some advice needed...
-
Hi ppl....
I know i rarely post here but I do surf this forum almost daily.. Jus that lazy to log in =p
Would like to seek your advise on some matters...
I am currently working full time and have started to study part time this month. However, I am v unhappy in my job (4th mth here), not sure if shld quit.. coz it will affect my resume, only work 4 mths jiu run away..
I am working in a v small office in ubi area, and this gets on my nerves every morning and evening as this area confirm traffic jam, jam and more jam.. so ulu.... There's only one bus that comes in to my area, and usually would need wait for 10-30 mins for the bus to come. Including the bus that i waited at my hse there, the journey could take more than 1 hour, which is unbearable for me as I live in the central, and is used to the convenience of short travelling time w the beloved mrt..Waiting at bus stops also mean being shine down by Mr Sun for as long as my waiting time lasts. By the time i reach office I would be so pissed I feel like suffocating..
And when i reach office, I would be faced w an aircon that might as well not be there @ all.. And a big fat PC monitor that looks like it has been used for more than 10 years.. although i using XP, but the monitor makes me feel like i still using Win 3.11 -_- Everything here doesnt work, and my boss always promise to fix them, but end up mayb he will only fix 1 out of 10 problems I mention, and the one he solved will be spoilt again within days..
I feel computers are the most impt, as we face them everyday...the least we could have is a flat screen monitor.. right? If not it really spoil our eyes and mood to work...

Don't complain lah... Me also got the old 15" CRT monitor and a desktop CPU which is P3 300Mhz running on 64 Mb RAM... Missing my good old days of able to see bikini claded babes walking in front of me...
-
(continued) And most imptly, I dun click w my colleagues at all.. there are only 2 other colleagues + my boss, and although they are not v old, I cant talk to them at all... I tried to strike conversations, but their ans are usually jus a few sentence..they seem uninterested in my life... So hard to find nice colleagues nowadays Thus in office I would usually speak for less than 20 sentence a day.. and a lot more things i sian abt.. but dun wan to bore u all haha...
But there are advantages... I can go home on the dot, which is gd for studies, but the journey is so long, by the time i reach sch i'll be mentally drained.. I can listen to radio and can surf net & msn.. But I have so little things to do that all these become bored as well...it may sound wierd to some ppl that i get bored from nothing to do, but it really is! imagine working from 9-6pm with nothing to do, and cant look forward to lunch as well as this place is boring w boring colleagues..
Shld I change my job? What will you guys do if you are in my shoe?
Or shld I convert myself to a full time tuition teacher? but that will mean losing 2 years work exp, and when i graduate pay will be low..
And ya, how do you guys tell your boss you about to resign? I think iz quite hard to say out.. Any suggestion on what to say?
Any advise is appreciated.. Xie Xie! -

Just type your resignation letter and put inside envelope and give to ur boss lo
-
well.. if you worked until so unhappy why not just quit.. 4 months or 4 years doesn't matter.. if you are happy working as a tutor and don't mind the low pay.. then go ahead..
at least you are doing something that you like and not something that you dun like about.. and keep complaining every day about work..
isn't it better?? -
ya lor i also complain till i sick of myself...
think i find job asap and quit ba
Thanks for ur advise

And nope. You don't have to include this 4 months of work into your resume if you think it would reflect poorly on you... -
