Any advice for how you to keep yourself from telling your boss to fuck off and gloriously walk out / quit? I’ve tried going for a walk, nod and agree, taking side actions to make myself feel better (apply for jobs, preemptively write my resignation letter, etc), but my anxiety along with this persons incessant toxicity is lighting a short fuse. I’ve got several interviews and second rounds lined up but need to keep it together for the next few months.
For context: I work in the architecture industry in a large city; the community is small and my boss is a terrible human, and more relevant to me, a terrible manager. They’ve been with the company their whole career (20+ years) and are very well connected in the community. If I quit on the spot, it’ll be much harder to find a job and potentially give me a bad name in the community. 8/11 people have left this person’s team in 5 years and my remaining coworkers also see my boss’s micromanagement, harassment (mostly verbal), and overall aggressive behavior.
