I've been a loyal slave at this company for 5 years. I work in quality and have to collaborate with engineers and upper management. It can be stressful at times, but the issue has always been how toxic the people are. Especially in production. They're disrespectful because I have my own office/lab and say I don't do much because of it. That's part of the problem
The bigger issue is my team. I work 12 hour shifts and do everything that's assigned to me. I double and triple check everything because at my company we manufacter credit cards with all the customers info on them. Lately, my boss has been making fun of me for being a “over achiever” and jokingly say I'm a quick learner. Sarcasm. My other coworker, meanwhile, is condescending. A few months ago, I called her out on it. This is a woman that's never been told no before in her life and avoids me like the plague now. She doesn't pass down any information and straight up lies about things. One of those things being she didn't know why my boss was in a meeting all day. When he came into our lab, she was gushing about all her ideas she told him that day in the meeting. I didn't say anything then.
Recently, when we were in a meeting, she tried to nit pick my work and try to make me look bad. She kept comparing my work to other quality techs. I almost lashed out, but I held my tongue.
I host presentations, make sure every little thing is in spec and edit work instructions. My boss is also making me read books about lean culture when its doing absolutely nothing. I've reached my breaking point.
The good news is that I've been applying to other places like crazy and I have a few interviews lined up. I'm debating if I should give notice or just give my badge to security so they can walk me out.
