I don't have much of a choice but to stay for now. I'm just worried that my company won't last to the end of the year so I want to find something! I can find a job at this time of year, but come October when there's snow on the ground, construction stops and nobody hires technologists anymore until spring. If we go bankrupt I won't get anything. Employment Insurance only covers 60% of my wage and that won't cover my mortgage.
We have a really promising young engineer set to take over management of our office when the current managers retire. I think the only thing that will really save us now is them retiring more quickly because they're basically running us to the ground. We don't get paid enough, and the managers are never even HERE to make sure things are running smoothly.
I really hope she can take over soon. I'd be comfortable here if she did. I'm comfortable talking to her. She's a perfectionist and great to work with. I think she could really turn us around. But who knows what will come of the company before she gets a chance.
