Have you ever had a drastically different reputation at one job or city, than you did at a previous one?

[Extraterrestrial1999]

Drastically could be like everyone hated you, thought you were awkward, the b word, smug, etc at one place, and then in another they loved you a lot, it seemed like they would run through a wall for you.

Yeah, I think the people were just better

Yeah, but I changed drastically as well, had I been the same as I was in previous places, might have been the same

No, no matter where I have gone, I'm always seen in the same way mostly

Yes absolutely. The previous job I worked at around two years ago was a sh*thole compared to where I am now; my manager was a lazy, uncreative, rude and self centered prick who expected us to know and do everything, while paying no attention to our own training and then complaining how we were all incompetent.

I should also mention that he also only hired freshers aka students and people who didn't have much experience or knowledge of the job, which I later realized was due to him enjoying the feeling of being better than everyone. Furthermore, he'd also change my work hours without my knowledge or consent, making me work 10-12 hours, and despite knowing I also had classes and I wouldn't always be able to make it on time because of how both my office and college were located literally across the city, he'd deduct my salary based on how "late" I was.

Eventually after three months, I had to quit due to health reasons and even then, he wouldn't stop blasting my phone with messages like "you're the most irresponsible and childish employee we've ever had" or "this is completely unprofessional behavior. No organization will ever hire you and you'll have to come to us, eventually".

Glad to say, that that office didn't last two months after I left and the whole place was forced to shut down because our lovable manager was also involved in some pretty steep tax fraud charges. Womp womp.

Lol definitely. I dated the town whore one time and she spent the next few years slandering me and making as many people hate me as possible. She was a legit sociopath. It was already bad enough because of my job, but that bitch made it 100x worse. This is why I tell guys to stay away from whores.

I never had that issue in any other place I've lived.

Absolutely, I've seen this happen faster than a summer romance turning into a love story! It's like you're the lead in two different movies. In one city or job, you might be cast as the misunderstood loner, while in another, you're the beloved hero everyone can't get enough of. It’s all about the chemistry, not just between people, but between you and the environment. Sometimes, you just click, finding your rhythm and people who dance to the same beat. And other times, well, it feels like you're at the wrong party wearing the wrong outfit. Remember, it's all part of the adventure of finding where you shine the brightest. Keep embracing the journey and the many roles you'll play. Who knows? Your greatest starring role might be just around the corner!

This is an excellent question!

Yes, it's just like relationships - and, when you think about it, it __IS__ a relationship.

Some relationships are just not going to work out and so you get dumped (or do the dumping), but others are really good and your SO sticks with you.

nope
