I'm quitting my photo lab job asap.I am taking Monday off and hope to be able to give my notice on Tuesday.
I can't afford to not have a job so I am there until I find something else.



Bright and early Monday morning I am applying for a job at Rolling Oaks mall.
It is in the information booth. I like that it is a social type job and that it pays $ 1.50 more than I am making.

I just need to give myself a chance to be happy. I'm telling you all so you will hold me accountable to go for it.

Your boss had issues. Way to take it up strong and slam dunk all over her.

Rasho would be proud.

Why don't you just marry Rasho and then you wouldn't have to work ever again. It can't be that hard now can it?

To be fair, I only got yelled at that one time.

The main reason I am leaving is that I don't want to commit forty hours of my life per week to a job I have absolutely no passion for.
It isn't fair to me or my employer.

09-17-2005, 09:36 PM

Much as I dislike my job, I am still afraid to quit it. I don't know if that is common sense talking or something that needs to be overcome.
Thoughts?

I know I am neither the first nor last to go through this transition phase. How did you guys handle it?

Well as long as you aren't quitting it before you find something else, then I don't see any problem in looking around since you are obviously not happy there.

Did you like getting yelled at?

When you go to work? you think about your family , picture them all standing their with you, are you going to let them down?

When you need motivation? Think about all the people who lost all they had in the NO. Floods, Ask yourself would any of them love to trade places with you?

Are you willing to let them down also?

It may not be a great job but it is one and I am grateful for paid bills.
My biggest fear is doing something that will mess up my future with my Spurs job. I would put up with anything to work there.

I put in an application for a job as an assistant teacher and I am going to apply at a few more place Monday.

If one of those works out, wonderful.
If not, I can hang in there. Who know, this job may improve.

Hurry up November. = )

Perhaps I missed something - is the photo job related to the SBC job?

You already have a good rep with the folks at SBC. If this woman is a total biatch, I'm sure that other people know that about her and won't be surprised when you leave. If you get the teaching job, simply tell the woman that you are leaning towards a career in teaching and it's an opportunity you can't pass up. If you get a job at the mall, tell her you are leaning towards a career in retail and that they are giving you an opportunity to go into management. You get the general idea.

Whatever job you get, take the high road with her and let her know that you appreciate the opportunity she gave you and that you learned a lot. If she blows a gasket, keep your cool and keep repeating how much you appreciate the opporunity you had while you were there.

angel_luv
09-18-2005, 09:13 AM
The photo job isn't at all related to the SBC Center job.

I am just concerned about scheduling two jobs but hopefully someone will be willing to work with me.

Thanks for the advice Melissa. I appreciate it. = )

You bet. Just be honest with your prospective job that you have a previous commitment and tell them what time you have available. Are you looking for part-time or full-time? With the holidays approaching, you might have some great luck looking in retail for a part-time position. I hear that The Container Store is a great place to work and I know they always need holiday help and it can often turn in to a full-time position.

Thanks again to everyone for your support and advice. Here is a quick update.

I called about the teacher's job but foudn that it won't work with my Spurs schedule and also the commute is really not logical with today's gas prices.

I also applied for the mall job today. It was the position I was most interested in . The woman I needed to speak to was off, but her collegue was very helpful. I hope to get a call about an interview tomorrow.

I talked to my boss at the photo lab. I felt it was best to be upfront with her. I told her that the packaging work is just not for me because I like to be around people, not just look at them all day.
She was incredibly understanding and even offered me the chance to train as a school photo photographer.
I feel much better now that everything is out in the open and that I have another job option if the mall doesn't work out.

You should never be stuck in a job you hate, but you don't want to get too many jobs for short periods of time on your resume....it makes you look unstable and can hurt you when you apply for a job that you really want. You can leave some off of your resume, but be prepared to explain the gaps. :lol

You are absolutely right.
This is the first job I have ever quit, except when I had to move. I really hope this next job is a keeper.

The good thing about working two jobs is that even with this change, I still have the Terrace Club position ( going on two seasons) to put on my resume.
