What do you do when you don’t feel valued by your job when you’re doing really good work? Taylor can help you with that.

 

"Nobody respects you unless you're willing to leave. If [employers] get the sense that you're not willing to leave and you bluff it even once, they'll call your bluff. If you say, 'I'm gonna quit, give me this or I'll quit,' you have to be 110% willing to quit… But if you just let them walk all over you, then they'll never respect you because they'll know that they can get anything that they want."
