What should I do if I don't like my present job?

What if you don't like your present job? I often meet some people who feel depressed at work, those college students who have just set foot on the job for a long time, or those who still have difficulty breaking through the bottleneck after working for several years. Let's share what we should do if we don't like our current job.

What if you don't like your present job? 1 Some people hate work, hate going to work, hate facing the working environment and people around them, and even hate everything related to work. This is definitely a loss. Think about it, you spend at least 40 hours a week, and you hate everything you rely on for survival and development. What's the difference between this and digging your own grave?

There are two main manifestations of not liking the present job: either complaining all day, as if living in hot water; Either broken pots and broken falls, no passion, numbness has become the primary attitude towards work. But how does this help and change your career and life? If you don't like your present job, maybe this article will bring you different ideas.

I often meet people who are depressed at work. This is especially true for those college students who have just started their jobs, or those who have been working for several years and are still unable to break through the bottleneck. The topic often begins like this: "My work is not in line with my major, so it is difficult to play." Or: "I don't like my present job." I asked, "Is there a better choice?" The answer is basically: "no" and my response is: "In this case, learn to like it."

In this world, it is of course happy to be able to engage in your own career. However, in all walks of life, 70% to 80% of people can't engage in jobs completely corresponding to their majors after graduating from college. Besides, I've only been in college for four years, and I haven't done well. Many people spend most of the first two and a half years emancipating their personalities and spending money. After a year and a half, I began to look for a job. In this case, to what extent can a professional specialize?

More often, I have met four-year universities, which basically teach three-year courses. One year in advance, the school let students find jobs in advance. Some technical secondary schools or technical schools are even more outrageous. Professional teaching lasts for one and a half years, and the rest time is euphemistically called "internship". In fact, it is to let everyone go out early to find a job. As a result, many students are weak in theory, exist in name only and have poor practical ability. Many technical school students we recruited from the equipment department can't even connect a socket properly. The up-converter in the loop is broken and they don't know how to repair it.

Think about it, what is the meaning of the so-called major under such circumstances?

On the other hand, even if you learn to graduate in four years of college, about 20% of what you have learned will not be used in factories or new jobs. In other words, you have to learn the other 80% knowledge and work skills from scratch. Think about it, a house, even the foundation has been dug for more than half, is still being rebuilt, and you still refuse to make some efforts to straighten the door?

The so-called correct position of the door is to adjust the ideological concept and train yourself to like the work that makes a living. Since 80% is self-made, why not try to like this job that can support the family, make a living and make yourself have a future?

In fact, liking can also be cultivated. For example, Lina Yu, a famous violinist in China, actually studied piano when she entered the Conservatory of Music. She also likes piano. Later, the teacher assigned her to learn the violin, and she also learned it. When I was at school, I worked hard and grew to like it. Therefore, it has become one of the most authoritative interpreters of the violin concerto Butterfly Lovers.

There is another aspect that leads to the misunderstanding mentioned at the beginning, that is, many people think that what they like is what they are good at. But in fact this view is ridiculous!

For example, a young man likes to chat with girls, play games on the internet without restraint, drink alcohol, spend money without working, have nothing to say, dream unrealistic dreams, sleep late in the morning and get something for nothing ... are these ok? Can you live with them? Can you support your family with them? Can you use them to build your own business? Don't! What we like is actually useless. What is useful is that I can! What I can do, what I can do well, that is, what I am good at, is what matters. Therefore, at work, when you express or think about "what I like to do", try to use "what can I do" and "what can I do well" instead. Another aspect that needs attention is that no matter what you are good at, what you like to do, or the skills or jobs you use to make a living, you must remember: keep investing.

What if you don't like your present job? 2 What is discount job-hopping?

My old boss invited me. Should I follow?

Richard was personally recruited into the company by his boss, Manager Zhang, after graduation. After three years of work, he gradually became the backbone of a public relations company from a layman. Richard really admired and liked this "master". During the three years in the company, the two people who get along with each other in a mentoring relationship have a tacit understanding and a harmonious relationship.

After the Spring Festival on 20 10, Manager Zhang was hired by headhunters as a newly established public relations company. In the days without manager Zhang, Richard began to want to fight alone. During the May Day holiday last year, Manager Zhang asked Richard out for a chat, saying that the platform of the new company was good and had gained a firm foothold. Now is the time to recruit people for the new company. I hope Richard can help him in the past, continue to cooperate and create brilliant achievements. However, Manager Zhang also admits that the company has just been established, and Richard's salary may not reach the level of the past, but there is definitely a lot of room for development. I hope Richard will think it over.

Richard's income is stable and his work is smooth on the existing platform. However, since manager Zhang left, he still felt some pressure because of the lack of clear guidance and reuse from his former boss. In particular, he recently found that he was still incompetent and could not take on an independent role. Staying here can ensure the existing income and get through it slowly in a familiar environment, but the development space is limited and the work pressure is increasing day by day; If you change jobs, you can fight side by side with manager Zhang, and there will probably be new opportunities for learning and promotion. The problem is that your income may decline, and you have to re-integrate into the new platform and re-adapt, which has certain risks.

On the one hand, it is a relatively stable "rice bowl", on the other hand, it is a new opportunity with many variables; On the one hand, it is a stable income guarantee, on the other hand, it is a discounted salary; Richard didn't know how to choose between the "money" scene and the "immediate" scene at the moment.

Expert analysis: define three standards and grasp the career platform.

Job-hopping is a high-risk behavior in the workplace, and every job-hopping has certain risks. It is wise to do a full analysis of advantages and disadvantages, weigh opportunities and risks, and make rational decisions. For Richard, there are three criteria for serious reference in decision-making:

Rule 1: Grasp the "noble people" in the workplace and bring you good opportunities!

Judging from Richard's professional qualifications and standards, he has worked for three years after graduating from college, and he is still in the early stage of his career development. He is not yet independent, so he needs to strengthen his study and improve himself. In fact, his former boss, Manager Zhang, is equivalent to Richard's teaching career and has given him a lot of help and support. At the same time, Manager Zhang also has a lot to learn from Richard. Therefore, when you meet a "noble person" in the workplace, you must grasp it well.

Rule 2: During the career exploration period, it is a good job to learn more knowledge and exercise more!

For Richard, who has just entered the workplace, the transition from a student to a workplace requires time and energy to study hard. Richard's priority at present is to study, improve his ability and gain high-value work experience, instead of clinging to the level of income.

Rule 3: In job-hunting and job-hopping, the correct concept of job choice is very important!

For Richard's current professional situation, there is an urgent need for development space, and a larger development stage is a reasonable and wise career development concept. The blind pursuit of salary will inevitably lead to the blind pursuit of the development of "external occupation" and neglect the promotion of "internal occupation".

After one-on-one in-depth communication with Richard, Richard finally put down the contradictory complex of "discount job-hopping", and was able to look at the rationality of salary discount rationally and the advantages and disadvantages of job-hopping objectively. Soon after, he made a decision and confidently jumped to the new platform where Manager Zhang was located.

After a lapse of half a year, I recently learned that Richard is very happy to work in the new company: "I have gained the full trust of Manager Zhang in the new company and my working space is bigger. I believe that I will have greater development in 20 1 1 year! "
