No matter what. Especially in the midst of very difficult circumstances. It’s easier said than done, I know, trust me. But not only will it protect your reputation, but it gives you the upper hand to control the situation." This is a great reminder. You're right - it's easier said than done, but I think it's worth it in the end. Kudos to you, Singla Ma! “One thing I’ve learned from this whole experience is to ALWAYS, I mean always, take the high road and remain professional at ALL times. No matter what.

I left a horrible situation in 2004, and while I was happy to be leaving the company, I had a great team, and it was hard for me to tell them. One of the women cried, too! I also acted as a buffer for my team, and took so much sh** to protect them that I felt like I was leaving them high and dry. I miss managing people and helping them develop and grow - it was the best part of that job. The rest of it was unbearable, and that was why I left. Circle your last day in red on your calendar - tick tick tick ... you're outta there!

Better to ask forgiveness than permission, right?" Wow. Can you hire ME where you're working next? “And as a bold risk taker, I eliminated processes/procedures they considered inefficient, incorrect, or unfair, then I took the blame if anything went wrong.

I never had anyone I worked with cry, but the talks with first the directors, then the VP of the dept., then CEO (which happened twice.) Eventually I was a mgr so there wouldn't be as many talks, but it always was so hard to keep saying no, I wanted to leave, this is why. I was so harsh about it sometimes, I cringe to think about it now :/ I hope you want to stay at the next place for much longer! I'm also curious what was so bad about your current place.
