[quote=Anonymous]In a really terrible job situation after just a few months at a new company. Nightmare boss, nightmare work and hours. What I was told interviewing is completely different from what it has turned out to be in several respects. The stress is unreal and I am severely unhappy and have been since day one. I have kept trying to see if it gets better over the first couple of months and it has not. And I do not see it or my boss improving. I want out.

I’m having lots of “I quit” fantasies and each day as I realize how untenable this job is for me I get closer to wanting to give notice, even though I have nothing else lined up. I could swing it for a few months financially if need be. But how does that look to potential employers? How would I explain leaving with nothing else in the pipeline just after a couple months? My resume up to this point shows only commitment - increasing roles of responsibility and several years at each job over 15 years with no gaps, so I am not a “serial switcher” but I am unsure how to proceed. Stick with it until I can find something else or leave now for my sanity and health and try to find something that is a better fit?
