Have you ever resigned to the fact that your career is now destroyed?

Yes I have but after the initial despair, you need to pick yourself up, dust yourself off and work towards making the repairs to your career and or reputation.  Without knowing any specifics, if you made a mistake that resulted in your losing your job, it does seem like the world is ending.  If it isn't a mistake that resulted in an arrest, you can resume your career although it will take time and effort.  If you didn't lose your job but your reputation has suffered, I would admit you made a mistake, ask for forgiveness and work hard to repair it through always ethical dealings with your coworkers and colleagues.  Just don't despair and do the necessary work to fix your career.

Oh man, I can relate.  My career path has been very rocky lately, to say the least.  I know it sounds trite, but this kind of helped me: My grandfather always says everything happens for a reason.  Hang on, keep your chin up, and know that everything will turn out all right in the end.  If it's not all right, it's not the end.\n\nGood luck!

I wanted to be a postal Inspector, but i was treated so shabby in the interview, I bailed out.\n\nI have no regrets and I do not dwell on the "shoulda woulda coulda"

NO, because you VOLUNTARILY demoted yourself in the same company.

Excellant. But I had to leave the job, because:\n\nI didn't gel well with the organization/I wasn't interested in the job/...

When I flew too close to the sun....\n\nNo, really, if I'm getting the jist of your question right, it was when I told my boss he couldn't cope without me because of his poor computer skills.... He told me his son was leaving school next year and could easily do my job...\n\nSo I didn't bother asking for that raise!!!!!!!!\n\nWings were badly singed that time!\n\n;-)

Career? what is that?\nOh, wait.....I am a professional loser....does that count?

No.\n\nWhen guys put the career first, they are willing to make too great of a sacrifice to get ahead.\n\nHe'll be dead at 40 of a massive coronary at his desk.\n\nThe key is balance in one's life. What good is making it if you've jettisoned everything else along the way?

Would I ever get into a relationship with a client?? Again? NO! It was the biggest career mistake I ever made. At the time, I wasn't thinking of my career - I was thinking of my love life. I know exactly what you mean when you talk about the chemistry - but here's what I learned about that. It wasn't so much the chemistry as much as it was the "forbidden" act to get involved with a client. I knew it was dangerous and flirting with that danger made the chemistry even hotter. But in the end, when people found out, I was frowned upon, others were promoted more promptly, and I gained a poor reputation. My employer then had concern that I was leaking information and became skeptical of my work abilities. I wasn't able to walk away from that until I left that job and started all over again - which sucked. Once that happened, the relationship fizzled, and the chemistry went away. So my advice to you - don't do it. Try to find a guy who isn't so close to work...you'll thank me for it a year from now.

Yes. \nI hesitated about what to do. If I decided to quit, I could not get any money. So, I made their life so difficult and the business so bad that they put me out of the company and I asked for a good exit package. With that I bought a small flat and set up a Foundation. I do my best to have a great working atmosphere. It goes very well.

Nope.  I personally saw them both fall and bury my office with the collapse.

I used to.  But then, one day, I was speaking with one and we were discussing our goals in life.  He said "I just don't believe in you any more".  My feelings were hurt, so I decided not to believe in him, either.
