I would caution you to not burn bridges during the exit interview.

Um, the management job here, would be the LEAST stressful job iv'e ever had. i was in HR and had to RUN a factory of 500 on the graveyard shift includinng payroll, new hire orientations, benefits and EVERYTHING. i did a GREAT job. I also had a job runnng an apartment with handicapped people, i did the hiring, inspections, new hire orientatiosn. etc.

the management job here is sitting behind a desk, doing what i'm doing now with ONE extra duty. managing TWO other people


I'm cut out for about TEN TIMES more than what this job entails.

um, what attitude? usually people kinda care about their lives and careers and stuff and deserve to be rewarded for doing ALL THE RIGHT THINGS in life... like ten years of custome service experience, two bachelors degrees etc.

you're the one with the attitude.. are you saying people should just NOT WORK IN LIFE and just ROB BANKS?

I think you just answered your own question.

NOBODY wants a manager who can fall into an stress induced anxiety attack at any time.

YOU needed a "simple job" and you now have one, what's the problem?

Your degrees obviously don't mean squat.

You throw them around like someone should give accolades because of it.

An employee needs to be well rounded and a good fit.

Perhaps that job is not for you?

Um, the STRESSFUL job that i had that i had anxiety over was running a 500 person factory.

MY BOSS HERE did NOT WORK with me at the factory, and the JOB HERE entails doing what i'm doing now and watching over TWO PEOPLE. i had more responsibility than that when i was in HIGH SCHOOL.

so NO i DID NOT answer my own question.

this job is NOT STRESSFUL

I'm saying exactly what I said. With the attitude of 'I DESERVE' whatever job you think you deserve I'd have outsted your behind already. Obviously YOU think YOU do a great job and YOU deserve to be promoted because YOU have seniority and your employer sees things differently. NEWS FLASH: seniority means nothing along with the paper those degrees are printed on when you are an AT WILL EMPLOYEE.

Personally I could care less what you do with your life and your job, you want to rob banks, knock yourself out, I'm sure it is a less stressful situation that you could "handle" without the "anxiety" than showing up to work midnights in a secure position every night. You do live in an area that employment is 'guaranteed and secure'

You think people deserve to be rewarded for thir loyalty and degrees and service. Open your own business and run it the way you think it should be run. Then come back and tell us all how you promoted the most senior employee with no problems EVERY TIME THERE WAS EXPANSION.

I do OWN MY OWN BUSINESS and it is doubtful I would have ever hired you in the first place.

Also, I would like to know where you came up with this from what I posted originally "are you saying people should just NOT WORK IN LIFE and just ROB BANKS?[/quote]"
