Yeah handed in notice before checks completed. All worked out fine with the gamble. Started new job last Monday. Steep learning curve. Will see how it goes and as usual keep my eye out for something else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad it worked out What are you going to keep your eye out for, I’m thinking gorilla conservation management or space shuttle pilot might work?

Not sure. All I want is to do something useful, for a fair wage, with sensible people for an organisation that doesn't take the piss. Surprisingly difficult to find.

S-Westerly Posted December 15, 2020 Author Share Posted December 15, 2020 Finding an employer who doesn't take the piss is the particularly difficult one. Thought I'd found it then senior management retired and its gone down the tubes. Just a couple more years and I'll retire -thank f**k. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiggie Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 @S-Westerly Main reason I have been with my current employer for approx 8 years is how well they treat me. I even occasionally spend my off nights chatting to them over text about random crap, not all work related! Bad thing is I know they are planning on retiring within 5 years so I will need to start making plans before then! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
