Quote from: RE on Mar 25, 2024, 12:34 AMOuch. I think I held at least 15 different jobs over a 40 year working career. The best time to start looking is the day after you get hired.

Ouch indeed. I've had 3 different jobs....each one a new career....in my 40+ working years. I think I'll retire from the 3rd one, don't have enough time left for a 4th career.
Quote from: 18hammers:I suspect I am already frowned upon, as I have not attended the Friday pizza supplied lunch. I told them and was not kidding that I don't eat shit, I really don't. If it was once a year, sure to be social I will choke down a couple oily artery clogging slices but every Friday? They can see the lunches I have brought, lean deer meat sandwiches , assortment of nuts, homemade muffins, and such.
Screw'im. They didn't hire you for your social skills anymore than anyone ever hired me for mine. Sounds like you are in the same game I am...we get paid to deliver results. In different arenas perhaps, but it is the same game. We weren't hired to talk about social media influencers, drink on Friday nights yacking about the boss, commiserate over someone's personal problems....nope. Once skills are recognized, results delivered, they tend to be appreciated, and it becomes terribly difficult to ever get rid of someone like that over not going out with the boss for drinks and that type of nonsense.
