If you91ÂãÁÄÊÓƵ™ve been considering quitting your job, today could be the day, at least that91ÂãÁÄÊÓƵ™s what statistics from the United Kingdom propose.

According to a survey by Glassdoor, January is the month most likely to see job changes, while other UK reports note Jan. 31 is the most likely day for people to quit their jobs.

This can be because the new year brings a sense of change; top that with dreary weather, compounding holiday debt and a desire to fulfill an ambitious new year91ÂãÁÄÊÓƵ™s resolution and it91ÂãÁÄÊÓƵ™s the perfect recipe for resignation.

According to the report, the most motivating factors to quit include having a low salary, a bad relationship with a boss or colleagues, a lack of career progression, work stress and lengthy commute times.

Anyone who doesn91ÂãÁÄÊÓƵ™t bite the bullet today might be amused by another UK statistic. On the first Monday in February people are likely to call in sick to attend interviews.
