I’m done with my manager. I’m an entry level financial analyst and this is my first full time job. I’m very open to learning and I ask lots of questions but every single time I ask, he responds with condescending comments like “that’s common sense.” I’m over it, what can I do besides leave because I love my company.

I like the idea above of documenting these instances. If you're too frustrated of course, just leave, because whether you document instances or not the other course of action is to go through HR. In my experience, that's too much of a headache.

Have you tried talking to them? Or talking to the person above them? I am so sorry you are dealing with that.

How do I leave my role as someone on the talent team. I am on a small recruitment team of only a few people, who connect daily.

I want to put in at least a two week notice, but will continuing my work after that be weird?

My natural instinct is to assume rejection if I have conflict with a partner or don’t think my feelings are reciprocated. I’ll try to bring it up with them, but I’ll say “if you want to end this feel free” so it doesn’t hurt me (and they can say what they really mean instead of sugarcoating). Someone told me today that they just assume I’m not interested because I always seem to “run” but I’m not sure how to bring up problems/feelings otherwise. How do you approach these hard questions?
