I worked from 9:00 to 18:00 with an houre lunch break in-between. I worked my legally 8 hourse so I decided to leave at 18:15 (!) because I was exhausted and tired. After I started to pack my things, my team leader asked me what I'm doing because there is still work to do (nothing what can't be done by tomorrow); I just said, that I'm leaving. Although the team leader held an moral preach I just said thats already past 18:00 and that I'm leaving now. And so I left. I'm curious about tomorrow and what my colleagues (and team leader) will say.
This may not be the most appropriate for anti work so I apologize in advance for that. Within the last two years, out of the 13 years I’ve been working, I was let go twice. These are the only instances I’ve ever been let go, and both were at jobs I loved and completely without warning. No write ups, talking to, verbal warning, literally nothing. I have a lot of remaining anxiety about this that has carried over into my new job, and I don’t want to worry about being let go over the smallest mistake anymore. Any advice? Unfortunately I can’t afford a therapist at the moment. I have generalized anxiety disorder so I’m sure that only exacerbates my worries but I don’t want to feel this way anymore. Any help is appreciated

about to have a fucking meltdown. for context: my business is an online business (I'll be as blunt about this as possible for confidentiality). but we can do our work completely fine at home. during the pandemic, 2020-2021-ish, we were made to WFH and profits and productivity skyrocketed. We performed better than ever with no turnovers and no complaints. Start of 2022, we were told to come back to the office, cause we have the worst fucking managers in the world who LIVE to micromanage and nothing else. Since then, we've had many leave due to no flexibility, better benefits elsewhere, better management, etc. …but they fail to see the silver lining in all of this and the company is suffering because of this. I can see many more leaving very soon and if it wasn't for my fucking XM4 headphones, I'd prob wanna punch a few holes in the…

I’ve already had enough of this, people call the office and don’t leave voicemails and my boss expects me to magically know who’s called and call them back when they don’t leave a voicemail (our phone doesn’t record missed calls) then he texted me and said “patients were calling him to make payments” (which is complete BS because no patients have his personal number, and I was sitting in my car on my lunch break) I finish it early and go upstairs to check expecting there to have 10 missed calls. I send him a picture of the phone with 0 voicemails on them. And he said “well you can have your lunch in the office so if somebody calls your there” I’m sorry what?????? Someone tell me I’m hallucinating. Then I reply “I’m not legally obligated to work while I’m on my 30 minute lunch” and he just stopped…
