Maybe u remember my posts from this month, I’ve been dealing with a “bad movie”-like toxic work environment. It’s a super corporate, service based company with just 10 employees total, including myself. I (24f) was the youngest, but the overall demographic was 35+ single women with children.
I couldn’t bring myself to go through another day. I sent the email just 10mins ago, my letter of resignation. They were so close to firing me, suddenly writing me up just 3ish weeks ago after being in the position for 8 months.
The truth was I didn’t fit the team. I fit the company and the position, but not the team. You can’t accomplish much without your entire team. I’m upset I never got to figure out how to navigate this. I hope I learned something for the future.
This is what I left:
Constant whispers (all you can hear is “SHE-”), open gossip about certain people, ridiculous condescending tones backed with belittling, for 8ish months. I couldn’t go back today. I just did it.
