I guess most people would advise against going back to a job once you have left but i am a bit torn.

I gladly took voluntary redundancy in february when a new job came up(redundancy + new job was not to be sniffed at).Only trouble was i hated my boss in the new job and was almost relieved when i got laid off a while back.

At present i am out of work and looking for a new job without much success and have an option to go back to my original job.I suppose going back to an old job has some plus sides(you know the job,people etc but the thought of taking a backward step is depressing.

I suppose i just want peoples feelings on going back,can it work out or is it a really bad idea?
