I'm still here at my horrible job. I just haven't had the guts to quit. Mostly I'm scared that potential employers will look down on the fact that I quit/was unemployed for a period of time. Right now I have a really great resume, and I wouldn't want to mess up my chances in the future with a gap of unemployment.
Unfortunately, it hasn't gotten any easier- every day is worse than the one before. In fact, yesterday I had to leave my office in the middle of the day so I could go scream at the top on my lungs in the car. If I hadn't I probably would have been arrested for hurting one of my coworkers... just kidding (kind of).
The good news is that I have four interviews lined up in the next two weeks, with two of them being second interviews. I am HOPING and PRAYING that something works out with those. Luckily I work for the goverment, so no one really questions any time I take off for interviews. If none of these interviews work out (god forbid), I'm probably going to quit in the beginning of next month. I just don't think this job is healthy for me. I cry every day, I yell at anyone who asks how my job is going, and I shake when I drive to work every morning.
If I do get a new job, do you think it's okay to quit with very little notice? I know it's unprofessional to give less than two weeks notice, but I need to get out of here as soon as possible.
If I don't get any of these upcoming job opportunities, how big of an impact do you think having a period of unemployment would look to a future employer?
Sorry this is so long... you have no idea how nice it is to vent!
