Re: Career 'suicide'
Prayers sent Darryl. I'm sure one way or another you'll find peace. Either they will give you what you want or you'll move on. It might not happen as quickly as you'd like, but I'm sure it will work out. It's good you had the guts to stand up and say something. You might get relief and not have to change employers. Without speaking your mind there would be 0% chance of that.

Re: Career 'suicide'
Well....
I guess good things come to those who wait.... its been almost two months I had a meeting with my new manager today after a group meeting with all the other same level guys in my dept. At the group meeting he made a bunch of interesting statements that I needed to see him in private to ensure that I understood him clearly. It seems the rock has been lifted, and the load will be a lot lighter... so long as he lives up to his plans. I told him that 'if' he follows through, then he doesn't need to look for a replacement for me It looks like suicide averted.

Re: Career 'suicide'
I am glad to hear that things will get better and you don't have to lose any more money on the lottery.
God's blessings that things get better and you can "enjoy" work a little. Peace of the Lord be with you.

Re: Career 'suicide'
sometimes you have to be willing to step into the uncomfortable zone in order to get your voice heard. I had to do something similar with my job and it worked out for me in the long run. There are times when the risk is worth the reward. I agree it took alot of courage and big balls to do what you did. Good luck man.

Re: Career 'suicide'
I quit my job too man. I cannot say why and all that but lets just say I couldn't work for idiots that made me do work beneath me and ask for my suggestions....yet never take them and treat me like SH*T on top of it. So I called up the GM and said .....bye I'm out. Been feeling fantastic since then.
I now am starting working on my new job as a bartender, took my ABC card test today. Looking to go to bartending school next week or two. Things are looking great. I wish you the same luck. |

Re: Career 'suicide'
I'm really glad it worked out for you. I really feel your pain. Personally, I'm burned out myself and ready to move on. The problem...I need an additional year of training to take a position that will ultimately pay less. But, I will be in my calling (finally) and you can't put a price tag on that. Sometimes you just have to do what you have to do.
