Am I the only Taurus that does not kiss ass? Cause I refuse to ever sell out my integrity and I just may have committed Political Suicide at work. There have been thousands of dollars invested in a program that may be dropped (a program that will affect us for at least 10 years). Why? Because management has no back bone has not met deadlines because they got to their positions by "knowing someone". They hire less qualified candidates because "they know someone". So our dept has met 4% of the goals whereas all the other depts are at 70 + with their progress in the implementaton of this new program. I am loyal, and hard working, but I'm out because I expect team effort. Well, when we have people working that are still training that do not have experience or are knowledgable-of course we aren't going to progress. Opps...I said that to my Director. I said, "I hope this a learning experience, we are the laughing stock of the University. I promised that I would stick through thick thin to get us moving, but I expect the right tools. You have not followed through your word and set us up to fail. I can't work here any more." I handed her my letter of resignation. I don't have a job yet, I don't really have a plan now. I just can't work there. I don't kiss ass, I just work. I'm learning that you have to kiss a little there and so forth, but I demonstrate my competence through quality of productivity. Its a reflection of me! I am beating myself up mentally because emotionally I know I did the right thing. Mentally, I'm like scared. However, I have always put money away for a rainy day, so I'll be okay financially for a month. So I'm scoping out jobs. :sigh: I don't like having regrets, I felt that what I did was the right thing. So I'm moving on. I do hate that I act before I really think things through. How do you learn to do that? I'm sure I could have handed the letter without the 2 cents. But then I kinda giggle and shrug my shoulders thinking "hell, I did it my way".

Do any other Taurys feel guilty for no reason at all?
