The reason for leaving differs in every situation, but every decision to move from a position has some version of compensation involved. Compensation can be seen as a reason why someone may leave a current position for another. As mentioned in lecture outline Compensation, compensation has two components: extrinsic and intrinsic rewards. Extrinsic rewards can include the tangible, monetary and nonmonetary effects of compensation. Intrinsic rewards can include the intangible, psychological and social effects of compensation (Cieri 2025).<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"260\" height=\"201\" src=\"https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/8677\/files\/2025\/05\/Burgerville2C_USA_28logo29.png\" alt=\"Burgerville - Wikipedia\" class=\"wp-image-23\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>My first job was working as a crew member at a Burgerville location during my last year of high school. I started in the summer leading into my senior year and lasted until the first month of the following year. In all, I started August 2020 and left January 2021 lasting a total of 5 months. Personally, I left for a multitude of reasons. My justification for leaving relied on intrinsic rewards. At the time, I was stressed with handling a job and school at the same time. I knew eventually I wanted to leave my job so I could focus on scholarship applications for my upcoming first year in university. After I submitted my two weeks notice letter, I felt a great sense of relief. I could feel the psychological intrinsic reward already. My mood was brighter because psychologically, I knew I was going to feel free soon. After my two weeks were up, I felt relieved and stress free. My psyche was excited I didn&#8217;t have to deal with that job anymore and I felt happier. To sum up my reward for leaving my Burgerville job, I felt an intrinsic reward of peace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Source:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cieri, M. (2025, May 19th.)
