Thank you i’m at the laundrette right now doing my washing now and the sunshine on the walk over was pretty good. I also have left over spag bol to look forward to for dinner. Sorry for the ideation. My boss just triggered me today and it cemented for me how she has absolutely zero empathy. And i just feel very done.
I am so sick of my toxic boss. I just want to quit my job but i’m not having much luck on the job hunting front. I feel so trapped and I don’t know what to do. maybe i should just off myself. honestly feels like the only way out at the moment after months of trying to find something else.
Anyone following little blurt yesterday about being headhunted for a new role that might only be one day week. I met with my former CEO today and we had a great catch up. The role is basically a consultancy at the moment, but the brand has some real traction to coming which means the consultancy will most likely lead to a proper role in the near future. The brand has a big emphasis on social impact and I think talking to my old CEO about it had awakened some long dead passion in me. I haven’t felt this energised in a very long time. I told my CEO how my current employer would be a hinderance to working for him and he’s agreed to try and work something out. However I’m of the mind set that I’m going to start looking for a job, probably part-time that is going to allow me to work as much as I can for this new gig and say good bye to my current toxic one.
Thank you! Hopefully I’ll be able to make a positive post in thursday daily thread later :D
Yeah, it’s also a role that I think might require more than one day based on what they want me to do. The brand is relatively unknown and has a great ethos but alos not making a ton of money which is what they want me to help drive. I definitely want to be part of the company, But yeah I think just seeing what he is after and then explaining my situation is the plan. My hope is i’ll be able to get 2 - 3 days which will tide me over and then find another role 1 or 2 days a week. Thanks for the advice!
Feeling a bit overwhelmed. I’ve hated my current job for a while due to the owner of business being a pretty toxic, uncaring individual. Last week I got approached by a friend who I know through a previous job to come and work for our former Creative Director/CEO who has started his own company. At my current job, I’m a casual but work full times hours. My friend has mentioned the new role might only be one day a week. I know my current employer will not allow me to reduce my hours and stay on as the store manager. I also know that if I decide to step down but stay on as a regular casual, she will be vindictive and most likely prevent me from receiving enough hours to get by. I’m meeting my old CEO for a coffee tomorrow and I just feel really sad that this great opportunity to work with some great people will slip through my fingers and I’ll be stuck at my current shitty job and that nothing good can come way.
Your cat sounds like me whenever I have a day off work.
The Albanese government can absolutely go fuck itself. People earning $200,000 and over to get tax cuts equaling to $9000 a year, while low income workers get a measley $125 a year in tax cuts. Doing absolutely fuck all about the cost of living crisis while they’re at it. Can’t believe I voted for these useless pricks.
Pretty happy with myself for not doing my usual ‘i just bought groceries but now I want uber eats’ and giving in to the temptation. Ended up making a salad of ruby burst grape tomatoes, red capsicum, cucumber, coriander and mersey valley cheddar and pulled it all together with some salt and lime. Just smashed the salad and waiting for my expensive nuggies (the inghams ciabatta coating ones to) Hurry up and cook.
Mr Peeler better like sleeping on the couch or better yet, outside because this is some bullshit. Being dyslexic or whatever isn’t an excuse for the shitty behaviour he is displaying. And drinking before picking up the kids? Absolutely fuck that noise. He needs a good kick up the arse. If you don’t do it, he’s going to continue to behave irresponsibly. Don’t vent to us to get it out so you’re calmer when you get home. You need to unleash hell on him and set some boundaries because right now he is walking all over you. Sorry to be harsh but I just hate seeing good people get treated like shit.
I’d personally forgotten, victoria had even won the right to host the games until this happened. Andrews was damned either way. If he’d allowed it to go over budget the media would have criticised him for wastefully spending amid the cost of living crisis.
Thank you friend! I’m sorry you are having to go through it as well :( I think getting some sun and doing some chores helped my brain reset. Things will get better, I just wish it would hurry up haha.
