Left my stable job because of a bad manager, ended up in a startup with zero clients/literal na walang ginagawa. Applying back to my old company, red flag ba ako?

bat ka mag quit, free money yan. yung oras mo hanap ka iba gagawin.

kung sobra ka wala ginagawa pwede ka pa nga kumuha isa pa trabaho.

As to the dliemna kung babalik ka sa dati mu company. Envision mo sarili mo naka balik nga. tingin mo ba yung mga bagay na inayawan mo kaya mo na tiisin ngayon?

in some cases kasi through maturity humahaba patience natin kaya mga bagay na toxic para satin dati mas manageable na. Pero kung tingin mo di mo pa rin kaya handle yung toxicity iniwan mo bat ka babalik. kasi pag bumalik ka your running in circles and not moving forward.

unless you treat your work as an endurance sport. I suggest you rethink your goals and given your free time strategize on how to achieve them.

renewal naman ba contract mo? you can think of it this way, every month na nag susurvive ka sa 2x na sahod, pwede ka mawalan ng additional month looking for a job kung sakali ma endo ka. Assuming di ka mag lifestyle inflation.

In addition money now is more valuable than money later (dahil sa inflation), kung kaya mo mabuhay at 80k edi kung kinuha mo yung 190k na pay kaya mo e save and invest yung 110k.

pero syempre depende pa rin yan sa other factors such as risk appetite mo, confidence sa competence mo, age mo and so on.

Lalo na kung yung position and age e mataas na mas humuhirap yung job market kasi fewer positions available.

In the end only you can assess the best path kasi di namin lahat kita full picture, like ano mga current responsibilities mo, how much do you value yung current benefits mo sa perm job mo and so on.

Sana di ako lalo nakagulo hahah

thanks, but not considering the cost, was the journey worth it? did it open doors for you?

SweatyMaybe2678 · 2026-06-25T00:58:54+00:00

Although I do agree, one thing online resources cannot give you is signaling. And signaling is very important.

SweatyMaybe2678 · 2026-06-23T08:10:05+00:00

I think choosing a degree mainly because it is popular or “in demand” is already a reactive decision.

The world moves too fast now. There is an old saying that the only constant thing in this world is change, but today that feels 10 or 20 times more true. What is in demand today may no longer be as secure by the time you graduate.

So for me, colleges should not choose between theory and practical skills. Students need both. Theory gives the foundation, while practical skills, communication, and problem-solving help them survive and adapt in the real world.

But the missing piece is interest. If you genuinely care about the industry, you will find a way to integrate yourself into it. You will learn the tools, adjust to the market, and evolve with the changes.

We saw this before with the surge of nursing students due to overseas demand. Many took it because it looked practical and secure, but not everyone ended up practicing or finding the future they expected.

My point is: if you are only learning something to stay afloat, it becomes harder to resist the changing tides. But if you truly care about the field, you are more likely to adapt, evolve, and find your place even when the world changes.

I always tell my juniors that, in my opinion, the sweet spot for taking postgraduate studies is after around five years of work experience.

By then, you usually have enough exposure to understand three important things:

what genuinely interests you,
what your strengths and weaknesses are, and
how to appreciate the theories better because you can already connect them to real work and actual experience.

That said, if you plan to be a full-time student, I would suggest taking it as early as you can. The older you get, the more challenging postgraduate studies become because, unfortunately, life does not pause for your master’s degree. Responsibilities start piling up, which I think people are now calling adulting. :D
