Creeping Around

When changing jobs, the part I hate most is the creeping around part. I hate having to tip toe around the office and pretend I am going to be here in a few weeks. It is hard to handle. It is more emotionally difficult to do than anything else because if you have people you don't want to leave behind, the hardest part is keeping your mouth shut and not letting them in on your secret.

It is a big secret and should remain that way until you get your offer letter. Once you get your offer letter, then you can proceed with your resignation letter. That part sucks even if you hate your boss. It sucks because you can never tell them the truth. It is all lies all the time. You need to calmly tell your boss some line of bullshit about why you are leaving. They may counter you, but if you are truly unhappy at your do not accept that offer.

Only after you accept your new position and you resign from your old position should you ever reveal to your coworkers or mouthy friends that you are making that change. Fuck everyone else you need to protect yourself.

It is about getting the best deal for yourself. I was a lot happier with the system at my old job. I want to wake up and want to go to work.
