Entry: Job hopping! Dec 25, 2003



Job hopping! Is that wrong? I am quite often tormented by questions of right and wrong when I shift jobs. Am I right in quitting one job because I have got a better offer elsewhere, or should I be faithful to my present employer and stick to my current job irrespective of the pay and benefits that I get and do not get. Some friends say I am right in looking towards my future, that all employers are leeches in some form or other, that I need not have any consternation of quitting one job and taking up another; that it is a rat race where I need to survive by grabbing, etc…. But where does one stop? Or perhaps one doesn’t stop until one is ready to retire?
Just sent in my resignation to my present employer. There will be a upheaval tomorrow in the office….all hell will break loose….there will be a lot of accusations all round…my boss claiming I am letting him down….my colleagues asking me to reconsider….and yet others eager to know where I am going next and if there would be an opening for them where I go….I have my own bag full of woes to unstring before my boss……Hmmm…..God give me the strength tomorrow!
