Antiwork

Have a meeting with my toxic manager and our HR today. Most of our team is looking for new work because of the toxic positivity and pressure from our manager. Manager has what basically boils down to a no friendship rule in the workplace between colleagues and has vaguely threatened me before because I am friends with a colleague from before working there.
