I’ve had a problem with every job I’ve had to the point where I think maybe I’m the problem. I stopped complaining about work to people cause honestly I’ve had over 10 jobs and I’m starting to sound like a broken record but I swear it’s not me.
One boss said I wasn’t worth the pay we agreed on 3 months in and cut my pay down by $2 so I left.
One didn’t care when I got injured at work (I was a vet tech and attacked by a cat) and had me still close the clinic while I was bleeding then made me open the morning after instead of going to urgent care which lead to an infection, I had to be on iv fluids for 3 days.
One boss literally yelled at clients and employees constantly and blamed me for things that happened before I was even hired she would make comments about my weight and looks constantly.
I could go on, I feel like these are all valid excuses but I’m starting to not believe myself since having crappy bosses is becoming a bit too frequent for me. am I being too sensitive? is this what everyone puts up with? When I explained these situations to my ex he basically told me to suck it up. he never once told me to quit and would say I was rude for walking out and not returning instead of giving 2 weeks notice.
My current job I went to school for. I am a medical esthetician I paid thousands for school and still owe thousands and I only get paid $31k before taxes. I’m constantly fully booked I bring them $1k+ a day. I only get 30 min break in 8.5 hours and then I’m booked back to back with literally no wiggle room, its to the point where if I need to take a pee break I’d run behind schedule. The boss hasn’t done anything outlandish for me to want to walk out and leave but I’m just so tired of being over worked under appreciated and controlled I feel burnt out. is this what it’s supposed to feel like for the rest of my life? I don’t want to work anymore and it’s making me feel depressed and trapped. Usually adults say “welcome to adulthood” when I express my concerns but this cannot be the hell everyone goes through.
