A dilemma
| Move the the new department but keep in touch with your friends???
| MOVE, I KNOW IT'S FUCKED UP BU THERE EXISTS THIS THING CALLED INTERNET THAT YOU CAN USE TO KEEP IN TOUCH WITH YOUR FRIENDS ONCE YOU MOVE OUT, I KNOW, FUCKED UP, BUT YOU USED IT TO POST THIS
| Hating your current job is reason enough to move.
And as the posts above me say, you can still keep in touch with your friends thanks to the big, magical thing that is the internet!
Jokes aside, I can tell that from experience, I've been working full remote the last 2 months, and we've been going out the weekends, even with people that quit a year ago.
| As the other g/u/rls said. Move. No job is worth staying in if you hate it, especially if you have an opportunity for something potentially better.
| Gonna have to throw my opinion in with the rest of the g/u/rls above.
MOVE.
Working 11.5 hours a day in a job you hate will burn you out and make you depressed.

That's the most overly anxious overthinking shit I've heard in a while. Bruh. If any of your "friends" view you as a traitor for choosing to be slightly more happy over being fucking miserable, then they're not a friend. That's the dumbest shit. If I worked a place I disliked and saw one of my friends getting to go somewhere they want to work instead I'd be happy for 'em.
Get a life and stay friends with the actual friends there. Don't throw away an opportunity like that.

| I can move to a different department, likely get a demotion, but work a job that formally corresponds with my education and most importantly work a normal 9-hour day.
Or stay in current department doing a job I hate, mostly for 11-hours a day (not managing to do even half of my duties meanwhile), but keep my friends and rank.
