Hit 1000 days on my current job tracker app and it made me think about quitting

I opened the app this morning and saw the number, which felt huge because I almost left this mail route after the first six months. That little digital pat on the back made me realize I've built up a ton of specific knowledge about this neighborhood that feels hard to walk away from. Has anyone else hit a random work milestone that made you pause about a career move?

My 5 year mark did the same thing.

Milestone watches don't fix a bad job.

Maybe it's just me but these anniversary posts always feel a bit over the top. Like, it's a nice round number so people make a huge deal. My buddy got a watch for his five year and acted like he won the lottery, but he was already looking for a new job a month later. Idk, maybe the milestone itself makes people think it's a bigger deal than it actually is.
