I have struggled with my "new" job for a while now. I have worked for 2 months as a new media rep at AT&T Advertising Solutions. So far all I have learned is that my boss has got to have some type of mental disorder and is the biggest liar on the planet. My guess would be psychotic or bipolar?
I want to make it clear, this is not a joke. This woman is actually crazy and lies about almost everything. It has gotten so bad that I literately must question everything she says because 99% of it is total bull.
Working under this type of person has been difficult, and realistically damn near impossible. One minute she is trying to help you to your face the next minute you get an e-mail about how what you did, even though it was her that asked you to do it, will get you written up for insubordination which is grounds for termination.
This woman has threatened my job so often that I just stopped caring all other.
With this on top of the idea of being away from home 5 days a week is just not my ideal situation and not something I was interested in continuing.
There is another position that is better, premise. I see that as the easier job, more laid back and less time consuming with less travel. You have to think to yourself, would it really be better in that position than this one?
We all know there is no such thing as the perfect job. Every job will have its pros and cons but I saw premise as the golden job at att. You don't have to knock doors, or cold call at all. You are given accounts to work and you work them, you make an appointment with the business owner who was waiting for you to call because that is how it goes. Sounds a lot better, right???
IT TOTALLY IS!!!
I got to know the premise guys a lot recently and I truely know they all have their own issues, mostly pay. The difference is the grass really is greener on the other side...my boss is completely insane.
I will never again assume everyone has the same issues as me, the truth of the matter is some times things really are better, sometimes you just aren't in the right position.
Does this mean I will stay with ATT and just transfer to premise...MAYBE....
