Resigning during training. 08:35 - Oct 29 with 931 viewswkj

I made the decision to resign during the 7th week of an 8 week training period this week. Essentially, this was due to several factors, inside and outside of the job. I am doing the professional thing, and working my notice period (1 week) - but the whole environment is bizarre. I am a manager, with less skills and access than hourly staff, and I am wondering about doing routine tasks in such a way that feels like a waste of my own time, and the company's money.

It wasn't actually that bad of a job, I just returned to a full time and high performance role after a substantial period of time away from work and I felt my health and stability fall off of a cliff without any real clue how to stop it. Also, from the inside perspective, I was massively out of pocket for the training (3000 miles) as their system for expenses is baffling - all signs that this job was a bad decision in the first place.

My question of the post, are there any schemes or things that help people phase back into work from unemployed, much like companies should do for employees returning from long term sick - or is it a pretty baron endeavour.

No real comment on your actual question - but if they haven't paid you your expenses correctly you can claim it back from HMRC - it will go on your tax code but you won't be entirely out of pocket. Not sure how they could get it so wrong.

Eseentially it comes down to the fact I'm in an electric vehicle, and their policies require fuel receipts, as well as mileage. Although electricity is cheaper to fuel (if using the home point) - it still isn't free and amounts to a fair whack for 3000 miles.

The company I work for uses an outsourced expenses portal, rather than directly with employees. As I was training away from the facilitators, it made it so I couldn't just pop up the hallway and ask them to help me through it.

Do you mean less skilled? Or skilled in different areas? As if less skilled, that was just a bad appointment, and not the job for you. In terms of processes, you should work to improve those etc, but of course, that won't happen within 7 weeks, especially if in training!

I've not seen any that will ease you into it - maybe you need to look for a job share or part time role to get some experience of working again. Depends what you do, but the education sector is often good for that.

I feel for you. Ive had spells myself where I think this is all bullsh1t and just disengaged. Its hard then to put yourself into it with the commitment thats needed.

I don't know what the answer is but sometimes its better to do as you have and find something that you can really get into.

I suspect you may struggle to fins a job that allows you to be eased in. part time work may be an option.
