being told as a POC that i should just be happy being a manager. I stopped because i realized the problem is them not me
Holy crap
Had a panic attack because too many account managers on separate brands were setting ridiculously tight timelines with the client and I saw no light at the end of the tunnel. Tried reaching out to resourcing and project managers to no avail. What stopped me from rage quitting?
Lol who has time for that?!
>My white supervisor saying the N word
>Fear of homelessness
I’m sorry that happened, that’s unforgivable.
Does getting rage fired count?
Go on...
Got assigned a 10-page webinar script. Had a PM talking behind my back to save their ass and make it seem like I was the one making mistakes. And then got assigned another 10-page script.
I didn’t quit because I don’t have an offer from another agency yet. Hopefully soon. Very soon.
A project with a creative who was a total fraud and an art buyer who was whispering in his ear for leverage. I was gonna quit and my spouse was on board but I had one last meeting where I said “them or me.” They chose me.
But the culture of backstabbing and disregard of hiring white men who were total frauds and not believing anyone when they pointed that out? Well, that continues to this day. But it continues without me to see it.
At a previous agency, walking into a conversation where the PM is not only blasting you but your whole department to all of her acolytes. And it was a procedure she hadn't paid attention to for 6 months. Not one of the other PMs had a problem with it. Not my fault if you complain 6 months after we put it into place, and you're just now noticing that it creates an extra step for you. Really, it was the way she talked about us like we were peons and not worth the air to breathe at the same agency. I had been there 8 years, she for even longer. Never had an issue with her before that day. Once I saw her true colors, I never gave her a second glance. I would say she was having a bad day, but it was the way she was talking about us that showed how she truly felt. I didn't say anything to management because she was management. I found my present job just a month later. Yeah. Still bitter. But I am so much happier here than I ever was there. Funny how that works when you're treated with respect.
