I know I have talked about this many times, but I am thinking of looking for a new job. Things just keep happening at work that really upset me. I have been here for almost 5 years and feel attached as I started here as soon as I finished school and only 17. But like my H2B said, I need to be more mature about this. I can't just keep feeling like a peice of crap to them and they're never going to pay me what I should be paid. We could really do with an extra 12-15k per year above what I'm on now. Maybe I really have outgrown this place. Why should I be loyal to a company when they're not loyal to me. I work at a private company and and looking at going to a government owned organisation etc. The money there is alot better and it's alot more flexible and alot easier to work at if you're pursuing things outside of work. And you don't get as terrorized as I do where I am. And government owned organisations arn't as subject to mass lay-offs. Because the government like to spend spend spend.

So I think that there's no hurt in atleast looking for other jobs and seeing how I go. If I get offered something then I will cross that bridge at the time and perhaps my current work will want to match my job offer and pay to keep me. But I can't see that happening. And I have made really really good friends at my job and I know we will still be good friends outside of work.

So pray for me to have bravery and make mature decisions regarding my job / future.
