one week into my new job and i've to admit that i've that 'feeling of regret'.
i'll say one of the main reasons is that its too rush a decision to leave my ex-coy. i should have stayed longer to see how things go, especially my ex-boss really likes me and has the plan to bring me further..
another lesson i've learnt is not to 'consult' anyone in your coy on your decision to leave for greener pastures. this is because these people you consult usually will not be in a good position to give you a third-party view of the whole scenario as they are giving their comments in their perspective, ie their views may be their own view of their work instead of for your work.. in simpler terms, their views are distorted.
i also feel that i'm easily influenced by words of other people. oh yeah do not trust any people from job agency as their main objective is to sell you to another coy so that they can earn commission. they usually do not have your interest at heart so do not listen to them unless you are dying to go... from this incident onwards, i'll be firm on my decision.. and when i receive comments from such people, i'll evaluate their words base on what position they are giving their comments from...
okok.. remember i'm supposed to be 'slightly regretted' and from the above i seems to be really regretted... but before i left i told myself that i should take all things positively and not look back, remember?? think positive!! dun regret!! *chant*
oh well, looking on the bright side, my salary is certainly heading in the right direction after this jump.. thats important to me as i just dun feel justified to be earning lesser than what i'm supposed to be worth. since young, i'm already punching myself for accepting a $5/hr job when others are getting a $7/hr..
really, i cannot say for sure how long i'll stay in my current coy.. maybe one year? maybe two years? maybe only a few months?? hahaha!! i really dun think i can stay for more than two years.. and i'm serious!! but something i can be sure is that i'll surely leave the coy when there is a better opportunity out there, as there won't be any pull factors to hold me in my current coy like my previous one..
