what was your boss' reaction when you said you wanted to leave

Hi, Bill! If your boss doesn't want you to leave, what is he r she willing to do to improve your working conditions? Knowing what a warm and intelligent young man you are, I would think it would be very difficult to replace you, so of course nobody wants to lose you. If the offer isn't there, or is insufficient, it's time to move on, regardless of the boss's feelings. Someone will take your place, and probably will not do as well. Good luck with whatever decision you make. Joanne

I think different ppl have different kind of acting or reactions that might surprise us when we think of it as to us it does not seem acceptable or match the way we might act. We can not expect ppl to act they we do or to do the same things we would do. Some bosses has their own way of making everyone hats them :P one way or the other. I think you should discuss with your boss the issues of leaving and give your reasons and check with him they ways that need to be improved. I think it is not fair that you leave as you worked for a whole year on this and you should be the one to earn and see the success of this project. If you leave it and then someone else completes what you have started then you Failed and he/she Succeeded. This would be all based on your efforts but with a small difference. The success will be for the new person but if the project fails, they'll say it is because of "you" as it was based on what you did. So why let someone else take what is yours? :) I think you can make it, keep going :D
