Advice, please.
Feb. 3rd, 2009 06:17 pmI haven't spoken to Mom about it, because talking to her about anything work-related can be infuriating.
I want to go in tomorrow and give my two weeks notice. Yeah, I know the economy sucks. The way I see it, I can either let the economy keep scaring me into staying where I am and be unhappy, or I can get out of here and try to find something better for myself, whether it pays a comparable wage to what I make now or not.
Reasons for quitting now: If I quit tomorrow, which is a pay day, I get my check for tomorrow, the one for two weeks from tomorrow on my last day, and the one two weeks after that since the state operates on a lag pay schedule. In addition, I'll have the money from my tax refund. I'm also on the Secretary 2 list, and if I have to, I'll go back to that. I already got another canvass letter from the list, this time for a facility in Harlem, that they've already scheduled an interview for on the 17th.
I don't know what I should do. I do know I'm not happy. Mom asked me if I need to up the dosage on the Cymbalta again, but this is not an issue that can be fixed by medication, and all that's going to do is make me more dependent and make it harder for me to get off it. I don't want to be on the stuff forever. I already don't like the fact that I'm on it now.
