This study shows the laboral route of those managers, since the moment before his start at the public service until present days, as a way of articulating the dimension job and subjectivity. The methodological and theoretical approach was made by psychosociology, in which it considers the subjects as double social and psychic determination, in addition to adding the social scene in the dynamics of the man-work relation. All the information was obtained through the recollection and analysis of the life histories of two four ex-public managers of the state of Rio de Janeiro who distanced themselves from management positions. Considering the managing experience as an important mark on their trajectories, the analysis comprehended the public manager before his management role, since the process before his entrance to the public service, on family history, understanding it as active participant on their trajectories building. The analyzes showed that the labor trajectories are constituted by the affective bond. This link is present in the trajectories from the previous process to entering the public service, in the family history, understanding it as an active participant in the construction of its trajectories. It is also from the point of view of affective involvement that the subjective adherence of public managers to their work is constituted. So, besides they had got off from the role, at the subjective plan there was no rupture with the management because the managing process still being part of their lives and defining who they are. So, they are not ex-managers, the affective bonding continues in relation to the State, and they expect one day to return to the management role. Lastly, it was found a continuity of the trajectories, that refers to the accumulation of experiences, knowledge and recognition, which allows continue the building of the being public manager. The continuity is also related to family support that they have and "technical" capacity, as they believe in their own merits to return to work as public managers.
