I was supposed to have my second interview at Raytheon Technologies Corporation. I got an email three min before saying that they had a surprise fire drill and they had to evacuate the building and they needed to reschedule for next week. Do I need to to wait for them to reach back out or can touch base with them tomorrow? I don’t want to be obnoxious. 😅

I’ve been there. What helped me was having honest conversations with a few teammates. Some were already job searching too. Real friendships survive new jobs… and you might even help each other escape.
You are pretty normal to be honest. The devil you know is better than the one you don’t and change equals risk. You cannot let the past get in the way of your future.
You will make new connections and those you have today, if worthwhile and not mere convenience, will carry on regardless where you land. If not then they were not real friendships. Merely acquaintances that worked at the same place.

Absolutely felt this! I think you have to realise that the people will always be there if you want them to be, I’ve kept a few friendships from previous jobs

Well that depends if it’s platonic or not maybe
This was me at the company I just left. I had the absolute best coworkers, and we all got along so well. It took them sitting me down and telling me I deserved better for me to realize I couldn’t stay just for them. We’re still friends to this day.

100% I stayed at a job longer than I should have because of my coworkers. It made me realise that they’re friends who I can see outside of work though
