Quiting Job After First Day

[luckyclover]

I just signed the contract on my first day. After spending a day in the office, I realized the job is not for me. I don't know if its too late to turn back. The things is even before saying YES to the job, I had second-thoughts already. But I'm desperate to have a job because I was vacant for a long time already.

May I know your opinions? What is the best move that I should do?

[diazflack]

Is there a bond or fee if you breach your contract? If wala ok lang, i suggest you message/email your employer.

[luckyclover]

I think there's none naman. How should I know if there's one? I'm not quite sure kasi.

[raito7]

you can quit. normally naman yung bond dinidiscuss sa contract signing e. kung wala napagusapan, walang bond yan. quit ka na lang kesa magtagal ka pa tapos ayaw mo rin naman. nangyari na rin sa akin yan. nagquit ako sa first week ko pa lang. downside lang e sure blacklisted ka na dyan. haha.

[luckyclover]

Blacklisted? :'(

[raito7]

I guess, pero sa company na yan lang naman e. Unless may balak ka bumalik dyan after a few years.

Anong field mo pala?

[jhepoyskee]

stay muna, first day mo pa lang, you need to explore muna, see how it is and sabi mo nga matagal kang bakante.

[luckyclover]

Balak ko muna ding magstay ng ilang days hanggang may mahanap ako na work. Pero is it okay ba na papatagalin ko pa yung work na sure ako na mag ququit naman ako?

[diazflack]

In my opinion po I think you should stay for a while. To tell you personally galing nako sa pinagdadaanan mo, nag AWOL ako after my first day of work because I felt that the work is a kinda boring(in my part po ito, not assuming na pareho tayo ng scenario). But after a few days parang nagsisi ako kasi wala na naman maapplayan na may matinong pay kasi yung work na naapplyan ko ay tama lang yung pay tapos petiks pa kaso yun nga lang walang career path. At the end tinake ko as positive experience, at hindi nako sugod ng sugod sa lahat ng job offer.

Ang sama kasi ng feeling na di ka masaya si ginagawa mo.

True. Ako nag resign after 3 months sa work ko eh kasi di ko talaga na gusto yung ginagawa ko..
Malaki nga yung pay pero para saan pa yun kung di ka naman talaga masaya sa ginagawa mo..

amen...

tama toh...
currently having the same problem right now...
luckily found a new job that i think would give me what i want...

going with my guts right now and indi na nagpasilaw sa matataas na offer...

[jirek03]

Resign immediately! Wag mo na patagalin, usually kasi pag first week sa trabaho daming mga pinapafill-up na papeles ng kung anu-ano.. kaya the sooner you resign, the less damage you will do (if in fact, plano mo rin magresign within the month). Saka para makahanap na din sila ng kapalit mo. My first job, 7 hours lang tinagal ko, pero no regrets since mas maganda naman yung company ko ngayon.

[CodeKid]

@sinokaba, usta? PM me kung saang company ka ngayon.

[Max_Buwaya]

it depends. kung dancer sa club ang trabaho ko o yung tipong nanggogoyo ng tao ang gagawin ko, magreresign na ako. otherwise, i'll give it a try. 'andaming walang trabaho ngayon at 'andaming hirap makakuha kaya i'll just count my blessings maski boring. otherwise, kaartehan lang yan. i can still find a suitable one later on. that's just me though.

[silverfei]

i agree with max_buwaya.. if your job is something that demoralizes you or illegal, i would suggest quitting from the start.. pero if you feel it's not for you, ***** tyaga muna.. 3 - 6 months.. experience pa rin naman maituturing yan.. tsaka kung makikita mo dami ng tao na nag-aapply everyday, you'll see that ur still blessed for having a job..

somewhere sa trabaho mo, i believe may makikita kang something that will inspire you.. see it as a positive experience.. consider that ur stepping stone.. pag 3 around 3 mths na and nothing improve, then find a job..

just my thought sir.. GL

[lifetime_beyond]

tama ganun din ngyari sa akin ako after ilang months lumipat na din ako agad.. pero mahirap din mag stay sa work mo na hindi ka masaya.. payo lang mahirap buhay ngayon hanap ka muna na lilipatan.. at kung mag rersing ka kung 30 days notice, tapusin mo para meron silan time makahanp ng kapalit mo... nagyari sa akin yan malaki sweldo pero nug first day ko.. kita ko na agad.. technology wise wala ka ma gagain... wala ko makukunan ng bagong skill kaya ayun hanap hanp muna na ma ok bago lipat

Tama. Isipin mo muna sarili mo bago ang iba.
Baka pagsisihan mo bandang huli
