Good for this person. This is exactly what you do. Screw the job.
I had a job that made me work an all nighter, 30 hours straight, over Thanksgiving. I resigned that Monday and it was one of the most satisfying decisions I’ve ever made.
Please pay attention to all the manipulation tactics this boss uses, because they’re pulling out every trick in the book.
“I’m not your boss, I’m your friend”
“Other people will be hurt by this and it’s your fault and I’m going to tell them all that”
Mocking language
Jobs are important too
“Be a team player”
“We’re your family too”
Talking as if this is a thing you must do
“We all make sacrifices”
Undermining your authority
“You caused all of this, really”
Accusing you of being “unprofessional”
“Look at the money you cost us”
“Just laugh it off and come back to work”
This is like a 101 course in how employers use guilt trips to coerce you into putting up with their bullshit. This is precisely why you should never trust those employers who insist that they’re “like a family.” They are not. It’s just a ruse so that your boss can neg you into putting your job ahead of your actual life.
Pardon the morning face, but just have to say I got so many random compliments yesterday about how good I look with my beard 🫠🫠🫠 typically this is right around when I would shave it down to a 5 o’clock shadow, so should I keep it going?! Also, if anyone wants to share some tips on keeping it tame and looking even fuller, I’m all ears! 🥰
I think in response to Twitter, Tumblr should make it so that you can’t open any other apps on your phone until you’ve seen at least 600 posts for the day.
