Hello, I am 25 years old from a relatively large city. I have been working as a credit expert in a bank for about 2 years, I know excellent English and decent Russian and French. I have already completed the master's degree in financial management. Before that I went through the usual professions for each student - salesman, call center assistant, etc. Maybe someone who does not work in a bank would say that this is a good realization in the specialty, but believe me it's awful. Constantly some targets, of course unattainable, constant explanations to this and that how you will achieve the current budget, you are responsible for personal data, money and what not, quite often clients raise scandals, and to cover the work is hellishly boring, and the salary is below BGN 800 net. First of all, this constant budgeting and explanations kill me, after this monotony in the work and standing at a desk all day, and thirdly, office gossip is not tolerated. I forgot to mention that I'm a substitute, which gives me an extra incentive to consider leaving. I am already convinced that early in the bank is not for me. I have friends in other banks and it's the same everywhere. The problem is that I'm afraid I will be able to find something else that is well paid, but also in the specialty? I don't have a job ready at the moment, but if I leave I have three months' notice, which creates additional obstacles for me. I reluctantly walk and watch the clock every five minutes. On the other hand, there are advantages such as working hours and the fact. that it is still a prestigious job. But only those who do such work know what kind of stress it is ... I don't know, advise me. I'm very communicative, I'm good at sales and I have a booklet ... I've thought about a sales representative, for example, but it's still not my specialty,

There are so many professions that will be your specialty. You don't want to be an accountant, a manager, or anything like that? And when you become three, will it be easier for you? There are intrigues and difficult moments everywhere.
I don't know a single person who has stayed in a place they don't want to be and the story has ended happily. I enter that number. That's the way it is, not everyone can be a great banker, some people just aren't designed to withstand that stress. I think it's good to give up while you still have a healthy psyche and aren't angry with yourself for the choice. No matter how we look at it, people spend most of their lives at work, and if we don't like this environment, we will go crazy. There is work under the road and over the road, you will always find something else in the specialty that suits you better.
And if you don't care, what do you care about targets and explanations? Beat the number demonstratively. At most, leave faster than 3 months of waiting. Don't be humiliated.
Reading what you wrote is like I thought and wrote this half a year ago :) You are only 25, at this age young people think that "everything that flies is eaten" ... and I was like that and I did a blunder. There are disagreements in every job! And they are bigger when you are still new! Until recently, I was in the same situation with the difference that I worked (de facto, on my previous job) for 6-7 years. It wasn't in a bank (I won't specify), but it was still a profession where you sit at a desk for 8 hours. I thought it wasn't my profession, that what I was doing was pointless. And I started to get bored, to lose motivation ... and after a long thought I left! So ... I quickly managed to find a new job, which seems to be a calmer idea, but it turned out to be lower paid. I'm not going to go on, I'm just going to say that now that I think about it and look at things from the side, it turns out that I've had a good job before. And I miss her, more and more. All this reporting and nonsense was white bullshit. However, no matter what I have done, there is no going back! I'm not telling you "don't leave", just sit down and write down the pros and cons of changing jobs and the field in which you work in general. Think about the fact that you will still have to learn something new, to confront your head with new, unknown to you problems. It is different when a problem arises, you are boiling and boiling, you have experience and you know what to do. With a change of job you will still have to prove yourself, make contacts, you will still face new "disagreements" in the new job, and as I said in every profession there are some. In some professions you have to get up very early,
