“Stay vs Quit” Battlefield

I bet for many it is a battlefield for many when it comes to jobs in all spectrum.

From
what kinda job to look for
what kinda job to accept/reject
what kinda job to hold on/quit

For me, I have been through this numerous times and you would think it shld get easier the next time round. However I found it difficult as always. 4 -5 mths ago, I found myself a great job. Well so I thought. The correct industry, the dept and job scope. But 4-5months now, I found myself wanting to give up.

Question: why?
1.Is this not the job I want?
2.am I just being plain fussy?
3.Too high expectation of what I expect?

Question: the prob lies wif?
1.company
2.dept
3.people
4.boss
5.me?!?

In the past I always thought that it is just me having plain bad luck or very conveniently blame on the company but somehow I am beginning to think that it might be me. Coz why it is that there are people out there who can last in a job for years or even when they hate it, they can still hold for such a long time. Whereas me, I can barely hold a job for more than 1 yr. the longest I ever had is 1.5yrs and that is working as a temp staff.

What is the limit of your commitment to stay in a company?

Will you quit becoz
1.somehow admin work finds you even though this should not be your job scope anymore (photocopying for your boss, relocation, raising request of purchase IT equipment, booking of meeting room)
2.there are people who like to pull rank (I guess this is everywhere)
3.you just cant clique with your colleagues
4.you know will always be a small “prawn” and you have no power (I guess this is everywhere)
5.you feel suffocated by the “hidden” rules and the lack of flexibility
6.no sense of ownership given
7.no direction of what your place is in the dept
8.you are treated as utilities player instead of key player

I don’t think I articulate this very well but this is some of the thoughts that goes through my head everyday and everyday is a psycho battlefield.
