Mr. Martinez Posted October 8, 2015 Report Share Posted October 8, 2015 Guy at my last place was like that I didn't sit near him but a friend did. One morning friend decided to put his headphones in and by 10 am my man plugged it out of his ear and began waffling on.. Nearly died when he told me that. This guy gave zero fucks. Would calm stop the CEO in the middle of the office and start telling him mad stories too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grafter Posted October 12, 2015 Report Share Posted October 12, 2015 Had my mid yr review Apparently I've got to take more ownership and lead on things Do not want. This is a bag of stress Me not having any ambition in this place is really hard for people to understand. And now as a matter of process it seems impossible to live out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a bag of stress Me not having any ambition in this place is really hard for people to understand. And now as a matter of process it seems impossible to live out I feel your pain I just want to keep my head down and coast through until I get a better job somewhere else The opportunities to 'progress' here are so small fry that I can't even be arsed to pretend to be interested Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grafter Posted October 12, 2015 Report Share Posted October 12, 2015 Im starting my own. So all my extra thought energy and ambition goes in to that. If i move to another company I'll go through the same thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brem Posted October 14, 2015 Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 My job is a proper rat race. A very promotional structure. It means that you are often competing with your buddies. The people you joined with. I'm just disillusioned with client service. They are often d*cks and their demands are unreasonable and you work round the clock to make it happen because well.... That's the name of the game. Primarily because of work stress and the hours in which I eat (late at night) I have gained 15kg in the past year. Losing 2 parents to heart related conditions is giving me a wake up call that either I should just relax at not let work stress me to this level or find another job. Doing the former is difficult if you take any pride in your work and the deliverable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grafter Posted October 14, 2015 Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 Sounds like u need a change of career 15kg ! Sorry to hear about your parents Don't die for your job cos they wont die for you. An when u did they will jus replace you. An if u get sick an need to take sick leave theres a chance that wont go down well with work. Could end up getting bullied to leave all cos you weren't well Perspective is important. Hope you work it out / With our new system they are tryin to make us compete with eachother but all I know is im doin my best an im not signing anything to do with poor performer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mame Biram Diouf Posted October 14, 2015 Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 Was gonna literally make a topic similar to this tonight after work Need some opinions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brem Posted October 14, 2015 Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 Yeah. I'm at big 4. Its a madness sometimes but I would never top myself over work. That's stupid. Would rather get a new job. Being the most logical step. The difficulty with me is that I always want to develop and up the skill set . Most finance industry jobs aren't interesting and only once with all the clients I have worked with have I ever thought to myself "that guy is pretty good". I live in hope that I will find a role I really want (where they want me back). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brem Posted October 15, 2015 Report Share Posted October 15, 2015 So my mums funeral was Monday. I went back to work yesterday. Today I am already getting fucked in the arse and will probably be doing an all nighter. Question: should I go HR with this shit? It's not morally right, right?
