I changed jobs bc the other company I worked for didn't keep me busy enough. I was told I would be busy beyond belief at this new job bc it is an accounting firm. I have even more free time here than I did at the other job. I am bored beyond belief. Communication is horrible! I have only been here since Sept 2015. I have no one to talk to. That probably sounds trivial. I have always had at least 1 work friend. None here. In fact, a serious cold shoulder.
A part of me wants to completely ditch accounting and do something else completely different and pays much less. The responsible and loyal part thinks I just need to suck it up! So much conflict! |

Hello rumblingal: The Skeezyks sends his best wishes with the hope that you will be able to come to the best decision for you. Striking out in a whole new direction sounds great!
 But, of course, it's one thing to dream of doing it. It's something else to actually do it...

Hey Rumbingal,
I know how it feels to be bored at work. Are there any professional magazines/websites that you can read online to do continuing education while at work? That way you're not totally screwing around but at least doing something related to you job. I know my job goes through insanely busy periods and then really slow periods where I wonder why I'm at the office at all. It kind of sucks but I'm just happy to have a job that pays me enough to live on. One thing that helps me is making task lists and just go through the day checking off my task list...no matter how menial. I also spend some time chatting in the PC chat rooms to help me with the mental health support I need through out the day. I hope it gets better for you. Maybe it's just part of the learning curve and things will pick up once you know more about the company. At least I hope so. Good luck, Seesaw

If I were you, I'd decided what's my important - stability and being able to earn some money or creative/exciting work. Once you've got the answer, act upon it.

Quote:
I am very sympathetic about the lack of friends issue. I switched jobs a year and a half ago and I have not managed to make an actual friend yet. I get a lot of cold shoulders and some polite civil interactions, but no one who actually likes me. It is very difficult to feel alone at work. |

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
