Very true. Day 1 is the start of the brainwashing. However, I had to give it a chance. Mentally I was finished 3mths into the job. City manager promised certain things that never happened. Therefore, I did the next best thing and left and now am in grad school going a complete different in my career. I did a lot of relations skills that will help me in the future. But I will never work for a company like this again. Best of Luck to all who choose to stay and fight it out!!!!!
