Chantelle: I can't believe you resigned
Chantelle: I came back to work after my holiday and learned that from Jill
Chantelle: Why didn't you say anything?? :(
Rick: To be honest... I had no idea you'd be going on holiday
Rick: I would've told you, it just kind of slipped my mind at first and then there was no chance to do it
Chantelle: It'll be pretty boring without you around
Rick: No way, I'm sure someone will replace me in no time
Chantelle: Maybe so, but we haven't had many new people the past year
Chantelle: 5 people will quit and only 2 will come to fill in for them
Rick: Ah, true... I joined one month after you and it does feel like things have been more stagnant recently
Rick: But that's precisely why I had to do it...
Rick: It felt like there were no prospects for me
Chantelle: Well... I've had such thoughts too, but I'm not sure what I want to do so I haven't looked for a different job
Rick: I got a good offer so it was only natural, I couldn't refuse and stay
Rick: The company is going to the dogs, who knows when they'll have to wind up
Chantelle: Don't say that... do you really think I should start looking for something else?
Rick: I don't think it'll get much better... the economy is good right now yet the results aren't very optimistic
Rick: So yeah, if I were you I'd definitely start searching just in case
Rick: If I managed to get a good contract, I'm sure you will too!
Chantelle: I hope you're right, though I'd rather just stay for the time being, life's been stressful enough...
Chantelle: But I guess that's how things are, I'll try to be on the lookout for offers
Chantelle: Thanks for the encouragement and advice
Rick: No problem!
Chantelle: No vacancies at your new company, by any chance?
Rick: Not at the moment, but I'll let you know if I learn something!
Rick quit his job. He felt the job didn't offer him any developement perspectives. He got a proposition from another company. Chantelle considers changing job too.
