[QUOTE="winglas, post: 980329, member: 41325"] "Many are currently bentover (although they don't admit it or if they do, won't accept personal responsibility and make an exit plan in advance of the impending changes) The reason I've continued to post here is to help those who have some prospect of saving themselves to get them motivated to find something else and get out before the change drags them under." Trust me, Ive been trying to get out and will continue to do so as im sure many others are, but its not as easy to do as it seems. As a fresh graduate my experience wthin my degree field is limited, and even though Im qualified for the positions im applying for I think its important to keep in mind that there are many, many others who have years of experience who are also competing for the same positions. And its not like this just for me, there are many others within Ex and everywhere else that are facing the same challenges. I know at my facility from the outside looking in it looks as though ive "bent over" because Ive taken on extra training, titles, and responsibility but its all been strategically done to compliment my degree field and (hopefully) add to my experience level thus benefitting my search for work elsewhere. Does my senior know this is part of a strategy? Of course not...he thinks im good as gold and loves me to pieces for helping out the facility (and in the end him), but at least he is a decent human being that I halfway like being around unlike my manager.
