So I’ve been at my current job for about three years now. I’ve never been crazy about it, but it was an alright first job straight out of undergrad. I was able to switch to part-time when I started grad school last year and have been planning on staying with this company until I graduate next spring. Management’s never been the best at being responsive (making me feel very unappreciated), but lately they’ve flat out ignored a time-off request, which has me expecting the worst. I’ve already signed an offer for a job I’m really excited for that starts next summer, but have been wondering if I should just leave my current company and work another part-time job until next summer. Is it bad practice to go into a job knowing I’ll only be there for a few months? Would my future employer care at all if they found out? I’m thinking about going through Robert Half and explaining my situation to them.
