The same heppened to me. I started to work in a coffeeshop on 2018 and the owner (who happened to be a friend of mine) never gave me the extensive training he promised. We also lacked many things in stock because my boss was forgetful and preferred to do other things rather than be a coffeeshop owner. He was unpunctual, a lier, oblivious of his own mistakes... But one virtue that he had was his natural charisma, so a lot of people liked him. Little by little he lost respect in my eyes and it became harder to work for him. I waited six months for the training, but it never came and then I began to lose interest in my job and feel lots of apathy towards it. I loved the coffeeshop and the coffee environment, but finally I ended up leaving the place after 1 and a half year because I was making no progress and felt miserably. I made one big mistake: I put all my hopes in learning from him, even though I was self-taught in many other areas. A year passed... And one day he called me because he needed a barista for a week, so I came back and ended up staying for whole year and a couple months. But this time I made sure to learn by myself all that I needed in order to succeed as a barista. I created a 250 words coffee glossary, a handbook for baristas, and a training system of my own. What was the result? I became senior barista and official trainer. I trained 3 baristas (one happened to be my girlfriend), but one year later I left again, this time cause I realized that having a boss like that was making me mentally sick and was impacting negatively many areas of my life. I opened my own coffeeshop with my girlfriend and one of the baristas I trained. It's been 8 months since we apertured and at this moment we are well settled. We have a base of clients, delicious beverages ane food, lots of hopes and dreams. My ex-boss no longer talks to me, but that was the price I had to pay in order to keep my mental sanity and grow.

There’s no employee loyalty anymore. I worked as a professional engineer’s apprentice from 2000-2004. The best advice he ever gave was, “Unless they (the employer) are violating your civil rights or safety, get what you can from them then get the fuck out! There’ll always be other opportunities.” I’ve always lived by that mindset and have gained experience that helped me find work in non-related industries.

As I still lived at home, I couldn't return without the family knowing I'd skipped, so I sat in a Walmart parking lot. It was cold as it was winter, and didn't make me feel better about my life, lol. I usually quit jobs around the time of tax returns when I have some money to get me by for a bit, and that's what I did.

Sure , the Overtime is nice , but what price are you willing to pay for your own mental health and time missed with friends and family ? It’s a daily question of whether it’s worth it . I guess you just lie to yourself to make that check until you just can’t take working with people too stoned to form a logical argument. How long can this be tolerated ? About a year .

Got told off for doing that without orders despite it being my orders. When my orders are vague and they get mad when I do literally anything there isn’t much for me there. “We offer freedom to our employees to fix issues when they see them.” Gets pissed when you fix an issue without getting told to, gets pissed when you report an error without fixing it, doesn’t get pissed if you never do your job. They literally told us how to work at the helpdesk in case we had nothing to do. So I get bitched at for doing helpdesk when I have nothing to do. Frankly it is hard to respect the arbitrary whims of such a disconnected chain-of-command.

These are a couple of hard lessons I learned from my last disaster of a job: 1. Your boss/ supervisor incessantly micromanages you then complains about doing so afterwards 2. Puts you on a PIP only after being in the job for a few weeks 3. Disciplines and berates you or any other employees in front of others 4. Has no clear plan on how to train you properly and just decides to “throw you in the fire” as a way to train new employees 5. Openly discusses personal/ private info about fellow co-workers (and/ or about themselves as well!) 6. Talks about how eager they are to hire a ton of staff to help w/ the workload -but ultimately fails to do so 7. Admits to firing someone who had a significant disability (I would also refrain from disclosing any MH disabilities/ conditions esp if you live in an “at will” state) 8. Refuses to acknowledge or work to resolve your concerns/ struggles that make your job more difficult 9. Overly criticizes or chastise you over a small/ simple mistake (esp when you’re still new) 10. Doesn’t offer health insurance and pays you below market value in a recession

Dealt with a similar situation. Job was under paying while advertising false work ads. Claiming to have so much career opportunities. Had to pay for company uniforms. Couldn't provide proper uniforms. Worked during my lunch break. Improper breaks. And any time they tell us there is mandatory training we have to complete. We pay out of pocket to do the training and dont get paid to do the training on our days off. I continued to challenge the supervisors every step of the way. They tried to talk down on me. And told me I was becoming a problem due to me knowing my work rights. I became a target. Caught the main supervisor in a lie. That bit him hard in the ###. Tried to warn them. Gave them a lifeline. They hung themselves. Now the company is being investigated. Facing serious work violations and its not looking good for them at all. They screwed up and it honestly could of been avoided. More concern trying to save a few bucks instead of following state laws. My advice to anyone dealing with a shady company. Research your work rights. Document everything. Time, dates, text messages. Shiw proof that you tried to reach out to supervisors to fix the situation. If they dont care like my old job. Show that to the labor board. Talk to an attorney. The company is now facing a class action lawsuit.

He said they were starting him a 25 an hour which was a huge pay increase. I immediately said I know of that companies reputation and they aren't going to employ him for long. Sure enough a month after he got the place fully staffed and running they gave him an assistant manager. A month later they let him go and promoted the assistant to his position for 18 an hour.

When workplace bullying is happening and management does absolutely nothing about it, even suggesting that you are the problem. Bonus points if you happen to be neurodivergent. This was at a job where there were 3 of us who were targeted by the same 2 female members of staff - myself who at the time was a mid-20s female, a male in his 50s, and a female in her late 40s/early 50s; my final straw came when one of the 2 female members of staff was due to have 2 days off but she only told me about it the afternoon before. Problem was that when she was off I had to do her job as well as mine whereas when I was off my job got shared amongst everyone else. Add that to the fact that the 2 female colleagues were practically cackling when they were telling me, I wrote my resignation letter as soon as I got home and gave it to my manager the next morning. She didn't care, and all 3 of us who were targeted had gone within a year of when I joined, me being the last one.

Procedures have absolutely no instructions addressing this.. Trainer says take class from Bill of Lading. Manager says take class from Invoice.

I really needed the job, but I started to think fast food would be better even though this job was at least within my field (chemistry). I finally confronted her (in a nice way) that it wasn't working. We went to boss and discussed my training in the second department I was supposed to train in before hers. It actually worked, then I went back to training with her very successfully. Didn't last a year past that time, but feel I contributed well. Definitely left under good circumstances. Was offered a significantly better job elsewhere that I couldn't turn down. I know I wouldn't have fared as well at the future job's interview without making that effort, and I left that previous company knowing I would be hired back if a mutually beneficial situation came along. So glad I stepped back from that horrible situation to see a way forward. I know many situations do not allow for that, and I didn't think that one did, but am so glad I asked if we could work it out. Win-win even though I wasn't there long.

But then low and behold a new manager comes into the picture and begins micro-managing me, despite the fact that even I worked at the company longer than they did. At one point I was given a warning over the way I did something by this manager despite all my previous years of doing this method without any problems. When I told them I didn't appreciate the way they were talking to me, I found myself getting written up for "disrespect" (I was being firm, but reasonable, and not being disrespectful at all!). I went to the manager's boss about their behavior, and the boss said they understood and would address it, but that clearly never happened. That was when I realized I wasn't going to be there anymore. Thank goodness I got out of that place!

This happened almost everyday and I usually ended up staying until 5:30PM. The final stray was me working on a project for a whole month staying til 9PM on Fridays and the project did not progress due to her micromanaging and not grasping the concept of the project, literally, and I had to rework the project multiple times for her to understand. When I spoke to her about staying past 5 and that month I felt that was wasted, her response was I never asked you to stay past 5 and was this something we need to address now or can it wait because she did not have time? I gave so much of my time as an employee for it to end with her not having time for my concerns. Needless to say, I put in my two weeks the next day.

I got a full time , 50% pay increase, full bennies, State job the next day . Lit a fire under my ass! I quit ol job 2 weeks ago, yesterday was my last day. Don't look back.

Don't quit, get fired. You'll qualify for unemployment if you get fired but not if you quit.

Usually I'm hard headed and it takes several of these to compound and force me out. #1: I spent a year as "Acting Manager" of my team. All the responsibility without the pay and it was arguably the most difficult team to run in my division; 4-times larger than any other team. #2 I then went through a period where I had 4-bosses in less than year. And the last boss didn't like me. Up to that point I had stellar reviews. In less than a month Boss number #4 tells me a suck and threatens me with termination of I don't voluntarily transfer. #3 Role they forced me into was not one I was interested in and required a ton of travel which completely screwed up my work life balance. I went from Engineering to Project Management. #4: this happened while I watched as people with far less experience and skill get promoted over me.

I'm a "slow boiler". I tend to be very patient, flexible, and analytical with situations. I often don't even realize that the situation really is bad (instead of thinking, "well, maybe this or that can make it work") until my emotions punch through. They take their time, but once they arrive at the forefront, they're overwhelming. Pretty much my work history is more about cutting myself slack and recognizing how analytical thoughts have subtle emotions synced to them giving me warnings than it is about problem solving the external situation (by the time I have to put serious additional thought in, it's because viable options failed--you're up against people who are determined to make things fail).

Over my dead body! I will fight the demons till my death. I didn’t work so hard to learn all this only to be railroaded with a stupid tracking system. I never knew about intended intended AI based attendance I mean are you kidding me? It’s just you would not believe what I just saw like they have you monitored. They might as well put the mock of the beast in your hand. Well I’m fighting them because I am going to prevail that’s that, and if they fire me because of the stupid three minute tracker literally like the carbon footprint, world economic form, I swear call communist definitely not fabulous. I’m telling you this is sickening and I just saw it and I am not gonna put up with it because I now know why my boss is so damn miserable and he never wanted to get to know me it’s because the turnover is so horrible with this company. It’s ridiculous they railroad you out, but why would they be hiring someone a town over?and they’ve been looking for someone for all very very very, very, very very very very long time? It’s because they don’t train you at all. They had sent you an electronic health record that you’ve never seen in medical office and you don’t even know where the icon is to find a patient OK I prevailed I pulled through with the disability many many of them learning and this is true I’m 47 and I’m not gonna take this. I know what firing means. I know what PIP is. I’m done.

Last minute mandatory OT is really tempting me to leave my current role. Its always the same pattern recently too. We start off the week being told we are back to 8 hour shifts, then Wednesday roles around and its all like lol just kidding now we are doing 10-12 hour shifts with Saturday tacked on too. Oh and as a bonus I'm working 12 hour shifts M-F next week too. Seems like they can't get enough temps to show up or stay long enough so the loyal people here always have to pick up their stack. Don't know if its just this place or the warehouse world in general.

When the employer used to pay for overtime and then down the line stops paying you for overtime but still expects you to work the extra hours for free! When a lot of staff all leave at the same time and the new hires expect you to do their work for them.

Thanks for posting. One thing I have learned is talk to people who have work/worked there. You can learn a lot. Also Google Reviews on companies before applying.

These comments make me realize that I do actually work for a good company. The upper management is nice to us and the benefits are decent. The problem is that the pay is not very good-for anybody, not just for me. I’m in management and making 35,000 which I’m not able to live alone on. I don’t even want to think about the people at the bottom making $11/hr. That is not livable whatsoever and honestly laughable. No cost of living increases either. I did have to start taking antidepressants last year because of the stress, and I do really want to leave, but the problem is I actually think I work for a relatively good company so I’m worried a new job would only be worse and I wouldn’t be able to handle that…

So your channel and this video showed up in my feed today and after watching it I was a bit amazed at how many "boxes" my current employer checks with regards to this list.

#7 is a big one for me. After I was fired from a job, my boss before that one fought tooth and nail to bring me back, which he did. Later on they laid him off while the company was going through a merger. Needless to say I quit again. This was more than just looking out for myself and thinking if they did that to him imagine what they'll do to me. This is a guy who saved my butt when I needed it the most, batted for his guys every time and I consider a friend.

my last job was great until a reorg happened and I was suddenly demoted "on paper" but given more work in reality. I have a niche skill that is still in high demand so it didn't take long to find another job that pays more. Hopefully the company I work for now won't pull the same shenanigans in the future but if they do, I'll be ready for the next gig.
