What was your shortest term of employment?

I started a new job yesterday and lasted a whole 3 hours before realising I couldnt work there. Can anyone else do worse 🤦🏼‍♀️

Wow OP what happened? My shortest is three months.

Two weeks, but I knew after a day I’d made a mistake.

Oh no you beat me, I lasted a full 4 hours in BHS 😂 The boss was too over familiar and made my skin crawl. I had another job offer from another company just that morning so it was an easy decision to make.

What's wrong with the job?

I’m a nurse and they were asking me to do things I’m not competent in which would risk my registration. On top of that they’d already messed me around with shifts. The previous day I’d driven 48 miles just to be told my shift had been cancelled but they’d forgotten to tell me, so nearly a 100 mile round trip for nothing. I did an overly dramatic “I can’t work under these conditions” 🙈

I lasted one and a half days in a new job. On the first day, I learnt that my admin job was actually answering the phone to people complaining that their road/pavement was being dug up (to lay cables). On the second morning, I discovered that the rest of my team were out that afternoon at a meeting, leaving me to handle the complaints on my own. I didn't return from lunch ...
