The reason I haven’t left yet is because they do pay me $30 an hour as a dental assistant but the way they are with me, is so messed up that even my coworkers say that I should just quit because of how they treat me. I told them I haven’t quit yet because I don’t want to be out of a job and I don’t know an office willing to pay me the same amount. I feel like the managers and supervisors don’t like me because I’m a happy spirit and I communicate with the patients so that it’s not awkward waiting

Crazy. it wasnt worth coming home to my family with a negative mindspace at all. i feel alot better now however now my only worry is finding another job :(

You sound a little young, and I'm not saying you're immature or anything like that. Working in a hostile environment takes guts. I have worked in different situations where the majority have been male or where the majority have been female, and on both sides there are always misunderstandings, envy etc. a combination of everything, I could tell you to focus on your patients, and whatever you do, do it to the best of your ability, let the noise haters out! Good luck ❤️

Money is not everything. Yes, it does help, but is it worth it? I have left toxic offices where I was getting paid very well, but my mental health is more important to me than money. If you like where you are and can handle it, great!

I've been a dental assistant for 11 years , and I think I'm done . I feel the pay is never enough and 9/10 we do the most work in the office . It's never commensurate to what we do and no matter how much experience you have your still 3-5$ more than someone fresh out of school . It's a skill I'm glad to know that I can always find work but the burnout for nothing isn't worth it. Can anyone relate
