Quitting in two hours..........ai......... hours, two, Quitting

utopia

Checking the clock every hour.
Two more hours, it's time to say goodbye.
It takes so much energy to come to this end.
I knew she wasn't happy about me this morning but as always, no day is a good day.

I know quitting this job sound insane to everybody but I had enough.
There is no point staying in a company when you lost all the faith and passion.

It's ironic, my so called "future" office is renovating right next to me everyday and I'm courting the days.
Isn't it funny? By the time I'm done with my two weeks notice, my office should be done too.

It's extremely tough to hang in the resign letter. If it's all about me only, it's fine but there are too many uncertainty.
Yet, I still have to breathe hard and walk into her office in two hours. To be exact, 2.5hr.

Two years has gone, it's time to move on. Even if it's risky and  uncertain. I gain more strength to face the future after what had happened these years. I should not live under a shelter forever. It's time for me to step out this door and find a new path, rather it's bad or good decision. I will be responsible for all the consequences. It's my life after all.

Thanks.

You never know if you don't try.  
May be better, may be worse, but at least you know you are not satisfied at the moment and I would say it is very important.
You are still young la.  If the next o ...

Sazabi,

one curious question want to ask you since I think you are in management, right?
How do you see this situation? An international company found my C/V on internet and they are desperately need to look for 4 ppl for each office.
The HR manager still insist to contact me after I ignore him the first time (both e-mail and phone) because he is from montreal. Then, after I answer his call the second time, he actually flied to vancouver to interview me from Montreal. Then, the first interview, he highly recommended me to the office manager to see me for second round.

After the second round, they said their financial manager would do an phone interview with me since he is in Montreal (which is the final stage as far as I understand). Then, I was on the phone for 30 minute with their senior vice president.

Here is what the vice president said which confuse me

"Welcome on board" (That mean hired me right???)

"I will see you in the Vancouver office if we are both still interest in each other"

"Do you have baby? Because with the new SAP system, I'm sure you might need to stay behind to do follow up at the beginning"

"how soon can you leave your current job? Because I want you to go to the information session training in US on March 10, 2008 but seems like you can't make it because of the two weeks notice. But don't worry, you won't miss anything if you fly to Montreal in May for the 3 weeks training"

"I think you would fit the position well. I will ask our HR to contact you on my way out"


Then, 1.5 week, no response. Well, they returned my call on Monday said that the HR was away on Thursday and Friday that's why he couldn't return my call.
Then, the HR said it looks like they want to do one more interview with me. Either I fly over to Montreal to see them or they send someone to Vancouver to meet with me. It's depends on my status. At this stage, it is still very promising.


WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON with them??
anyone can tell me? Today is Wed, and they still haven't send me anything that they want to arrange for the last interview.

Are they BSing me? Is it normal for a large company like that?

utopia

damnit, she just left all the sudden.........and told me last minute that she has to go get her contact lens...

Guess I have to delay one more day~~

utopia

Those words that I mentioned was from their senior vice-president in their North America head office.........

The HR manager is the most quiet HR I ever met in numerous interviewsssss..

utopia

The whole interview with this company make me feel like I"m day dreaming...... they were like quick action that I quickly gone through their 3 interview within a week.......so hot that all the sudden, it's quiet down without any notice........

It just so strange...., the so called Financial manager (their accounting based in Montreal) and the HR manager dun seems to be a talker at all.

80% of the interview, they just sit there and wait for me to sell myself to them. They spend probably 5-10 minutes to ask me question and the rest of the time, they keep asking "if there anything else you want to ask" or "if  there is anything else you want to tell me" for sooooo many times..........

and on my 2nd round, I don't think I done good at all...... then they select me for the 3rd one...and give me a feeling that is the final one............. ( I can't recall now.. it was the office manager who done 80% of the talking.... just a old gentleman keep telling how great their company is and how life change without notice...... )

I had no experience that deal with international company like that before. When I said international, it mean they have office globally, including HK regional office lor...

So I'm not sure if it's because they are still selecting candidate or  big company tend to do things slow

Yes! this is what I would do too.  I won't quit unless I got the new job.

I understand that's why I said it sounds insane to almost everybody around me that I'm quitting a job that will never fire me.........

utopia

I'm quitting not because of this interview la.
So many things had happened lately, and that's really way too much. I can only feel uncertainty and mess in this office lately.
Everyday has something new happening and with the key employee away for meeting for two weeks and new management and new owner, everything seems to be out of control.....

ai....., well, my case is different I guess? If I can't find a job sometimes soon, I would focus on education since it's my first priority.
