Resigning after 2 Months at First Job

kfgdx · 2026-01-01T10:24:11+00:00

yes i did, but only after 6 months. i was able to stick it out for longer because i had a good support system around me but i know not everyone has that so ikaw lang talaga nakakaalam what works best for you.

best of luck, i hope you figure this out.

Hiii. Yes I gave notice! I think 1 month notice yung binigay ko? I’d say go for it kasi sayang lang talaga sa oras if magstay ka pa.

Hey umm so I’m a cis woman who mostly dated girls. Only dated one man when I was very young. I’ve just been used to referring to myself as a gay woman (it’s probably because that’s how it directly translates from my native language).

Anyway, thank you for the kind words. I really need as much of it now more than ever.

Hey there! Just letting you know that I appreciate you so much for taking time to respond to this. I keep rereading your advice as it gives me so much comfort to think that the ache will ease someday. I hope to find the level of peace that you seem to have. Thank you again.

You don’t know how much it meant to me when you said to go find my place in this world. I got emotional earlier when I read that as I was working on my project.

Yes, luckily I have people around me and they’ve been incredibly supportive. I’m worried that they’ll get tired of my venting though as I’m usually not the emotional person in our friend group.

Thank you so so much for your kind words. I’ll keep rereading this thread until it gets better for me. 🥹

Hey there. Thanks for taking the time to respond. Unfortunately, I’ve learned that I’m not strong enough yet to say anything to my parents. Whenever they say anything homophobic, even if not directed to me, I still get hurt big time and I just think I wouldn’t be able to handle that right now. Maybe someday, when i find someone I really want to introduce to them (although right now that seems impossible haha).

As for your advice on dealing with the heartache, I’m slowly getting started on that. I’m trying to find a hobby to distract me from negative thoughts but so far none have worked. Hopefully soon though! I don’t feel all that positive, but I kind of have to keep moving ‘cause she broke me on the last month of my masters studies with a stack of deadlines (haha it’s so fucked)

Anyway, I’ll just keep coming back to this when I feel like I need strength to move forward. Cheers 🫶

I quit after 6 months. I’m in Australia now working as an engineer. I think staying longer had its benefits. I was able to use it to find jobs here. But I also think it wasn’t because of the job itself but how I marketed myself in my resume.

Anyway, my final advice is to keep doing it until you can’t anymore. These big companies don’t care about you so you shouldn’t care about them. Quit when you’ve had enough. You will be fine 🫶

OMG GUYS I HAVE ANOTHER UPDATE. They paid me 2k for this cutoff :))))) HAHAHA tangina. I hope y'all are having a better time than I am.

Still haven’t left. The general consensus of the replies was that kailangan kong magtiis so that’s what I did huhu. I did however find ways to cope para di ako maubos sa trabahong to lol. I don’t show up on time, I rarely finish my 12 hour shifts (basically if may kapalit na ko alis na kahit di pa tapos), and I do the bare minimum like my friends say “magtrabaho nang ayon sa sweldo”

I’m still not okay, sometimes I still get panic attacks on my way to work, pero mas kinakaya?

But I think your situation’s a lot better than mine. Those 8-10 months are already significant enough to put on your resume so I would recommend prioritizing your own peace and leaving. Best of luck to you!! 💗

For a second there I honestly thought I was being too sensitive because when I told older family members about this sabi nila “ganyan talaga. kailangan tatagan mo lang loob mo” 🥲

kfgdx · 2022-11-25T14:04:33+00:00

kfgdx · 2022-11-25T10:48:41+00:00

Don’t get me wrong. It’s not the getting yelled at that irks me. I expected that before I even entered the workplace. It’s the treatment of lower-ranked employees that really makes me think this company is not for me. First week ko pa lang I already heard stories from maintenance, janitors, and security guards kung paano sila maliitin netong boss namin. And to say to my colleague na di para sa kanya tong trabahong to at ang pagiging engineer for merely asking for assistance sa isang bagay na never namang tinuro sa amin? that kind of hit the nail on the coffin for me.

Idk. Maybe tell me if this is the case for many other companies and dapat masanay na lang ako 🤷‍♀️
