I work as a callcenter agent in a kinda chilled and laid back company. The first few weeks, maybe even months everything was smooth, everyone was nice, the office looks pretty, my workspace was inviting and open and about 90% of the colleagues are pretty cool and decent people.
Today, I called in sick. I am currently writing up my resignation and I will quit this job. I am not actually sick, I admit it, I told my doc, and doc fucking knew that I wasn't sick. He always knows.
I am tired of the software, I am tired of this odd sense of group… but the worst part is, I am tired of the fact that all the people above me, all the people that have been working there for over a year longer than me are getting paid the same as me and keep getting denied raises while doing the job of 3 people themselves.
Multiple people have quit, multiple very talented people because where i live, 13€ an hour just isn't that much money. I can barely barely afford rent, I can buy the groceries I want but have to drag myself into a place that I grow more and more resentful of by the hour. with that, now, they are slowly turning toxic too, and more and more ref flags show up. No, I do not want to work overtime. No, I feel like it is stupid to come into office every day of the week when I could work from home. Yes, I feel pressured into this work enviroment, of always looking ready and happy with what I am doing.
So, here it is. I am sick. Not actually ill, but sick of your company, sick of my job and sick of feeling like I owe anyone or anything an apology for the fact that working 6 to 8 hours on fixing the same repetitive problem over and over again just drives you nuts. Gets you tired. Makes you… sick.
