I’ve only hated one job. Just couldn’t see eye to eye with anyone who worked there (and myself was going through the roughest patch in my life, which played a big part in it) and was miserable. Luckily for me that was a spring board to many better days. But I hate changing jobs, even in extreme situations. But I left that guaranteed full time job for a job that was only temporary. But the temporary job lasted for a year and a half and got me so much more experience that I’ve done much better since. Being unhappy at work is like being unhappy at home. You are there for half of your day, if you’re miserable it’s gonna affect your mental health, and life.

Congrats my man. Hope it works out.

Because everyone thinks they can manage and they can't.

Bossing people around is not the same as managing people.

Changing jobs for many is scary. It's like leaping from a tree branch that has held you for years to one in another tree you have no idea if it's dead, sturdy, wobbly or stronger than the branch you left.

Yep, congrats, and you won't regret it. Left a job i hated for a part-time role i could barely afford but thought i'd enjoy. That turned into a full time role which i left to go to another similar role that i've loved since. I respect people who grind but it felt like a lot of hours in the day being miserable.

My first management job in Silicon Valley I sucked big time at first.

My CEO got complaints, saw what was happening and helped me immensely.

Like many first time bosses, I was micro managing the shit out of people.

From the moment I changed and followed his advice, I became a boss that had employees calling me the best boss they ever worked for and giving me accolades and awards.

I think the pimp is technically their boss, although you are the one paying them.

When I would hire people I would look for 4 key characteristics:

1. Passion
2. Good integrity and reputation
3. Believed and shared in our companies vision and services/offerings
4. Shared the same vision and work ethic as me.

Rarely failed me and only did if I hired someone not having one of the 4 above.

My goal is to show them the process, get them to follow it and execute.

You and The Franchise need to get together and get some new schtick. You are like two parrots and I believe you both are jealous because that's both of your responses to everything I post.

Lmao go cry to your hooker about it
[Reply]

How do you tell if someone has these characteristics, before you hire them?
[Reply]

You don’t manage people, you lead them.

You manage things.

I’m moving up again and I’m very excited. I like people and I like that people like working for me.

Interviews aren't everything, but you can get a sense of most of those between interviews and reference checks.
