Don’t stay in a job that wears you down. No paycheck is worth losing your peace. I’ve seen people stay in unhealthy workplaces for too long, and it only drains them more. If a role constantly stresses or devalues you, it’s time to rethink your path. Healthier opportunities always exist.

I left my last job for the same reason a few months ago. I am currently unemployed, working on my pet projects, burning through my savings. But I agree, if the work culture is bad, It's better to just leave.

Too bad, not many are in a position to do that. The economy calls for another French Revolution.

I'm sorry about your job, you could do other things on the side as well, and if you're into social media, you could lean into the monetisation aspects and just make extra income.

I definitely agree with this and am learning that now, myself. I gave away years of my life with the promise of promotions because I was grinding and it never happened. No job is worth it in the end.

I'm glad you have seen the light regarding this matter.

I agree.

This is why, having options and networking is important and doing your own thing on the side as well.

The game has changed, when it comes to looking for work and work now.

The only person that will save you, is you in this new age of looking for work and work.

You can never go wrong with having something on the side, It gives you that confidence to walk away from sticky situations..

thank you for the reminder!

You're welcome.

It’s literally such a big part of our lives. Mental health is more important than

Mental health is an integral part of our lives.

Should I Go Back and Reneg? Recently I was offered a role as a Project Implementation Manager (In Retirement Services) .The salary range for Colorado residents was 65-89K. I’m located in NY so the recruiter said he would try to get me more. Ultimately he came back at 90K which is a bit inline with that I was seeing on Glassdoor but approx looks like I may leave 10-12K on the table. I accepted already but may get an offer from another HR company in account management around 90-100K. Need advice

I think I have work trauma not sure how it’s clouding my ability to make decisions. I’ve had unstable work after being laid off from a company 3 years ago. I thought I worked out a plan to get to a stable place but my job is proving to be unstable yet again. I secured a FT role at another company but because it’s a lot less money I’m unsure because I feel very cynical about companies in general. I assume it’ll be just like all the rest but now I’ll just be making less and could get laid off.
