Six Signs That You Should Run, Not Walk, from Your New Job - GoFuckYourself.com

Bluewire Ross · 01-16-2006, 06:54 PM

So you've finally landed a new job and you're thrilled to be in the working world again.Unfortunately, a company that seems like Cinderella during the interview process can end up looking more like an ugly stepsister once you actually join the team. Here are six real-life, sure-fire signs that it's time to run away and never look back!

1. You ask your new boss for supplies and she hands you a No. 2 pencil and legal pad -- and nothing else.

2. You were shown to a cubicle your first day of work, given a company manual and haven't been spoken to since.

3. Every time you tell someone about your new job with the company they raise their eyebrows and say "Really? Wow... good luck with that."

4. After two weeks on the job, you are already halfway to becoming the employee with the most seniority.

5. You answer the phone while the company's secretary is away from her desk and find that the voice at the other end is a collection agency calling for the third time that week

6. You notice that every day for the last five days, at least one person has run crying from your boss's office.

Nice though it's two years late for me..

Never had any of that happen.

But do keep your eyes and ears ope for your boss telling people that he/she wanted to take care of your work, but they hired you instead.

hehe worked a place like that at one time...

was fun... at one point in time we (me+3 other senior emploees) didnt even bother talking to new people unless they had been there for 2 months first... was too much of a hazzle to keep up with the new people comming in and leaving 2 weeks later..

the boss was a reall asshole but couldnt really risk loosing us so he played nice with us - but was a total fuck helmet towards the rest of the people working for him..
