    need help : got a new job but non technical

    quote Your fear, indecisiveness, and hesitancy to proceed all point toward your apparent suitability to a management position. quote why ? not necessarly. I am forced to go there, as I have troubles and I am afraid that my job will be terminated. So it is the only way out by now.

    Surviving through turbulences

    Thanks Mike. Basically I stick to that and to what you are saying. Helps a lot. Regarding job search, I will try to change strategy until I find my way back.

    Surviving through turbulences

    Mike, Thank you for your comment. It is my impression too. Then next question to you is : how to buy time then ? Getting a new job takes a while, that is a real worry. I have no problem changing industry. It might be that I appeared arrogant at some times. Is that sufficient to initiate such...
