Another work salad... for how long? Venting time. They want to extend my probation at work. Imagine you work for say, a motorcycling company, and you are what they call a Customer Success Manager. A vague title because you actually write communications, handle a lot of things like managing their community, customer service, beta test programme, ambassador programme, related logistics, you also code forums and manage any other unrelated project that they call "oh you took initiatives"... "right good" (underlying meaning, not necessary). And then they say, ok we realise it’s too much, so we split the role. Cool. And then... You’ll be either "communication" but you have to be passioned about motorcycles or you relate more to the customer service but then you have to be more technical to manage the first-level help desk. Me: huh? I am none and you knew that?... I never lied about my skills, degrees or knowledge. I have to take a decision. 3d job in 2 years and my 4th since June 2017. Damn. Oh and that was my herbal tea plus 93% cacao dark chocolate I bought in August. I need to get drunk.
