NWR: What would you do??? JOB RELATED

So everyone pretty much knows that I am miserable at my job. Well I just went on the website that my company uses for staffing & MY job is posted on there! It is definetly my position, and it says for permanent hire. Do I say something or keep my mouth shut?

Keep your mouth shut and hightail it out of there.

Are you sure they are not creating another position that is identical to yours?

Either way, if you're miserable, start looking. Now that you are married, you'll need another project to keep you occupied.

Wow..I'm at a loss for words. I would definitely look into my options and not rely on anything at this job. I would of course keep it quiet....that's just wild. Since you are miserable already though, take this as a sign to get the heck out of there while it's still your call!

Wow....I'd start looking! But I'd also keep quiet....

My favorite quote is 'Find happinness in your job, or you'll never know what happinness is'.

Don't stay somewhere you aren't happy....you've got the man of your dreams, go out there and find the job of your dreams! GOOD LUCK

i would contact a head hunter..do your best to find something and resign on your own terms...

worst case scenario and you don't find something and they lay you off, you will have unemployment...

what type of work do u do? if u want, fm me..i hear things from friends all the time.

good luck!

Keep your mouth shut and let them fire you so you can get the severence pay and unemployment. Do not leave if you don't have something lined up.

Hang in there. I know how it feels to hate your job. I left one sh!tty job for another.

You know how I feel Tara!!! I would stay & suck them for everything you are entitled to- apparently they are either looking for a different person to fill your position, or they are hiring another person to expand your department. Either way.. If your not happy, you really should start looking. What is holding you back?

I am looking, just nothing worth going for has come my way.

I'm so sorry. I know you want to get out of there but that's so underhanded.

Are you sure it's for your location? Is there too much work for you already, maybe they're hiring someone to help? Could it be for a different department?

Everyone is pretty much in agreement, that you should stay quiet and try to get out of there. Is your job something the LIW ladies could help with? Maybe someone else here could give you a lead? I just wish we could help.

I'd do what others have said. Stay quiet...keep looking. If they are looking to replace you (hopefully not the case) let them be the one to seperate you...you can collect unemployment and hopefully get a nice severance package. don't quit or you get nada.

Re: NWR: What would you do??? JOB RELATED

See I don't know, I am the type to want to say something. But you should def. leave b/4 they fire you so it's on your terms.

Re: NWR: What would you do??? JOB RELATED

well if you're that unhappy there, maybe it is a sign to get out. I would stay quiet but definitely start looking around. Hope everything works out
