So in my Monday morning vent I had said how much I am miserable at my job. Well I need some advice. I have been wanting to put my notice in that I am leaving my current job. DH and I can get by on just his income...but I don't think I want to go too long w/o some type of work. Even if it means a part time job (retail...whatever) until a fulltime job opens. If you were really miserable at your job, would you give notice or just ride it out? I know it sounds stupid to ask...b/c we all know how the economy is...but I feel like I complain/b!tch about my job every night to dh and it is starting to make him almost angry/resentful towards me for having to listen to me. I have an interview this Saturday and feel like I have a good shot at it. So what do you all say? Has anyone been in this position before? I just don't know how much more I can stand being at my job.
Re: advice...opinions...?
You need to stop complaining about your job to your DH, it will wear him down and yes, it will start to affect your relationship. Instead- vent on the bump if you feel the need to vent. Then, you need to start looking for another job. Stop wasting energy being so miserable, it is what it is. Just do your job, go home and try to make the best of it until you can find another one.
I know exactly what it's like to hate your job. An attitude adjustment will do wonders until you can find another job. GL on Saturday.
I was in your shoes not too long ago. I sucked it up and stuck it out until I had a new job in hand, and then I resigned.
That was just over a year ago, and I am so much happier now. But there's no way that I would quit a job without having a new one lined up.
I totally agree with this. I HATE my job and have hated it for a while now, I have been actively looking for another job since January. It has just been recently where I stopped complaining about it, although I do still complain here about it!
