One time I worked at a new job for like 4 hours and just didn’t come back after I took my “lunch break” lmao

I work in a construction type job and I have been with said company for about 9 years. IAlmost a year ago I worked at a job where my foreman–since day one–decided to exclusively treat me like garbage. I talked to my lead hand, who witnessed the abuse about it. He had enough and went to the office and explained that everyone's being treated terribly on this job by this foreman, but more so myself specifically. For the record, I am a hard worker and do my best to make everyone happy. He got in trouble for the way he was treating me and that was the end of the tale…. or so I thought. Today, at roughly 4:40pm, said punished foreman calls me about all the complaints he received and how people are lying and stabbing him in the back. He circles around and says that I'm the worst…

This particular CEO hasn't been able to keep an executive assistant for more than 15 months, most don't last a year. I see they're trying to rebrand it as something awesome because it's clearly not the CEO's fault. It's everybody else not being up to the task https://preview.redd.it/ufpote3ss9l81.png?width=759&format=png&auto=webp&s=23c1d751c75d861bf0dde902b1084920ca4eafac

Decanting this with a friend, I remembered this topic comes up a lot. Do we have a census regarding companies and our work experiences? What about job seeking and walking into a toxic encounter. Just wondering about everyone's thoughts. Personally, I can't help think, if this was done more and more frequently,. We would get more positive change. Thoughts?

Has anyone else been the victim of a “culture fit” termination? I was just fired today for “not fitting in” and I'm not sure what to do. I unfortunately live in an at-will state.

i just want to get a feel of how poor some of you actually are. i have NO money invested in the market. i have NO savings.
