Over time you like going to work less and less. You're frustrated with boredom in your current role and you are having difficulty working with five of your co-workers. Your company isn't doing well and bonuses have been very low. You're so fed up you're going to quit. What is the best emotional intelligence response to this situation?

A.)Pause and consider the big picture. Think about whether your co-workers have similar feelings. Talk with your boss about the future of the company. Consider what it will mean for you professionally and personally if you quit and have no income.

B.) Continue with your idea to quit and move on to a more successful company and leave your co-worker frustrations behind. Have confidence that you are a good employee with significant potential to contribute in a new setting.

C.) Focus on improving your relationships with the five challenging co-workers. Improving those relationships will have significant positive impact on how you are feeling about the company and your work. D.)Talk with your boss about the financial condition of the company. Determine the future of the company and whether higher bonuses will be restored. Compensation is the most important employee motivator.
