SILENCE NO MORE...

I just have to let it out. Nobody has the right to treat somebody like dirt. I resigned from one of my jobs but it was ugly. They accused me of being ungrateful and manipulative. But what can I do? I am no longer happy working for something that does not interest me. I don't think ill of others but I just pray to God to let them feel what they made me felt.

37 took the journey:

erm... wish sooner they could see the whole picture properly... and respect your decision :) good luck

i'm a firm believer in "what goes around comes around." when you treat people like dirt, someone would eventually treat you the same way.

why stay in a job that bores you? we're all on a quest to find what makes us happy, and our jobs play a significant role. give your former employer some time...then maybe one of these days, you can pay them a friendly visit. don't burn bridges.:D

Like Luna, i believe that what goes around, comes around. Just this morning, i was absent from the office, and i learned that my bosses were irritated with no-money-in-their -accounts thing, and i heard from my mates that they were scolded and called stuffs like bobo, walang utak. It hurts to hear stuffs like those things, kung hindi lang nila kailangan ang pera they wouldn't stay working in my company I work with too. Ako din, pero i need a job, and i love my job...the bosses suck... they do...

LS: I do hope you will move on to much better things. There is no reason to work where you are unhappy.

I agreed with Fishing guy:)
Good Luck for the new outcome & all the best.

So long as you are happy with your decision, what they think matters little. But remember, word of mouth is a mighty equalizer.

i agree with you kuya. pag nde kna happy sa work, why stay? kung hindi mo naman mabibigay ang lahat. mas ok na dun ksa work na talagang passion mo at maibibigay mo ang higit pa sa 100% ng iyong makakaya!

No job, even if it is well paying and prestigious, is worth hanging on to if you are not happy. However, it is always good to leave graciously, if circumstances would allow it. Just save your "shit list" for later when you are in a position to kick asses LOL.

EM said...

No worries... it just shows that you made the right decision. Put it behind you, straighten your back and look forward. Infinite opportunities are waiting for you.

Good Luck and God Bless!

As long as you do what you believe in your heart is the right thing to do. Tomorrow is a new day and when one door closes another will open.

I have nothing else to add after all the comments except my good wishes wherever you land your next job.

Vanessa said...

It is their loss, not yours... so just move on.

alicesg said...

I hope you will find a better job. Office politics are dirty. Been there and never like it. You can get stabbed many times in your back without you knowing it.

I wish you all the best in your next career. BTW, you still have your photography skills and travelling experience to help you out in the next career. Good Luck.

fortuitous faery said...

i'm sure you made the right decision. no use lingering in a place that causes you more misery than happiness. good luck!

aiLee920 said...

when you're not happy anymore, that's the best choice that you can pick... who wants to work a job that you are being treated like dirt...
i hope you're feeling ok now....

Wow pare ang bigat ng post mo. Pero knowing you to be a humble and easy-going person, i am sure malaki talaga ginawa nila kasalanan sayo for you to have this post. Karma lang katapat nyan. Good Luck Attorney.

Hi Norman! Hopefully you took the right decision! Wish you all the best!!

For a change: do you want to see Trakai? Blogtrotter has it and misses your comments… Enjoy and have a great weekend!

Andy Briones said...

I agree, it's not worth doing something you don't believe in. It's good that you resigned. Don't worry, you'll eventually find something better than your previous job.

June said...

Pare, wag ka mag-alala. Nandito kami para sa ito. Mali ang husgahan ka ng tao na di naman alam ang pagkatao mo. Malinaw naman pare na manggagamit lang sila. Tama ang ginawa mo na iwanan mo na sila. Kung meron man na ungrateful at manipulative, sila yun. Wag ka na mag-isip kun ano-ano, basta nandito lang kami.

BlogusVox said...

I hope you'll find a job where you are at home and happy. Self-satisfaction is essential in a working environment.

KRIS JASPER said...

Im sorry about that Attorney....

I believe in karma, Im sure it'll come around again. This time (as long as you've been true and honest) you'll have the last laugh.

dodong flores said...

You made a good decision staying out of the job you're no longer happy working about. Sana hindi ka naman lang sana hinushagan.
I also have the same experience a lot of times, pero sige lang. In the long run, makikita pa rin naman kung ano yung totoo...

plaidboy said...

they're just bunch of assholes!

as long as you are happy don't mind them.

They'll cut the crap out of you sooner...

wish you luck sir

ShatterShards said...

I wish I could be as decisive as you. I've tried the PROs and CONs game, and still I couldn't decide which path to take.

I agree with you... so little time, so much to do, at ang hirap mag-budget ng oras!

the donG said...

i feel sorry about this travel buddy. you could have spent time with us over the weekend.

Anonymous said...

correct sila! iwanan mo na lang at maghanap nang iba. marami dyan masmagandang pang opportunity. Kaya nyo yan attorney.

Nanaybelen said...

ay!! bakit anonymous? si nanaybelen yan hehehe mali na naman ako nang pindut.

REDLAN said...

Oh my, ngayon ko lang nabasa 'to. napakabusy ko sa plurk. I guess, hindi nila matanggap na magresign ka kaya kung ano-ano ang sinasabi nilang masama. Parang counterpart mo si Angel Locsin. Isa lang yan sa mga jobs mo. Kaso masakit yung mga paratang na hindi naman totoo. Hayaan mo na sila. Hindi naman totally makapagpasaya ang isang trabaho o pera, ang importante masaya ka sa ginagawa mo at sa pinili mong trabaho. Isa lang ang masasabi ko, mabait kang tao, kaya kahit hayaan mo lang ang masamang karma ay babalik sa kanila. At the end mapangiti ka na lang. Kaya go go go.

walkwithmetothemoon said...

Like Redlan, was so busy with Plurk as well. They might just be sourgraping. I know how it feels. But pain is temporary. A day later something or somebody will take their place and make your day.

A month ago I resigned from work too and for the same reason, I was not happy anymore.

All I can say is, we all have the right to be happy. Never allow them or someone to push you around.

jei said...

You've quit your job??? Well, CONGRATULATIONS!!! I always wanted to do that but I'm such a chicken shit. I mean, I hated my job for as long as I can remember but because it's my bread and butter and I have two growing kids and my hubby is not really that rich but I don't love him less for it...what choices do I have? Stick to my job and have a steady income or let my kids live a miserable life?

I guess you're still young and single, right? So no problem for you. Why get stuck with work you detest anyway???

Good luck! It will be fun (hehhehe, yeah, right!).

Uno said...

heyyyy. hope you are ok now.

Lantaw said...

ang tapang mo bro! good for you. ngayon ko lang nabasa ito :(, better late than never :)

Garando said...

Resignations leads to new opportunities. Don't look back, hayaan mo na sila. What's more important is that you've now pulled out the thorn in your side, and you're ready to move on. I wish you the best of luck! :)
