I feel like everywhere I look now people are posting about their toxic work environment.

My toxic work environment is purely based on my managing director being a naturally angry/ deeming person that takes out his stress and anger on other people for no reason

I feel like my work place is either discriminating against me or has me on a list to get rid of. At the expense of coming across as a jerk I stand up for myself at work and I'm not afraid of telling my work place no. Which is one reason I feel I'm on a list that my upper management doesn't like. I don't go out of my way to be a jerk but I know my rights as an employee and my work place doesn't like that. They won't let me promote but let people I've trained get promoted.

I’m feeling bad for one of my coworkers. They are my favorite person, the nicest and actually willing to work hard. But their craft is not up to the standards of my bosses, I try to help, guide and inspire but I can only do much. They complain to me about the leadership getting always too demanding with them but I kind of agree that the work could be better. I’m afraid they are going to lose their job soon and it breaks my heart.
