Korean lore: Traditionally, tearing up or getting rid of documents has sometimes been interpreted as cutting off a promise or plan. Alongside leaving a job, it may be seen as withdrawing your decision about change, or instead as wanting to end an old relationship. (In folk dream interpretation, paper and documents often symbolize promises or decisions, while tearing them is commonly read as a flow of separation or cancellation.)
Through the mind: You may be wavering because of your livelihood, career, or the expectations of those around you, even though you want to leave your job.
