Anti-work is more anti-people

If the people you're working with are not decent people, it's gonna suck where you work. I was just ganged up on at work for the siliest reason, this reason being the tip of the iceberg. I was trying to explain that gallbladder issues can cause and increase in gas. And for some reason they all (2 coworkers + 1 supervisor) decided to argue with me yet again. Considering I know for a fact that I'm right and that I'm also literally going through it right now with my own gallbladder, I decided to give it a couple tries to convince them otherwise, even citing a medical website. No luck because once I stated what the site said it was then turned around on me and apparently that's not what I was saying at all anyway.

I was just ganged up on at work for the siliest reason, this reason being the tip of the iceberg. I was trying to explain that gallbladder issues can cause and increase in gas. And for some reason they all (2 coworkers + 1 supervisor) decided to argue with me yet again. Considering I know for a fact that I'm right and that I'm also literally going through it right now with my own gallbladder, I decided to give it a couple tries to convince them otherwise, even citing a medical website. No luck because once I stated what the site said it was then turned around on me and apparently that's not what I was saying at all anyway.

So, I said “fuck you all,” clocked out early, and went home.

A little backstory:

When I first started, I worked my ass off. One of the, if not the, hardest working people on the team. And no that's not me being arrogant. I don't do this to show off or make others look bad, it's just a product of my work ethic and who I am. Well, apparently that made them upset and I got shit for it by everyone. “you go too hard”, “you work too hard”, “you're making us look bad”.

Okay so I tone it down a bit: “you're not doing as much as you used to”, “you don't seem the same anymore”.

So naturally I lost the passion for the place and started to become depressed and hate going into work. We even lost our supervisor a while back, then our manager, and we finally have a supervisor again after 6 months without.

Anyway, don't stay somewhere where you're not valued and can be yourself / work to your fullest potential. Or somewhere where your coworkers aren't at the very least amicable toward you and mature enough to not argue about farts without any factual evidence to back it up. Further, if every conversation turns into an argument, it's time to go.
