Job after getting sacked?

What parts of the role are not for you?

The direct contact with people? The workload? The pressure? Colleagues or managers? The organisation? Your confidence levels?

You need to look more closely at the issue otherwise you run the risk of jumping from the frying pan and into the fire.

Has your line manager given you any feedback? I would have expected some as you are a new starter. Have you a review planned at all?

Think it's the sheer number of people, and often not very nice ones at that. Granted I could probably do with a thicker skin, but loads are shockingly ill-mannered. It's also poorly paid for the amount of work it involves. Management (and some colleagues, not all) seem to be very petty and love to play the blame game... I could go on. We're due a review soon, but I plan on leaving before then.

As for jumping from the frying pan and into the fire, that already happened when I accepted this job. I took it thinking the grass would be greener. Oh hindsight is a wonderful thing.

I think generally it's better to leave rather than be sacked (Assuming you can find another job of course).
You can then say, I tried doing the job and wanted to give it a good go but found it wasn't suitable due to x,y,z( obviously these will be things not in your new job)
If you get sacked you could see if you could get any temp work.
