The game was rigged from the start.
Yes THIS! Exactly THAT!
Risking your life for your work.
Boss thought I was bluffing
I work for a corporation. Said corporation did a big reorg. Colleagues from my team have been leaving for various reasons. I'm one of the few remaining members who have deep SME knowledge on our area. Our area got combined with another. I found out that some of the positions are not being backfilled, and that my responsibilities are being merged with another person's. I'm already at 150% capacity prior to this reorg, due to people leaving and another colleague abusing our STD policy (went on vacation for 2.5 months ) and I've been covering for the extra work. I've had no luck with convincing my manager to delegate or reassign or get help for my existing work and it looks like it's just going to keep piling up. Been doing an extra hour every other day to help keep somewhat on top of this but I'm done. I can't…

I can relate with that guy
Today I resigned.
It felt really empowering to write a 20 second resignation letter that reads, March 22,2022 It is my greatest pleasure to be informing (company name here) that this is my notice. My final day will be April 1, 2022. (Signature) It took me 4 years of being a punching bag and finally having a (known at the time of being hired) medical condition thrown in my face. I had told my boss that if they started pulling my overtime, that I'd be looking for another job. It was laughed off, the overtime was given to people with far less seniority, so I started job hunting. 2 weeks and 6 interviews later with a job offer from all but 1. Guess who won? My company's competitor down the road.
