I used to work with a guy who was super OCD and also an incredible prick. Whenever he would go out for lunch we would very subtly change things on his desk (everything had to be at right angles to each other, so just shift things by like five degrees) and hilarity would ensue.

I endorse your approach.

Advice needed. Iโ€™m leaving an incredibly toxic work environment (admin, students, parents, etc) for my dream job. I already resigned, but my students donโ€™t know yet. I knew if I told them, their behavior would be even worse. How would you explain to the kids youโ€™re leaving? I donโ€™t want my P to know Iโ€™ve been hired elsewhere, so I donโ€™t want to tell them I have a new position, but I also donโ€™t want them to think they ran me off (or that I got fired, lol). Iโ€™m leaving next week.

My ASM is lazy and is incapable of doing the easiest basic tasks with recruitment. She receives all my end of day updates, is ccโ€™d on all emails, makes me fill out 5 repetitive excel/smart sheet, and joins all my meetings but she still wants to call having me 5x daily about updates. Iโ€™m always the one to go to if other recruiters fail to meet client deadlines and cleaning up recruiters mistakes. How do I even handle this to begin with?

Really looking for a way to turn around a toxic building culture with staff to staff bullying, cliques/social isolation, hard feelings on big topics (racism, non acceptance of gender identity). Last year the staff polarized with the lead bully whom I helped leave. And the lead gossip (who was my secretary) that gained their sympathy and turned them against me. She also left. Now I need to regain trust and eliminate unacceptable teacher behaviors. Open to any and all advice.

Where can I find the holiday calendar in CGI?

Would you feel comfortable telling HR that your service lineโ€™s culture sucks and name the individuals who cause it? Or is a better approach saying itโ€™s the leadership in general creating a negative and toxic culture? How effective are these conversations really? Trying to assess if thereโ€™s any point in bringing this up. Obviously HR works for the company and an employee sharing their thoughts on the unsupportive, cold leaders could bite me in the long run.
