I just started this job two weeks ago. Very short staffed office. So short staffed that I am working entirely through lunches (timeclock deducted) and also staying over after scheduled shift time.
Since this is an ongoing issue, I am looking for another job. I have not made anyone aware of this, but I have started “quiet quitting” which includes 10+ restroom breaks a day, slowing down my work, and when people comment on my speed I just nod.
My boss came in Friday and told me my coworker just quit. This person was training me.
She knows her company sucks and said to me “you aren't thinking of quitting are you? You've really grown on me and I kind of like you.”. Oh please.
Another co-worker casually hearing this conversation knows how screwed I am now that I have the workload of two people and says “She can't quit. We just spent two weeks training her and (quitter's name) is gone.”.
The rest of the day, I had random people approaching me commenting saying “you got this!” and saying “take one for the team!”
No. F off. Hire someone else. The guilt trip is sickening and your company sucks.
