I WANT TO LEAVE MY RECENT
JOB, BUT FEEL GUILTY THAT I MIGHT BE HURTING MY EMPLOYEES AND LEAVE THEM
STRANDED.
This is a case that has and
still occurs in so many people’s lives, it is something many of us are guilty
of. A friend has asked for suggestions on what to do some time back but I was
short of words as to what to say. Today again, I am seeing this someone is
asking for what to do. So what do you have to say about this? Your opinion
counts……..
“I have been offered a new job
but my current manager has just gone off work to have surgery as she is very
ill and will be off for nearly three months.
The
thing is, I don’t like my current job. I have been there for only a few months
but I feel it isn't a good fit. I don’t like most of the team, the atmosphere, environment, the work, or my long commute. I've been told that I'm not allowed
to help out colleagues and need to stick to my own work. However, I have around
four hours a day with nothing to do, and my requests for extra work and new
responsibilities have been turned down.
The new
job I have been offered is permanent, with similar pay and benefits to my
present one. It’s a nice company where I have temped before, with a shorter
commute, nice colleagues and a busy environment with varied work.
I feel
guilty thinking about leaving (even though there is some temporary cover for my
manager). I feel that I'm leaving this company in the lurch, even though I don’t like it there. I am still in my probationary period, so my notice is only
one week.”
What should be done in a situation like
this? Not just one person needs these answers.
