work help: I am desperate to get out of my job. - Help.com

unfortunately you can rarely count on anyone to look out for you and honestly i wouldn’t count on your employer for this. that’s great that you’re out looking and have hopes to get that new job….i’d suggest to keep applying to many jobs so if this falls through you’ll have others to back it up. sometimes you just have to create options for yourself.

My dear Anon, I sympathize greatly with your problems. And you are smart to look for other jobs.

But there is something that is much worse than going to a crappy job everyday: it’s sitting at home, filling out scores of job applications everyday, and not getting a single call for an interview . . . and doing this day after day, week after week, month after month . . . until the months turn into a year, and then a year and a half, and you still haven’t gotten a job.

So so not give up your job, no matter how crappy it is, until you have a SOLID offer from another employer!
