My work situation is getting worse day by day, and although I am constantly looking for other opportunities unfortunately they are just not around.
What I realized that my experience might not be enough for the jobs are on the market, so I will need to start educating myself and learn something new. CCNA for starter. I believe voice engineering and Cisco and being more and more related, so in order to get a good job in Voice, I will need to get some experience and a Cisco qualification.
My only problem with this that I am amazingly lazy person, I wonder if this current situation would have a positive effect on my motivation or I will stay in this ridiculous employment for a long time.
The new thing they came up with at work, that now they want me in the office once a week. Unbelievable. What does it mean? A return trip in numbers:
- 266 miles return trip by car - value depreciation - 6 hours of driving
or alternatively
- take the train, travel 7 hours return, with 4 changes, and for what? 1 hour long meeting in the office and sitting around for another couple hours.
I will have to sit down with my manager for this, but this is unacceptable request and I need to find a way saying NO to this ....
