To Hell With That Job! book cover
The idea this book is built on

Fifty prisoners. One race.

Picture a jail holding fifty people. Someone announces a race.

Forty-five of them run. Five refuse, and get mocked for refusing. Everyone knows only one can win, and yet all forty-five believe it will be them.

Eventually someone wins. He gets a medal. He does not get out.

The five who never ran spent that time looking for a way out of the jail. They are the ones who leave.

Your salary is the medal. The office is the jail. And the reason this feels uncomfortable to read is that you already knew it.

The reality

Nobody is pretending this is easy

If leaving were simple, you would have left already. Here is what actually holds people in place, and all of it is dealt with inside the book.

There is an EMI on the flat and the car

Walking out is not a plan. Building the thing that replaces the salary before you walk out is.

You do not know what your passion is

Most people do not. The book argues passion is not something you find lying around. It is something you build by exploring in a specific way.

Your family and your friends will have opinions

Social pressure is not a small thing in India and the book does not pretend otherwise.

You have only ever taken instructions

Fifteen years of being told what to do leaves a mark. Undoing it is a skill, and it can be learned.

You have never built anything of your own

Neither had he. Chapters ten through fourteen are what happened when he tried, including the parts that failed.

You are afraid it is already too late

He quit three jobs, including a government post people spend years trying to get, and started over.

What is inside

Fifteen chapters

It reads like a story, not a manual. It starts inside the cubicle and ends on the other side of it.

About the author

Vijeta Dahiya

He is not writing this from theory. He quit three jobs, including a government post, and rebuilt from nothing.

An engineer from Delhi College of Engineering who joined Ranbaxy Laboratories, then took a government post as an Assistant at the Ministry of External Affairs. The kind of job most people in this country are told to want.

He left it, moved to Mumbai with a camera and a film script, and spent years failing at auditions before working out that he wanted to make the work rather than perform in it.

Since then he has written and researched videos for Dhruv Rathee, Fukra Insaan, Coolmitra, Hypertroph and Sonu Sharma, written the feature film Dararein, the web series Opri Paraai and the short film Take Care, published two books, and won Quora's Top Writer laurel in 2021.

Chapters ten through fourteen of this book are that story, told without the parts usually left out.

FAQ

Before you buy

Is this going to tell me to quit my job tomorrow?

No. That advice is easy to give and expensive to follow. The book is about building the exit before you use it, which is slower and considerably more useful.

I do not know what my passion is. Is this book useless to me?

That is the reader it was written for. Chapter three deals with exactly this, and its argument is that not having found a passion is normal rather than a personal failing.

Hindi or English?

Both are included in one purchase. The audiobook is in Hindi.
