Stop bragging that you found a higher paying slave job

A trend I have seen lately is people posting how they left their last employer because they found a “better” one. It's a humble brag like they have advanced in life and need others to know it. Sorry (but not really). For the record – I am sick of seeing posts people bragging about how they left their last job to find a new one that pays them more. I don't care that you found a job that pays more. You are still a slave. You think somehow you won since you found a job that pays more which ironically will probably consume just as much of your time as your last position, if not potentially more. And you may even get pushed up into a higher tax bracket with that extra money you are making so more of it will actually be taken away. What I really think is…

Manager told me “to be more assertive”

Two jobs ago I worked in a small office, and our offices were divided. Due to my abilities they really pushed me towards the new section they were building, which took place in January 2020. I was the only guy on the team, which I am used to I have no issues with. The newest “manager” came in and I could tell she had a disconnect with me. When the pandemic took place, I was one of those who was furloughed. It really pissed me off given the amount of work that I had put in. When it came time to “return to the office”, I conveniently had no interest and working with her. I now have a position which rivals her role. How’s that for “being assertive”?
