difference just in my dreams nevermind all the other stuff.
