Well although this new promotion is imminent, I have decided to up the job application process.
I have realised I don’t particularly like my job, I’m actually starting to hate it. I don’t think I ever really loved the job in the first place. It was always for experience and for now, until I found something else.
I want to progress and although I am, I feel like I am wasting away at my current role. I don’t want to be in a position where I am ‘stuck’ again in a job. I shall be keeping a look out with all agencies, using social media to find a job and generally applying for jobs to further my career.
Just looking at job sites, and the position is still just as bad as it was when I was looking at jobs earlier this year. Fingers crossed I can find something soon.
What aspects of your job don’t you like? Is it the area of law?..

I like the girl I will be working with, but she can be a bitch too. I hate change and I’m scared :s
Poonam — August 29th, 2010 at 5:07 pmOh no…. I thought you were all geared up for this website thing. :-0
Keeping your options open is definitely a good thing but maybe you should try it before giving up all hope!
Michael — August 29th, 2010 at 10:31 pmIt’s a shame that they haven’t seen your potential and put you in something more relevant and fitting.
I really hope you find something you enjoy with people who cherish and value you. Good luck.
Gaurav Patel — August 30th, 2010 at 12:24 amIt is always good to keep those options open. You may find something you love. But who knows the promotion may end up being a good experience and just remember no matter how much we love a job – we all have bad days.
travisthetrout — August 30th, 2010 at 11:19 am@ Michael – I am but then the fear of change has sorta taken over. I am definitely keeping my options open.
@ Gaurav – thank you x
@ Travis – I think I was having a really bad day, it all just got to me. Change is always perceived as bad. I just hope it isn’t as bad as what I think it will be.
Poonam — August 30th, 2010 at 7:07 pmFeeling ‘stuck’ in a job is one of the worst feelings to have.. Definitely keep an eye out for new opportunities if you are starting to feel that way about work. I’m confident you will find something soon
Locksley McPherson Jnr — August 30th, 2010 at 11:04 pmI am definitely doing that, if only there were jobs out there to apply for!
