I applied and received an offer for another internal position at my company. Part of the “standard process” is for the two managers to negotiate the start date of the employee in question- between themselves, without any input from the candidate (me). All of this happened before I accepted the offer. Because all this happened without my input, my existing manager is telling the team- other managers and my peers- that I’m leaving. And of course, making these announcements without consulting me. I never submitted a formal resignation, never even mentioned to my current manager I was interviewing or whether I accepted the position (I did accept).

I swear to god if I hear about this one more time I will lose my mind. I'm burnt out. Not just from work, but some life events just wore me out. I can't sleep. I get upset easily over little things. I don't want to do anything fun, and the weight I lost last year all came back and then some from stress eating. I want to just take a long break, for my mental health. I sincerely give zero fucks on it affecting my productivity. Just make it all stop.

its not worth it
