I am so sick and tired of my current job. It is getting so shit that I do not think it is worth it to continue much longer. I need some serious advice and need them quick,

I was told of my bonus for this year. I must admit, the amount isn’t too bad. Actually, much better than my original expectation. Perhaps it was because I got shit all from the last two years, but then again, more the better!
Looks like I can finally spend some money over Chinese New Year now!
A Rice Cooker.
What the heck, a rice cooker? That’s right, this is the crap I got from company’s annual appreciate dinner, yes a rice cooker. What’s more, its a purple rice cooker too!
My wife is a bit better, she got herself a BenQ W1240 digital camera. Well at least we can sell both for maybe NT 5,000.
As a comparison, our parent company Qisda offers prize draws including XBOX, iPads and so on. Maybe I should change company!
Anyway, something is better than nothing. I look forward to selling these junks.
Well, although its not much, but its something.
I won’t say the number , but in percentage term, but its almost half of the last pay increase I had which was two years ago.
It is shit, but better than nothing.
I am not the kind of person who would just think about changing job.
Recently, I have been contemplating, am I really happy with my current job?
Pay, average. Work load, huge. Pressure, yes and no. Overtime, definiately.
This year is also my fifth year tenture. Not sure if I should put it as a compliment, or a time to reflect what I have done for this company over the last five years and if I should work here for another five years, or head out.
Strangely enough, I took out the same resume which I applied for my current job. An outdated resume, of course. I started revising it, like a journal, I started adding different accolades and achievement from the last five years.
Saved the file, and updated on job listing website.
I am not happy with current pay, and want a better job with shorter hours. Maybe it is time for me to move on.
So Sick of My Job
I just hate my job now. It is shit. Perhaps four years is enough and I should move on.
Lost my HDD
Yep, everything from the last four years, all gone. To make things worse, the HDD I lost isn’t from the home computer, but from my work laptop.
This is a nightmare, it really is.
I received an offer from my Australian subsidary to work there.
Given the current exchange rate, the salary is double of what I am getting now. It is a handsome number. They even kind enough to offer my wife a job too, although the pay isn’t as good, but still higher than what she is getting now.
A great, great opportunity.
I contempated, but finally decided to turn it down.
Strange enough, although the decision is made up, I cannot stop thinking about it. Maybe in a few years time and look back again, then I know if this decision was a hit or a miss.
Second round of layoff happened today. Well, not that it wasn’t expected, but just everything happened so soon.
30% layoff announced, 18 people will need to leave at the end of the month, just before Chinese New Year. Some are good friends, and some which have worked together for many years.
Maybe I should be happy that my name isn’t mentioned, then again, remain at this company isn’t going to make me happy either.
Who knows when will there be a third round of layoff?
First day back from honeymoon, and company announced immediate layoff of 15% of employees.
A few of my colleagues, some are even good friends, were among the list. They had to pack and leave within 30 minutes from receiving the notice.
At that moment, for no reason, I hoped that I could be on the list. I mean why not? I get compensation for up to 4 months, and I hate my current job anyway.
Then again, what would my parents say if this does happen?
I was told there might be a second round of laying offs. Maybe I will be in the list then?
