WOuld it be dumb to quite after 1 month?

:what:

I look at it like this; They'll "lay you off" at any given moment just to save money. No warning or anything, just a phone call/email to come see your manager. He's lookin at you like :shaq: "We have to make some cuts..." :takedat:

and you'll be left like :to:

If you wanna leave, leave.

It seems like your trying to convince yourself that your old job was better.

And that's just from reading you post in this thread.

Being at a job you hate is one of the worst feelings, because you spend so much time there.

I took at $20,000 paycut to leave my last job and come to my current one, and I truly feel it was worth every single penny. Not everyone can afford to make that drastic of a sacrifice, but if you can make any sacrifice at all and not have it affect your ability to pay bills, then you owe it to yourself to make a change.

Seriously, DO NOT try and tough it out. It will not get any better. Find a way out immediately. Life is too short to spend 1/3rd of it in misery.

man, when I first started my current job (only been here like 9 or 10 weeks), I was so frustrated cuz I didn't know shyt. I was used to being the cat at my old job that knew everything. but im working and learning and building. it takes time to get used to ur new gig. dont' be a quitter.

Don't leave your current job until you have secured another one. I have had alot of jobs I hated but I never quit a job until I already had another lined up.

But thats mainly because I been on my own since 19, if I quit I can't go back to my parents house to get myself together. bills dude at the first of every month so I can't have no gaps...

Adam and Beaniemac are both making good points.

I do feel like I'm giving up and being a quitter and taking the easy way out...fock

But then again, what if it doesnt get better and I can't find another job? :sadcam:
