Don't beat yourself up over this. Anyone on this list for more than a few
weeks knows that plenty of stories exist in the archives about jobs that
didn't work out or were bad situations. In my opinion, the people that were
hired for the jobs in those stories on some level really wish they wouldn't
have been hired. Your advantage in your situation is that you are still
employed and do not have the stress of having financial responsibilities
without having a means to get a regular paycheck.
