Nothing Personal, Just Business

I resigned from my job today... to take up another role in about 2 weeks time - same industry, same kind of work, more money

I've known the guy I'm going to work with for about 3-4 years & am reasonably confident he'll be an okay 'boss'... there's just this little part of me that is always suspicious of glittering, gold things - after all, I was made a quite substantial financial offer for my services by another company last year, only for it to all fall apart within 6-7 weeks & I was pretty close to becoming a bus driver before another company - the one I'm now leaving - stepped in with a good offer. Trouble in Paradise started in December, when they restructured my remuneration, lowering my base salary & introducing sales target incentive bonuses... something I don't like, don't trust or believe in & plain don't want. Just pay me what I'm worth & don't fuck me around, is that so much to ask?

Hopefully I won't have to worry about that with this new role... except I do worry... & I will

Good luck at the new job! Sounds like a good move for you.

Did you give two weeks notice or are you now on a two week vacation? I'm guessing the former.

I did the professional thing & gave 2 weeks notice... though I was prepared for them to just let me go immediately, seeing as I'm going to another company working in the same industry - but either they trust my integrity... or they're just short on staff!!!
