Does anyone else find it harder to advocate for themselves the longer they stay in a toxic job? I used to be the person who asked hard questions, gave feedback, stood up for myself, etc... now I just hope I don’t get noticed. After three years here, I feel like my confidence has eroded bit by bit. I second-guess everything. How do you rebuild your voice when it’s been chipped away slowly over time?

Honestly, I was in a company that was awesome and then I became toxic and then I actually got laid off before I left, but I was in the process of trying to get out of there because I have a certain point if they don’t want to hear you, they never will and they will make you then fall into impostor syndrome and ruin your life and never let an employer do that to you. You only work to make money to feed your family and yourself and live. You do not get up every day and only live to work rather you work so that you can pay for things and live, but I think a lot of people get that confused sometimes when they’re under constant fight or flight stress from a job. You’re better than that. Don’t let a job do that to you start looking for other companies as there are lots of good companies out there who actually want to hear your feedback and value your opinion. I work for one right now or they are very open to feedback and knowing you as a person, which is very empowering and exhilarating compared to some of the prior places I’ve worked at Good luck. 👍🍀

Can someone help me with this? I had a low utilization since pandemic, I.e., ~sub 5%, but never missed any payments. Would credit score be impacted if only one line of credit with a low utilization?

Too few accounts currently paid as agreed

Scores consider the number of accounts that are paid as agreed. Your score was impacted because the number of these accounts is too low, or because you've missed payments recently on some of your accounts.
