![]() Randomly today my boss emails me and says I need to become a notary. I think it's complete bullshit as we have 3 notaries on staff, but if I have to do this I'm studying on the clock because **** that. My problem is, I don't want to be put in a position where I have to put my name on anything for this company because my boss is a convicted white collar felon and still has questionable business tactics and I don't trust him at all. WTF should I do?

![]() Sounds like you have two options: 1. Tell your boss you don't feel comfortable with becoming a notary. However, your boss could possibly fire you so are you ready to look for another job. 2. Become a notary. If you don't like what you are doing with that status at your current company, look for another job while you have the current one. |

or 3. Quit. I wouldn't work for a convicted felon who clearly hasn't reformed, personally. I'd be hunting for a job ASAP. |

I figured these were my only 2 options, but just wanted to see if I was missing something. I'll probably just go with option number 2 until I find a new gig.

Unfortunately I don't have the means to just quit, otherwise I would've already.

As soon as I find a job that affords me some of the luxuries I have here (as well as pays at least 15% more) I'm out of here.

![]() Nah not my thing despite another member on here bugging me for years to become one. I'm looking for a bigger/better IT Manager gig or project management/implementation type role. I do appreciate the offer though.

You have your PMP or anything formal for project management beside just hands-on experience? I could give 2 shits about the cert but in case HR decides to get all persnickety about it I figure I may as well ask ![]()

![]() Hmm. Dunno off the top of my head about an NYC office. I know we see patients in NYC though. I’ll ask. Doesn’t hurt to know either way.

![]() I worked on Long Island for almost my entire career up until 2015 when I made the move into the city, and I like it a lot better even if the commute is longer. Also my gf lives in queens so moving out near her cuts down on my commute and also allows us to see each other more.

![]() Totally understand dude. If it works out then it does, if it doesn’t it doesn’t. Will always try to do whatever I can for my fellow Ragers.

![]() Don't notaries have their own code of conduct? I think as notaries act independently from their work, you would be within your authority to refuse to notarize something if it came down to it. Maybe at that point you'd need the new job, but I don't think you can get roped into shady business dealings by either being required to notarize something or by just notarizing something shady for someone else.

![]() The only thing I'd be even close to qualified to start would be an MSP, and while I thought maybe one day I'd want to, the MSP space in NYC is so crowded I just don't know if I'd want to deal with the stress and 60hr work weeks for like 4-5yrs straight just to have a shot at lasting.

![]() Dunno about NY, but here in MO all a notary does is verify that someone signing a document is who they say they are. No biggie unless your boss wants to make you an accomplice to some forgery. ![]()
