I saw a post yesterday that said, “Being good at your job often attracts more work. It’s called ‘performance punishment…’ Overworking your high performers to avoid growing your under performers is a fast track to disaster. It breeds resentment. Good people will leave, and poor performers will not learn.”

It's a life skill to know when to cut your losses.

[dawnofthedelts]

You get punished for being good at your job by being given more responsibility, because your co-worker won't pull their weight. It's the truth!

I don't hate my job, but my coworkers are toxic as hell. Which makes me hate going to work.

I recently left my job because, although I voiced myself and got the support I needed, my teammate did minimal work while I did the maximum. I was tired and knew this would never work in the long run.

That 'oh crap what did I get myself into' feeling at a new job is the worst. Thankfully they made me finally go for it. I started a business 15 months ago and although the money isn't consistent I'm happier than I've ever been.

In the beginning you can't be expected to know everything.this is huge

[itsmeforsure]

I'm 55 yrs old and here's my 2 cents. Once you have the feeling your boss has soured on you, go home that night start looking for a job. Don't wait for your schitty boss to get fired. GTFO as soon as you can.

I agree with this completely! Exactly how I viewed my last job, as a relationship. It was the greatest thing when it started, but like a failing relationship that you're fighting to hold onto, I just got tired of how it was making me feel, reminding me of my past mistakes, feeling like an idiot everyday, plus I just downright hated my last supervisor lol!!! I hated having to look at that person, everyday. When I got let go, I wasn't depressed in the slightest, I went home, smoked a cigarette, cooked and ate a whole Totino's pizza to myself, and went right back to bed! Just like a terrible toxic relationship, I was happy to be released, and vice versa, I'm sure!

Putting in my two. The first one is the reason. I'm the only one who does the backbone work while my staff is toxic. Your body is your #1 asset 🥇 if it's not good, you're not going anywhere. If you think your health is in jeopardy, quit.

[YouCorny]

Working a job is the most unnatural thing a human could do regularly, you might be happy for a time but eventually all jobs suck; because we're not meant to work a job 8, 9 or 12 hours a day. We've accepted this as the norm but it's not normal at all.

[rohangandhi]

In the beginning you cannot be expected to know everything. That’s so true.

[nigelbenn]

You know it's time to leave when you hypothetically wish you'd get fired or made redundant. I.E. any excuse not to go in.

[fdja]

Employers expect loyalty from most of us but when things get tough, they'll let you go in the name of "bottom line is cost". There are some good workplaces but they're almost the exception rather than the rule.

[morningmona]

What is even more interesting is that the underperformers or not so stellar leaders get promoted.

[MM-vvmt]

So true. If youre not being loved by your employer, or even worse, you're heing abused or degraded or gaslighted, then it's def time to get out of that toxic relationship.

[deborahbarnes]

Sometimes your manager sees you as too strong, or too experienced. They then try to discredit you to get you to leave.
Sometimes it doesnt matter how good you are at you job, emoloyers want you to be a cheerleader for the company, owners want you to feel the same way they do for the company they own.
They have unrealistic exspectations, its thier dream but your job.

[americandissident]

People who tell others to just quit are completely unaware of the stress and problems that creates. They’ve made a list of the most stressful events in a person’s life and changing jobs is one of those things. I can’t take anyone seriously if they tell others to just quit their jobs. If it was easy to find another job that sustains your life then we’d all be doing it more often.

[mrrightorwrong]

Here is the problem as a worker you shouldnt have to check in and see how you're doing, Its up to the persons in charge to be able to identify if youre doing great or not, alot of the time those in charge are to busy or in some cases to stupid to see youre real worth, if thats the case its best to dump them and move on....

[charlieadams-qnif]

I just saw this video today. I never thought about a job as a relationship.

At work I go above and beyond. I go to work every day and I'm always on time. I'm always doing my job and filling in to do the work the Supervisor doesn't want to do.

However my Supervisor is higher management's favorite and the Supervisor knows this. The Supervisor does minimal work and complains constantly about me and gives me the silent treatment. Plus the Supervisor gives me nasty attitude. Higher Management who is never watching due to being in meetings all day, believes there friend the Supervisor. This Supervisor has caused a toxic work environment.

I'm not understanding why workers need to cause problems and chaos in the workplace. Workers are at least 8 hours in the office so why not make the best of it.

Every day I'm physically and mentally drained. I'm looking for another job where I will be appreciated and hopefully have better coworkers. 🤞
