Hoping I find a new job soon. Current one is making me go from 3:45am to 1:00am now, so more of a true third shift. Not a fan... | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Wait, the way I wrote that makes it sound confusing...
I was going into work at 3:45am, since last July. Now they're moving my starting time to 1am. So I'm not working 22 hours or whatever haha. But yeah, I've been on "vacation" this week while trying to make the adjustment, getting up at 10-11pm and this is just depressing as hell. Not to mention being in a second story apartment, I feel like I have to tiptoe and use headphones for 70% of my day now. We were all told we could probably transfer back in 9 months or sooner. Well that certainly didn't happen. It's weird since in the past I was the one to leave jobs on my terms. But this, getting shoved out of my old department that I liked, and for some reason hanging onto this crappy position for nearly a year now... ugh. Hope I find something new this summer. Seriously looking into getting into coding and or IT now as well. I feel like I've kind of hit a wall with my resume and skillsets otherwise. |

Yeah, I was originally told I'd probably get to transfer back "within or sooner than 9 months!" You have to do 9 months in another department to transfer around again the company, even during that COVID shuffle I guess...
Well my former department seems to be in shambles and has lost more clients, they got rid of all temps they had, more full time people are either quitting or transferring. I'd think maybe that opens a slot for me to return, but I keep in touch with a few people over there and still hear nothing. I could try to advance where I am now or transfer somewhere else... but after taking a week off and a lot of introspection, I'm just done with this place. For 5 years I've worked Tue-Sat and I know my social life took a huge hit because of it (never felt up for hanging out Friday's). Now I'm on this overnight schedule too and ugh... tl;dr, I don't think I want to be anywhere in this company anymore. I'm done. Going to try my best to give a good two weeks and not burn this bridge, but yeah haha. I've got a few recruiters I'm talking to and the job market seems to be bouncing back, so I'm sure I'll find something this summer and get back on a normal schedule. And hopefully a company that doesn't have constant OT or weird schedules. Please... (Last edited by Xeoman on 06-05-21 04:25 PM) |

Well I did the thing, of quitting my job, without a real backup plan.
Will be fine for the first month but hopefully I land on my feet soon and somewhere better. Until then I'm relaxing, while taking up a Python course at Udemy along with a book. |

Great to hear from you! Did you get in the Discord yet? It's pretty quiet too though. I wish we could get some others to join in and keep in touch.

Data science, huh!? I'm on that career path now myself! Got the Google Data Analytics certificate and some others from Udemy. I'm about two years into a new tech job. But I do want to level up my game, finances, and all landing a pure SQL job soonish. I love it! Looking forward to evolving with this field. Maybe we'll have a lot to talk about heh.

I appreciate it, thanks! It was a good one. Life has been great the last year or two.

Your site is a lot of fun by the way. Nice nostalgia there. (Last edited by Xeoman on 10-21-23 07:57 PM)

Hey Elara, I'll send you a PM.
|
EDIT: Never mind, saw you were in it already. Does Rogue know? Hope we can keep spreading the word. The board is clearly falling apart... (Last edited by Xeoman on 03-10-24 01:05 AM) (restricted) |

Would you rather live in an underwater aqua city or a space colony?

Warms my heart to see some new posts and familiar faces every once and while. Small world huh? Still weird to me I did this all at some point haha... 20 years, holy frick.

I haven't touched FB in years much and don't see that changing, so sorry I'm not around there much. I pop in the Discord sometimes. Would like to see more join it! Life is challenging as it often tends to be but I'd say overall I'm doing well myself for the most part. 20 years from now, the secret club shall still be here...
