Yep that is true. I worked at a place for 20 years, doing software sales for most of that time. Managed or co-managed the sales team for about 10 years. I pretty much had to take a project manager job that I'm at now. I don't like the work, and the team is not very friendly. The girl that sits beside of me hates me, I think.

That sucks! But you could be in manufacturing, and have to work Christmas Day! ??????
Little bitter about that one! We should start a lawn care company, since grass grows year round here, but we get summers off , with the droughts!
I know a guy that can get us a deal on pre-emergent!??

No, but it could be the resting angry face (trying to use a nice term).

Generally, the actions and the mood of people in the work environment, is a good sign of the moral in the workplace! Does Brick sit behind you?

Yeah that's my thing, how bad does it look if I start looking? If a company sells me a job then isn't giving me the freedoms promised I personally think its fine for me to look even at day 30. If I lied on my resume they would poop can me in 30 days

I can see that, but my thinking was this: When they see the resume, they aren't going to have my explanation to go with it. All they will see is that you started the job a month or two ago, and now here you are sending out resumes. But "You miss 100% of the shots you don't take -- Wayne Gretzky " - Michael Scott.

As long as you can explain why you want to leave or left it’s 100% ok. When I look a resumes I look for skills and knowledge, not length. It’s 2019 so longevity isn’t something I see in resumes anymore.

Honestly, just add the few months to the old job, they rarely, if ever check

You're a glutton for punishment...and I blame you if the usual suspect(s) come and complain that all people post is negative/warm stuff. :)

Got that Jan 2007 look. I imagine this is probably because the EPS is still in phase 6.

This isn’t “Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood” or the Eternal Optimists Club. This is a science based forum. If most of what is happening is negative from a cold or whatever perspective, mostly negative should be posted. If you fear doing that, that’s a problem. If actual info is mainly negative but one instead skews things too positive in their posts, that’s going to hurt that poster’s credibility as far as being objective. Posters being too positive vs reality also ultimately leads to more frustration and negative based sarcasm (which is plentiful here) down the road due to increased disappointment later.

This is in contrast to the folks that post almost 100% negative stuff just to be trolling and are left alone/not criticized.

Kind of depends on the team. Not sure what's wrong with my team....other teams seem to have fun. It would definitely be better if the Brickster was here. Plus, I could tell him why the Wolfpack is going to annihilate the Tarheels in basketball this year!
