RadX Moderator July 26, 2011 Share July 26, 2011 The other point is 'you move up to your highest level of incompetence' Ask yourself, are you capable of the job? If the hat is too big, dun wear it 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadX Moderator July 26, 2011 Share July 26, 2011 TS, I was just like you actually, and it did affect me...same thing, movign up, but did not like it, but after i resigned, found it difficult as i had moved up too high. I was actually v v comfortable before i took tht plunge. but guess, it was seeing how better it would be caused me to jump. After one full circle, i am back at what i love doing and thus, it is not the $$$ nor status, but the overall job satisfaction one derives from his/her daily task. Take it as a learning experience and move on Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

1fast1 Supersonic July 26, 2011 Share July 26, 2011 Bad bosses are a dime a dozen these days. It does make me wonder at least - where the hell do these people come from and how on earth do they get into such a position? Peter Principle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I think not many people enjoys going to funeral daily and nobody enjoys seeing the bereaved families weep and mourns for the dead... I personally would be very affected by the mood and doubt I can do the job well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RadX Moderator July 26, 2011 Share July 26, 2011 I agree with this line the most. Job satisfaction is the most important.. secondary to that is your immed boss. I have the best boss now, and altho i was offered a 30% rise in another place, i thought abt it, and realised that I am contented now, and thus, stay, coupled with my love for what i do, guess, that makes me complete in my work area Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
