I’ve posted about my excruciatingly long notice period on this subreddit before.
I have a week left to go and because my company has failed to find a replacement, they expect me to train a junior employee (who has little experience) on all of my duties and previous projects. I’ve been with this company for 3 years and I’ve worked 30 projects.
My manager and colleagues have been incredibly cold to me since I resigned. They were already unhappy that I had 6 weeks of medical leave following my nervous breakdown. I guess they expected me to return to my usual productivity level of 120% (yes I was one of those) so they were upset when I didn’t, and eventually resigned.
It’s been tough working in an environment where no one likes you and they don’t hide it. Some of it could be classified as bullying but I’m not interested in filing a grievance. I just want to get out.
Making work less of a priority in my life has done wonders for my mental health. For a couple of months I ignored the rudeness and worked my hours. But now my department is scrambling because they’re realising how many projects I worked on alone.
I’m expected to develop detailed handover documents for each of those 30 projects in a week and spend hours talking through them with this junior employee I’m very stressed. The managers want to sit in the meeting. One of the managers told this junior employee to stay on top of me. they make jokes at my expense and share glances when I speak. Every meeting with these people kills my soul. I’m feeling really hopeless right now. I also received a couple of diagnoses last week of conditions that are linked to stress.
My therapist is worried about this and has told me to do what I can. But that’s not possible when I have these managers hounding multiple times a day
