How do you know you need a new job?

[Pig Pen]

My brother emailed this to me. He said he had numbers 6, 5, & 2.


10. Your outgo exceeds your income.

9. The most rewarding thing you did this week was sharpen all twelve of your pencils to the same length.

8. You're reluctant to be a Career Day speaker at your kid's fourth-grade class.

7. Everyone in your work group got a raise except you.

6. Your friends all have jobs that sound more interesting than yours.

5. You were late for work three times this week, but you just don't care.

4. There's a meeting at 3:00 to talk about the upcoming reorganization, and you're not invited.

3. Your boss keeps forgetting your name.

2. You constantly daydream about being a forest ranger.

1. Your company was recently acquired, and you spent two weeks worrying that you'd be laid off. After that you worried that you wouldn't be.

I had #1 -- it's ok, in time I no longer had to worry about being laid off. It's true what they said, though -- those who are left employed are often worse off than those who were let go.
