![]() ![]() I can understand what you're going through because my wife had a shitty call center job, and they fired her 1 week before her 1 year anniversary because they'd have to give her benefits. It's always better to get fired then to just walk away.Īnd I don't recommend just quitting and wasting your savings, speaking from experience because I did that when I was your age as well, and I regretted it because it set me back so much.įind a new job, but in the meantime don't let them win by making you quit, stick with it. That way, while you're pissing away savings you can at least get a chunk of unemployment money when you hopefully win. If you're on the fence about quitting, don't, just stick up for yourself, don't let their petty harassment bother you, record them harassing you, write notes on what they're doing, then if they fire you you at least have a case for unemployment if you choose to go that route. Maybe talk to a lawyer about that contract, to see what you can do. Let me know if you have any questions or anything. It took time, but it worked out for the best in the end. Went through a similar experience last year, actually. It'll take time, but taking steps to change your situation will keep you focused and directed. So, basically, I'd keep your head down at work and keep looking on the side. Your company sounds like the kind of place where management will try and instill fear of the inability to find another job when in actuality, they're probably scared shitless people are going to leave. Companies are hurting for people and hiring like crazy. ![]() I didn't take the jobs, but they got me set up with multiple interviews surprisingly quickly.Īnother thing? It may not seem like it from your perspective, but it is ABSOLUTELY a worker's market in the job market today. You could set your profile up to let recruiters know you're looking for work, and they'll look for you while you also look for yourself. Often, they were people I worked with who left, and then hired me at their new place.Īlso, LinkedIn recruiters are great. Every job I've ever had has been through someone I knew personally. If it were me, I'd reach out to any- and everyone in my social network to let them know I'm looking for work. Do I buy lottery scratch offs? Fundraise? What the hell can I do I can't take this anymore. But like, with that bullshit contract I'm fucked. It's hurting my mental health so badly in my personal life. BUT, when I came from my last job they snuck in a $5000 relocation contract which means I have to stay here for another like half a year or more until thats void and I can't fucking do it. However, I have a very good savings, (I'll just say 10,000-20,000 on the higher end) and would've honestly quit by now and simply lived off my savings job hunting full time. ![]() And my job hunt has thus far only turned up rejection letter after rejection letter. Now you may be thinking, "just quit dude?" but here's the thing, as ever with America the wage slavery is strong and I have bills to pay. Now we're being punished with more of our. This was apparently some kind of punishment for all of us as someone allegedly was cheating the system not taking calls, can't blame them. They just announced this morning that they're ending remote work and moving back to office and expanding our hours on the phones each day. It's detracting from all of our personal lives. Everyone is depressed here and despondent. It's actually making me miss my last job. We're condescended to and talked to like we're 10 years old. We're treated like numbers, its dehumanizing, we're micro managed to hell and back as our software tracks us minute to minute and if we are "out of adherence" for even 10 min we get chewed out. ![]() I'll run down the bullshit, its a glorified call center, they advertised it as a salaried professional development role but we're just bitch hourly phone grunts. This is my second real big boy job, (24 years old) And for awhile it was okay but holy fuck they've shown their true colors and my whole team has either quit, or is actively job hunting. Long story short, I left a previous job I hated, (dickhead manager, untenable work life balance) and came to this remote one. ![]()
