[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Laid off in May. Got a new job via personal connections in July. It's a lesser version of what I did in my last job if that makes sense. I went from closing six figure deals to four figure deals.

On top of it, company is extremely disorganized and micromanage-y. Like, to the point that a fellow new employee told me she regrets taking the job. (I'm not at that point yet, but she's also had a more chaotic six months than me.)

Boss is great, albeit disorganized. Some of my coworkers are great, others don't know how to do basic office functions. (I.e. coworker who "does not know how to use Teams" so she just doesn't use it and is impossible to reach...this is not age-related bc she's two years younger than me.) I like the work, but I don't think there's enough of it to fulfill me long-term.

A job more like my previous role opened up a few days ago, at a company I've long been trying to work at, and after much waffling, DH finally told me "You get one go around." So I reached out to the hiring manager (I know her personally) and said I'd like to apply, which she told me I should definitely do and she'd be in touch to schedule an interview once I formally applied.

...How much of a POS would I be to do this? I feel really bad; this job took me in when I was laid off, gave me a great salary, and other than being annoyed at the general chaos, I like everyone. It feels like a super shitty thing to do but I also just don't see myself being fulfilled in my current role for more than a couple years. Basically it's like a relationship where your boyfriend is okay but not "The One" but he's nice and takes care of you so you'd feel bad breaking up and looking for someone who is The One.

Thoughts? Basically I want you guys to tell me I'm not a complete POS but if I am being one, please tell me. [/quote]

Do employers wring their hands and fret when they lay people off? [/quote]
