RubyRS4 Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 If I left my workplace, they'd be screwed. Been here over 8 years from day dot when it all started. I've built the business to what it is today. Actually, had a meeting with the business partners today and laid a few things on the line. I'm getting a raise soon! Plus, I might be sacking one of my admin staff. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/214136-i-quit-my-job-today/#findComment-3781052 Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's always far more ups than downs. nice i was responsible for 12 engineers, and only got feedback when the sh*t hit the fan... the culture and work ethic there leaves a bit to be desired. im postive that in other environments all of the guys there would kick ass, unfortunatly they are getting stifled in the current environment.... but meh! this is no longer my concern Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/214136-i-quit-my-job-today/#findComment-3781579 Share on other sites More sharing options...
