My last job was like that. The individual who was creating so much stress for myself and others finally quit. The work environment improved for a while.

I am still at this much better job and it has really helped my physical and mental health.

44 years as a software engineer with the last 20 years at the same company. I started in a team of 18 sr. level software engineers, that over time was reduced to just me plus seven inexperienced off-shore programmers. My average work week was 72 hours, and I spent a good 15 hours a week re-working failed projects by the off-shore team. My VP changed my role to developing training materials, including CBT courses for off-shore programmers. The week after I started my new role, the head of Q/A called me asking why the Q/A error ratio for my old "team" dropped from 98% to 40% and upon discussion I was informed I would have to resume my old duties along with the new. I submitted my resignation letter 10 minutes after that meeting, turned in all keys and company materials, alerted system security to remove my access, left work to grocery shop and get on with my retirement.

Quit in your mind and your heart first. Make the list. Cry about it (if you need to, I needed to so I did). Set a "goal date" by when you want to have found another job (I did, my kids end of 2025 school year). Update you resume/CV/portfolio and start looking and sending it around. Continue to give your best in your current job. Take refreshers on the skills you have or cultivate new skills while you wait (that's what I decided to do). And manifest it. You really don't need courage... you just need to give yourself time to accept that your current situation is not right for you anymore and take little steps towards what a new situation would be. Best of luck! 🫂🫂🫂❤🩹💕

I spent the last 20+ years of my life at a fairly well run pure engineering company. All good people... then the new management came in, and the culture is dying. HR quietly released the EID policy indicating that employees may use the bathroom that identifies with their gender selection. As a guy, don't get me wrong, if a young lady (these days, they are all young) wants to come in and take a shower in the men's bathroom - I'm all for it. Not really. I'm just wondering how long it will take before some guy goes into the ladies room. This is how you know management is stuck on stupid.

I left my previous job because of my boss mainly and her decaying health, because she began forgetting a lot of things, throwing false accusations, had terrible mood swings and so on (she later got alzheimers) I was the youngest and the most "spoiled" as in she wouldn't pick on me almost at all, while she insulted everyone else and even choked a co-worker in front of me (the co worker was retired and working because she needed the income and her grandson she raised had cancer so she felt like she had to take all that BS because nobody else would hire her 😞). I would constantly complain about these issues and would get a "what are you? Their lawyer?"... I threw my resignation one day after an argument and it was just like out of a movie. I am pretty proud of that still 😅. Here it is a 20 day notice so I stayed and trained the one that was supposed to replace me. I then realized that the main reason I wasn't picked on was because she couldn't afford to lose me. She asked me 3 times to stay and begged a co-worker to convince me to stay. The new guy was paid almost 3 times as much and he did max half the work I did... Life lesson right there. I was too blind to see my own worth, was overworked and underpaid greatly. My co-workers are amazing people (we are all friends still and keep in touch) and we helped and learned a lot of things from eachother (still do). That is one of the good things a toxic work environment can bring. However... I would not make the mistake of staying so long somewhere just because of the people. I work now for a multinational company, my salary is considerably higher, my workload is decent and I can afford to take some time off as well, whereas my previous boss would panic when I would ask for 2 days and she'd call me in both to ask about something... I am also working from home now, which is amazing and even got a promotion within like 7 months. 😊

There is one easy equation to know if you jobs sucks. There are 3 basic factors: - people (co-workers and managers) - what you do - how much they pay. If only 1 is right it's time to leave. If 2 are right (any of the 3) it's usually fine. If 3 are fine, you hit the jackpot. To put this in simple wording. You can do shit with amazing ppl for nice money. You can do great stuff with pricks for nice money. You can do great stuff with amazing ppl for shitty money. But you cannot do shit with pricks even for great money. This will hit you long term. Also you cannot do shit with great people for shitty money. And cannot do great stuff with pricks for shitty money :D. Easy. At the moment I'm doing total shit, for decent money ... and people vary from project to project. Some are amazing, some a pricks.

Held 2 jobs during 2018 and 2019. One was a full time year round factory position.The other was a seasonal full time assistant manager retail position. Factory position was 4 10 hour days, Friday, Saturday and Sunday off. But only 1 half hour break for the entire shift. Any employee that had testosterone in their body, was listened to. If you didn't, your head was full of fluff and stuff. I'm NOT stupid and I understood a lot of what was going on with bad parts being produced. The icing on the cake was when I got hurt, and couldn't continue doing the job I excelled at, the attitude from them was very cold. And very upset that I refused to go back to the job that hurt me. My retail job has treated me well and I have moved up the ladder that I'm now in a salary position. They have supported me on my upward journey. I also have found another seasonal position do that I can make this job that fulfills me work. The pandemic gave me the means to be able to depart from the factory life and be able to focus my life on my dream career.

I like that work culture is changing in the US. Ever since the Dodge v Ford Motor Co. lawsuit, companies have been, more or less, required to focus on producing a profit for the shareholders. It is a terrible precedent that never should have been set. Obviously, shareholders deserve a cut of the profit, but a company should always be allowed to invest back into its workers and its products. Unfortunately, that legal precedent has compelled companies to care more about their profits than their employees and products. This new generation is pushing back on it though, and I am glad to see that happen. I also want to express the sentiment that, even as someone who believes in capitalism, that precedent was against the spirit of actual capitalism. Forcing companies to uphold a specific model is not free market behavior. A free market would likely shun such companies, but the fact of the matter is that we have no choice because the government made that choice for us.

For me, I started to look at job postings casually, mostly content with where I was and hoping for a promotion, especially after passing a big certification test. I noticed right away that the pay rate for my skills and geographic area are at least $20k more than what I was making. Alas, the place I worked denied me a raise bc it "wasn't in the budget" and then they started shutting me out (mostly due to a POS c-level who was a liar and a manipulator) so I kicked my job search into high gear and got out of there. During my notice period they announced that my replacement would make $20-45k more than I made, despite having the exact same responsibilities - wonder where the heck they suddenly found the budget for that? And also that the new employee would have the terrible person as their supervisor instead of my fantastic supervisor (bc terrible person is gunning for her too), so I guess that extra salary is warranted. In any case, I'm very glad to be in a new job that pays way better...probably more than they will actually pay the new person in my old position.

I love my job, but I might need to find another position because my employer is in contract negotiations with the client, and if I get a pay cut as a result after my pay hasn't kept up with inflation I'll be forced to go. Gotta keep food in the fridge and the expensive prescription kibble in the chihuahua bowl 😭 I'm trying to stay positive and look at this a a new opportunity, but this is the only job I've ever had that I haven't hated, let alone loved.

Hmm took me awhile, (Decades), to really internil;ize a thing my Father said. 1. Try and get your Bosses job. 2. If yoou don't want your Bosses Job, perhaps you need to be a Hireable employee to another company. ( I am aware that not all job workers work for those reasons. Perhaps the reason is it helps fulfill some other goal in their life not related to their work life. I would work 2 jobs sometimes. one regular 40 Hours job then on my days off I would work a part time job to save a certain amount of Money. Then quit the part time job. This helped me get 90 days of Income saved up). I Guess having clear measurable goals helps to clarify if it is worth it to chose one course of action over another for me.

I just got a promotion. My boss, who previously held this position and is training me, told me about the quarterly bonus. My counterpart added to the discussion. I was excited because I did not realize there was a bonus in this position. I've been with my company for 15 years. So, I reached out to HR today to get more info and was told if it wasn't in my offer letter, then we didn't offer it to you. OK, but WTF? I have been stewing all day. I'm not sure I can get over this. Help me understand. I am burned out and thought this promotion would be a refresher. I am now completely deflated. My motivation is at negative 11.

I apparently don't mix well with the masses plus I am a serial procrastinator so always busy though not accomplishing enough. But with a family to support, I tend to stick with employers offering stability and decent benefits. Fortunately the field I'm in pays well and since I've worked primarily for large companies in the hospitality industry the culture and perks have usually been good...........but I have colleagues - several who started at the same company I did - that are retiring now as senior directors and VP while I'll be working until I no longer can. Choices. Make them while you still have them. The only thing that matters in life is sharing it with those you love. I will never regret a day missed in a c suite..........but will always wish I had more days with my now teenage children. So, what does this have to do with this video? Any job that consumes most of your life is not worth it. I mean if you can do it while you are young to setup working for yourself at a better pace later that's great - but for a lot of working families - if not most - I don't think that is a reality.

Since I’ve been on sick leave I’ve been thinking and acknowledging that I should not work in a certain department at my job since my values do not align with the co-worker/manager who also has been manipulating and abusing to me. I asked for this thing: “please I am sick, please allow me to retreat from this work and allow me to focus on the work I do for my original team.” This is the one thing which might have made me to stay and just work in peace. Today, the talk quickly was about“leave of absence”. The boss didn’t want to talk about my request. Seems like they don’t want to meet me half way. 😞

I agree. I often think she doesn't realize that she is quite rude and holding that Cunt cup is really tacky. I do watch because I like to see what type of rhetoric is out on social media. I can spot an employee who is watching this type of thing a mile away, but what they don't know is that there is another social media boss giving a rebuttal to this type of spin. Easy to be rude when you make 6 figures off your social media post.
