    New Job Doubts

    I think I feel the same way a lot. Family and time matters more at my age. Would be different if I was 21 of course.

    Well that’s what was said at interview. Talking to people it seems once a week or more is expected to some extent.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Agree with a lot of that. What I’d say about Burnham is he’s been entirely different since leaving the PLP. He was drab in the leadership campaign. Milliband as well got much better away from the LOTO office. I wonder how much Labours problem isn’t the leader but the circus around them. Also...

    New Job Doubts

    I think a large part of this is I know myself and my autism and how bad I am with change and new people. On the one hand I should push to work on that. On the other I should trust my gut I guess. Decisions decisions. Gonna take a few days and see what the counteroffer shakes out as.

    New Job Doubts

    To make things even worse I let slip I wasn’t completely happy with what I found to my new manager at my current place and he started grinning and saying he’d promise me the chance to work on whatever I want if I stayed because I’m key to the department and he’ll even try and get a pay rise...

    For balance I also hate Manchester. Just really don’t get on with the “travelled in Bali, did the three peaks, off skiing” crowd. I find I have nothing to talk about with them.

    Id hope being a billionaire would work against him but we saw with Trump that a certain type of voter sees that as being successful and a good thing rather than an out of touch thing.

    I think Sunak is a much tougher opponent for Starmer who’s main draw is “I’m competent” TBH. If I was Tory HQ it’s who I’d go for. Plus he’s the pay you to stay home and eat half price Nando’s guy.

    Yeah that’s the other side of it. Maybe I’m experiencing what anyone does “moving” to London the first time.

    New Job Doubts

    No I know. Just going through my process and like the diverse opinions on here. Talking to colleagues and family too. I had a similar thing when I was teaching. Was at a place for years, promotion routes blocked off so left for a leadership role but didn’t enjoy the team or the culture and was...

    New Job Doubts

    It’s hybrid once a week at first then once a month. I think it’s really driven home to me how much people and lifestyle matters more than money TBH. Thinking about starting the job search again with those in mind and seeing if I can extend my notice while I look.

    No I didn’t. Partly because the person who is my boss now hadn’t started yet.
