[quote=Anonymous]This happened to me twice, both early in my career. The first was for a defense contractor who didn’t tell me the hours were 6:30-3:30 and the guys would do all kinds of sexist things (posted a calendar of girls in bikinis, would go to strip clubs on lunch break, etc) Both scenarios were because I was inexperienced at reading the signs before taking the job. I would quit if: You can live off of savings or another spouses income for a few more months, or You are confident you can get another job in another 1-2 months. If it’s bearable, I would try to stay a year, but don’t kill your self. Life is too short. I left the first bad job after 2 months but then got a 2nd bad job where I stuck it out for a year. You have to have a lot of mental fortitude for a bad job. The good news is, I’m in a much better job by all accounts 20 years later. Hang in there op and keep interviewing. [/quote]
