Quitting a toxic job is easy. It's finding something better that isn't.

[chaingunmike]

People don’t leave jobs. They leave bosses.

[thecook]

I have never had a bad JOB. It's always shitty bosses/management/work environment.

[wrawler]

As a 27 year old working at a toxic job as well, I needed this

He has a good point about exit interviews honestly, if the company doesnt listen to you when you work there, theyre not gonna care once you quit. Exit interviews themselves are a good idea, an honest company would do them and try to learn from their mistakes, but a toxic workplace is going to continue to ignore the problems

[workingguy]

They wont listen to your opinions when you're there. They won't listen to your opinions either when you leave. So moral of the story here is to just leave

[sreyasinharoy]

“I’m staying you’re leaving, why do I care what you think” is the epitome of a toxic workplace. Perhaps you should care because others in your company might be exiting for the same reason unless you reflect and do something about it.

Dave saying “I’m sorry” made her break instantly. Crazy how toxic environments are really just a simple lack of empathy by leadership.

[dayanaalonso]

A lot of times people give lots of input and it falls on deaf ears. You as a boss or a leader need to listen or you’ll lose employees that actually care and do the work!

[GrandChessboard]

Working in the medical field is one of the most unappreciated, thankless careers. I agree with the useless "leadership" and the toxic environment. I would tell anyone not to bother with it...

[atxlady]

I work in HR and I completely agree with the comment about the exit interviews! No HR department that I've ever worked with has ever done anything with the information they learned from exit interviews. It's such a shame. If I'm ever in a leadership position in HR, I will take exit interviews seriously! Leaving a toxic HR environment and I'm being asked to do a exit interview. "No thank you"

[screwdriver_bandit]

Dave just proved this: People need to check their egos at the door and realize leadership at most workforces don’t give a sh*% about your opinion, otherwise they’d ask for it.

I work in the medical field and it’s so toxic, I feel her pain.

1. Get signed off from your GP for workplace stress 2. file a grievance with HR 3. Resign, negotiating your exit.
Get away from toxic, malevolent people. The longer you stay, the harder it will be to heal.

I had to end my tenure at a construction job on Sunday evening because of a series of nightmare-like days, that were bleeding over into my personal life and taking a toll on my health off-duty. The final straw was being called a "dipshit" over something that I was specifically instructed to do on Friday, over a group message, that made me feel like I was having a heart attack.

I'm glad that my exit went as smoothly as it did, and I went almost exactly by the script that was laid out here. I offered more professional courtesy than this owner likely deserved, but that's for my own pride. Same as all of the hard, skilled work that I brought to the table.

[Belluser-weuccbl]

In my worst experience, working in a toxic environment, even hostile. The owners slash bosses and managers do not care if you go to them for help. Time to go. My problem was I waited till things got better and it just doesn't it gets worse. In desperation I have accepted jobs with less money, but I was also happier.

[ranettalang]

It's so diffucult working in an increasingly toxic work environment when I'm nearing retirement, and don't know when that will be... when I'm 70 and single income now. Leadership all male, literally no HR department, not listened to, greedy ungrateful leadership. Please pray for me if you are a Believer.

[Euro]

Ramsey kind of showed himself to be one of those toxic leaders through this video.

[janityy]
