being tricked

In most states, employment is "at will". Meaning that you are allowed to leave at any time for any reason.
That doesn't mean there won't be financial consequences to leaving. Such as owing for any training, or other contracted services offered by the employer.
However, yes, you may leave one company for another, at any time.

 

Uhmm, if your on a contract, why are you looking for another company to work for?

 

How about a little more info as to your actual situation?

 

Your gonna be lied to by every recruiter that you ever talk to. Get used to it.
Doesn't make it right or good, just the truth.
Walking out on a contract with a training company may leave you holding the bag on thousands of dollars in fees, that no other training company is going to reimburse you for.
So, in that case. No, I doubt that you will be hired by anyone else, until you complete that contract.

However, without more info, all your going to get here is very broad generalizations, and that will be all but useless.

 

Correct me if wrong. But are you actually under an "employment" contract. Or a repayment contract that stipulates unless you fulfill a term of service, your responsible for payment of training?

Big difference.

Pay an attorney $75 to glance over it if you're not sure.

 

I was under an employment contract once. USMC... Quitting generally had negative consequences. Lol. Some people would still just leave and go on the run. Idiots. Some people just don't care about honoring something they willfully signed. You signed saying you'd honor it, so make your name and word worth something and complete the contract.

 

Welcome to our world. A world full of cheats, liars, and low-lifes.

Get used to it. This isn't your daddy's trucking business anymore. (or his Oldsmobile either)

If you are under contract, find out how much it'll cost you to get out of it. Then either pay up, or take it on the chin like a man and owe up to your responsibility that YOU SIGNED FOR.

You can always try a small local company near you, but if you have ANY financial obligation(s) to your current employer, they can mess with you and your credit. Wanna face those consequences??

Good luck to you, next time, be careful and maybe actually READ BEFORE YOU SIGN.
