I work for a huge Company and have become close to some of the people I work with. One of my managers would email me (work related usually) but the email would be very informal and would also include a bit of chit chat about her weekend (not to the point of taking the piss in work time though). I sent an email the other day to one of my colleages that was important but lighthearted and I had to copy my new Boss in as it was in relation to something he had asked. I only put the word tee hee in after I had mentioned something about a word document I had problems with. He went absolutely NUTS and said he didn't tolorate chit chat in emails as I was now connected to him and it is unprofessional. I am very good at my job and have never been spoken to about such things. I was fuming. Was he right or is he going to be the Boss from Hell?

Do you have to go to classes? I know you have to pass a test--how hard is it?

I have part time job at the moment at the pay is really rubbish (£3.70 an hour). I got offered another job a while ago which was £5.56 an hour and I really wanted to take it but I turned it down because I felt bad seeing as I'd already started at this other job and I didn't want to tell them I wanted to quit.

I've been working there for about 3 months but the low pay is really starting to get on my nerves so I'm thinking about quitting and reapplying for this other job as they're always looking. The only thing is I really don't know how to tell them I want to quit, I don't know how to go about it and I'm going to feel so guilty because i get on well with the people I work with.

I'm sure it has a lot to do with how long you were in each job, your age, etc. For me, I'm 55, was in my last job 5+1/2 yrs. I held the job before that for 7-yrs.

Am I supposed to go back to my first employer right out of college?

People say I use my mental illness as an excuse for poor performance on certain tasks in which I don't, but THEY use my mental illness as an excuse for why I can't do this & that. I go apply for jobs, & employers don't even consider looking @ my application or resume. No one wants to hire me, & I'm frustrated. & then when I do get a job, people fire me the 1st day. Am I destined to be poor forever?

I teach abroad. No one speaks English here. I've been here 6 months and have 6 more months to go. I wanted to quit 2-4 months into it, but somehow my company convinced me not to. I went back home for 1 month, now I am back. The guy I was kinda seeing wants nothing to do with me so we had a falling out. Other foreigners and I just dont click. I feel so alone and lonely. I cannot go out and joing a club or try to make friends bcuz NO1 speaks English and I live in a small town. I feel so down. I LOVE the people I work with (they dont speak Eng.) and the kids I teach but the job I do-I was not trained well and I have major anxiety. I feel so nervous teaching, I feel sick a lot (literally). Sometimes before work I feel so sick and dread going to work. I've had jobs I dread but it's really hard bcuz I don't have anyone here. I am so lonely and I want to go back. I want to quit..I'm nervous. I don't want ppl to think I am quitting bcuz I just got dumped. How do I quit? Just do it today? help

How do you like working when other people are sleeping and sleeping when other people are working? I do overnight news at a radio station and I enjoy the night shift.

It does involve a few handicaps when it comes to shopping, doing errands, and banking and such, but I do enjoy the night shift and think a lot of people would.

I RARELY get sleepy on the job...

I am in a tough position...I graduated college in May from a top school, top of class and while thinking about going to law school, I started working an entry level job at a top firm. I thought I was doing well until my supervisors sought feedback from my more experienced coworkers about me and she decided to tell my boss every mistake I have made since I started. Now my boss has threatened to fire me if I don't show a month of improvement. However, she will be getting feedback from the same girl who clearly does not like me, and since I am under "review" I can't really defend myself. In addition, I realize that this job really isn't what I want and I would be much happier in the non-profit world doing what I like and not working 70 hour weeks. I am thinking about quitting after only 3 months on the job in order to prevent myself from possibly getting fired, but am worried that I will have a hard time finding a new one since I would have left so early. What should I do?

So, it doesn't seem like I was intentionally hiding the job. I just don;t feel that it relevant to the position that I am applying for.

Am I the only person who has felt this way? I feel like I stick out like a sore thumb and every time I go to pass a message along to somebody (I'm the receptionist), they look at me with this annoyed exasperated look on their face - Is it me or are they having a bad day. I honestly can't tell and because the office department where I work is small (8 people including myself) and family run, I'm finding it hard to fit in and one wrong move then I might get fired. I also get a hunch that they may be talking about me on their private home time because one day they are nice to me and the next are totally snappy and stuck up to me. The husband and wife work there together (my boss') and the wife's cousin and his fiance work there together. So tell me, what would you do in my situation, how would you feel and how can i make myself fit in more? I am after all the outsider.
Please help - desperate to keep my job!!!
