I just left my job after 4 years

And I don’t regret a thing. I worked for a large entertainment company for my first job and was there for 4 years. I had made my way up to a supervisor position but it wasn’t worth it because in those four years I was: written up for reporting sexual comments towards myself when I was a minor, laughed at when my hands were bleeding from the amount of labor I had done by my manager.

And I don’t regret a thing. I worked for a large entertainment company for my first job and was there for 4 years. I had made my way up to a supervisor position but it wasn’t worth it because in those four years I was: written up for reporting sexual comments towards myself when I was a minor, laughed at when my hands were bleeding from the amount of labor I had done by my manager. Was locked in a pitch black stock room for an hour due to turning down the approaches of a male manager who was a grown adult while I was also still a minor, when I got promoted, it only got worse. I worked hours way past my availability because I was the only high schooler who could even when I was supposed to get off at 10 pm, I would be getting off of work at 12 am and had school the next morning. I got hurt multiple times working and was told to stay quiet about it. I was also groomed while working there and when I confided in someone about it, they spread it to everyone and joked about it. I’m so glad I left, I was so scared to leave for so long because I wanted my actual work friends to know why and to not let the ones who made my life awful spin a web of lies. But they know now and I feel bad for the ones who I tried to help make their experience at that job different but for my own health, I couldn’t do it anymore and I am relieved to say I don’t work there and never will again.
