yeh i did...was only about 23 too...was the Rates Manager (like an Accountant of sorts) which was my normal job at the time, and the IT Manager. It wasn't so much that I was challenged mentally, but I was BUSY everyday, which I really enjoyed
Yep agreed...if employers paid people what they are worth rather than have them leave, then people would be happy to stay with the one employer. Also if people were offered a genuine career path, again the inclination to leave would not be as great IMO.
A lady I worked with in Sydney was the Payroll Manager...she asked for a payrise (not overly much but a few grand or so)...it was knocked back so she left and got a new job, paying more than she originally asked for with her previous employer. Some months after her departure, her previous employer was having trouble filling her old position as Payroll Manager, so they had to increase the salary on offer. So she applied for her old job back. They interviewed her of course (EEO) and she hit them up for more money again and she got her old job back
Had someone in charge had any brain whatsoever, they would've just paid the lady the increase she asked for, rather than go through all that crap, just to get her back anyway
