Hello ... i am thinking ... i want ot leave my work ... i left my other work in a Computer's Store to go to another little one ... winning a little less of money but having less work load ... but i am thinking right now that this is not what i really want.

My boss is not paying what he saids and i am working 6 days a week and he pay only 5!!!!!!! ... and don't pay extra work hours!!!! ... i thing he is playing with me. So i am thniking in work only until Nov 30th and make some money from the programs i have in mind.

I have a lot of ideas for programs but i dont have time to make them :( ... and i am really angry with the #%%& things my boss talk ... "you dont do anything, you are sleeping" bla, bla, bla ...

May be the best i can do is try to survive with the money i have and make a little extra money programming ... until i found another job ... a really one ...

This message is what i have right now in my head ... i just want to share it with you ... and if you want give some advice

Thanks and sorry my bad english (no time to take an English course)

I have never understood employers who get mad if you sleep on the job or don't do the work you are assigned :roll:

A person willing to change their situation to the better, deserve way more respect than a person who just have a big mouth.

The worst that can happen to a person in a bad position, is getting so used to it, that the thought of changing it scares him.

Best regards Henrik.

I say go for it Kaisen.
I had a job a few years that didn't please me at all. It was supposed to be temporary, like 6 months or something, but ended up working there for 3 years. I ended up getting fired too, and mostly because of myself, I just gave up. But trust me, there is ALWAYS something better out there somewhere. And if you are willing to take a chance, which it is, quitting your job, then hats off for you bud.

You have the audacity to think you are entitled to a lunch break?

They are like that here in the USA, too.

I hope you can find a better job where they treat you better.

I second that what Henrik just said.


@Kaisen2100:

Go for it. The best thing would be if you could maybe take holiday and
apply for a new job then. I think it gives you a better position if you still
have a job when you apply for another one.
Wish you good luck and all the best :!: :!: :!:

@Kaisen2100:

You are welcome. Keep your head up and do not give up. Guess searching
for a new job nowadays can be frustrating - so try to think positive ...

All the best for you and good luck ;-)
