Last week I was at my breaking point with my job. I made the decision that I was going to have to change my attitude, because my health and relationships were being affected, or I was going to have to look for other work. I did really well this week. I accomplished a lot even though my phone was turned off at the end of the workday, and I did not do any work at home. In fact, I beat my husband home from work once this week (that has not happened in forever.) I decided that I love my job and if I could change my attitude that maybe I could keep my job and be okay. Well, yesterday I made the decision it is time to look for a new work. My supervisor announced that she was leaving our organization. That alone was upsetting, but then it was announced that I would be the “go to” person until they were able to fill the position. I wasn’t asked if I wanted this responsibility and no pay increase was divulged. I immediately told my supervisor that I will not take on a supervisory role. I don’t want to do the job and I most certainly am not going to be taken advantage of financially. I have today off and so I took the time this morning to clean up my resume. So far, I have applied for 3 jobs. Just making the decision to look for new work has made me feel a lot better.
All the best and congratulations on making a positive decision.
Thank you
@Browneyedlady good luck!
Why don't you start working for yourself ? It is so much more enjoyable and satisfying. Check with hubbie first for his support.. You have my full support.
In my profession it would difficult to work for myself. My "hubbie", whom I generally regard to as my husband or partner already supports what I do. He just wants me to be happy.
@Browneyedlady
As do I, was just a suggestion as I do not know what it is that you do ??
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Seriously, I admire your gumption. That takes some big ovaries to make such a leap of faith.
Thanks
We work to live, not the other way around. Best of luck in your job search.
Thank you
