      2/ First job post-college, in Boston. Worked in a big 1960's style firm (picture 1960s short sleeve white shirts, ties, slide rules). I was 21. Next youngest person was 35 or so. New city. No friends. No skill in making friends. Huge student loans. Work, sleep, pay bills

          3/ Several years later, a "startup" funded by a bank. Conflict averse manager who'd give you a task, then get upset and yell when it wasn't done "right" ("right" was never defined). Silently replaced at work by some new hire !@#-hole. I kinda shut down and just sat in my cube

          4/ Would've gotten fired if I didn't negotiate an exit (with copious documentation).

          5/ Worked for an online stock brokerage in 1999 or so, a branch of D.E. Shaw. Everyone there had 1500+ SATs ... and didn't believe in writing tests or writing documentation. I quit after 6 months. Passive aggressive boss tried to get me to stay.

          6/ "If you really want to quit...well, there's one thing?" what? "Oh, never mind. You have the right to quit. ... except...." except what? "nothing" What? "well, you signed an agreement saying you'd stay one year" I did? Well, if I signed it, I'll live up to it.

          7/ "No, you don't have to. I give you permission to quit." OK, good. Then I quit.

          8/ Anyway, there are a lot of crappy jobs out there. Some are inherently crappy. Others are just crappy FOR YOU. I can't say "quit any job you dislike", bc sometimes work is hard, and you've just gotta do it, to learn, to grow, to make contacts, and to make a paycheck.

          9/ If you're smart and - more importantly - you work hard and learn, you'll make contacts, and you'll get better jobs via friends as you get older. Figure out what you want, and work towards that. That maybe does NOT mean quitting your first job. ...at least not at 1 month.

          Replying to @MorlockP
          One of my night school teachers always said...”if you do not like your job...take active steps to change it” And he said that you should recognize that changing it might take time... But just don’t sit there and whine about your lot in life...
