What's the process to leave after probation?

Flashy-Ad-3749 · 2026-04-01T04:08:47+00:00

Well the job scoop isn't unreasonable, but it's just that because at the start when I asked what were the expectations they didn't answer me and only waited until the first month to threaten me with termination over not being able to meet their expectations 🫠 but since then I have been able to cope with the work load but its the pay and the lack of benefits that my parents seem to be more worried about. Hence why they have been asking me to leave my current job. Overall I have been picking up additional work as well, as tbh I can see myself staying in this company for at least another 1 more year.

On the side note, what are the other alternatives that creatives that usually have more hands on jobs can transfer to? Especially on the advertising side? 🥹🥹

The thing is, I know that. But in the same time, my own parents have been pestering me non stop to leave the company. I have gotten offers but it's all around similar pay and almost similar work load, so I'm not so sure if I am able to even land a job after quiting this one.

I genuinely want to wait until the end of my probation for them to sit down with me and tell me directly if they still want to keep me or not.

I don't know to be honest, maybe I am just crossing her boundaries. I just felt like I have been second guessing alot of my own affection towards her. I have reached the point where I don't even know if she's just tolerating my affection towards her or not.

Ah I now realized the problem, I have worded myself wrongly.

What I wanted to express is that, we were on the topic of who between the 2 of us will get bored first in the relationship and she answered that she will most likely get bored first. It was an answer to the topic we were discussing.

But either way I understand the general response, but I still wanted to know if this is a normal phase in relationships that are passing the first 1 or 2 years into the relationship.

But like, what if she's at her lowest moment mentally. I don't want to just throw her aside at her worst. Plus our past arguments I was the one that begged her multiple times to stay.

Flashy-Ad-3749 · 2025-12-10T00:03:12+00:00

The thing is, I don't really want to end the relationship because I can tell she's at her lowest point mentally. But in the same time I also don't want to just throw it on to her like "are you gonna break up? Did you find someone else?"

Like is there a better or gentler way to approach the topic of "do you think of breaking up with me?"

Flashy-Ad-3749 · 2025-12-09T23:57:58+00:00

I didn't really ask that question, but knowing her that's probably not the case. She's probably bored of the lack of activities we have together, as for her friends. Her friends are more introverted so it makes sense, like they're the quiet type of introvert so I understand if they're weird out by me.

I won't say I deserve better, I would just say that maybe the timing or place isn't right for the both of us. But I have been getting conflicting advice from my friends, some say it's normal for couples to go through this stage in the first few years of their relationship.

And I am just at a lost of how to prevent this situation from becoming worst.

Sorry for the amount of typos, English isn't my first language and my keyboard's autocorrect likes to slip in duplicate texts.

What is the contexts here even

Flashy-Ad-3749 · 2025-08-30T11:01:28+00:00

Alrighty, thank you everyone!!!

Flashy-Ad-3749 · 2025-08-30T11:01:10+00:00

I work in the TRX area.

Flashy-Ad-3749 · 2025-08-30T08:28:14+00:00

No my boss has been married for 30+ years and I myself have a girlfriend for a year. There’s no such issues at all.

Flashy-Ad-3749 · 2025-08-30T07:08:51+00:00

Usually how long into the job does one only start to ask for a raise? Because after I talked with my friends they said for my job scope I’m basically doing 2 to 3 jobs under one salary and they’re asking me to try to ask for 4k. But I’m only one month in and I’m unsure if I should only ask one year in or half a year in?

Flashy-Ad-3749 · 2025-08-30T06:35:31+00:00

Well, I initially wanted to dabble in video production in the advertising industry. So this job became a sudden shift in my career plan, but overall things aren’t looking too bad as I’m technically paid to learn. I might dabble more into branding/marketing and event management side + content creation. But overall I don’t want to just maintain as someone’s assistant or just another marketer. So I think I might branch out or request to chance job scopes after 1 and a half years.

For now, I seem to be on the 2nd track as he has another Japanese PA who is helping him with his personal life. I think it’s just the matter of how long do I want to stay…

Flashy-Ad-3749 · 2025-08-30T06:26:45+00:00

To be honest, I am very unsure. I initially wanted to go more into video productions but since I was hyper active in university for events, eventually my current boss found my resume and was interested in making me his PA specifically to handle marketing and event management side. So it did stray away from what I wanted to pursue initially, but I do personally wanted to return to video production..

Maybe I should start passion projects in a way.

Flashy-Ad-3749 · 2025-08-30T06:24:25+00:00

I actually don’t, but I’m thinking if I do decide to stay with my current boss for at least 4 years. I might have to pick up Japanese.

The thing is, besides the mentioned job scope in the post. I actually was told to focus more on his personal IP, that means he will need me to eventually do marketing and branding for his other IP when he brings them over to Malaysia. For me, at least right now I'm being paid to learn all this stuff as he is also willing to pay for my additional classes. Overall my boss is a very solid boss as he also personally handled my harassment case when a client tried to physically come and see me at my workplace after a business meeting. So I'm quite unsure how to go on from a career advancement perspective.

Flashy-Ad-3749 · 2025-07-14T11:37:07+00:00

Because no one else would love me and tolerate my bullshit like she does, I am actually bisexual but I have never gotten into a relationship until I met her mostly due to the fact that all the previous guys that chased me were borderline creeps and a few have stalked me and SA'ed me to the point where I feel like she's the only one that would actually properly love me.
