General - Leaving a job - View Post

I've started looking into other employment opportunities and am already preparing my CV to send out once I hit some interesting job offers. I'm waiting for my current contract period to near its end and will start actively seeking a new job once that happens. For the time being I'm part of a project that I want to see through to the end, so that's what's holding me back for now.

I work somewhere that expects me to become proficient in a lot of new systems in record time and amass knowledge with almost zero guidance. I hate ambiguity and I hate feeling stupid...and this job has both in troves.
Also, I'm away from home quite a lot and it's eating me up. I can deal with high workloads, but not knowing constantly what I need to be doing, not getting any direction and unrealistic expectations of me are...damaging to myself.
