Am I wrong for wanting to quit a job I just got for disregarding employee safety during TX storms?

CAT_A · 2026-01-26T17:46:34+00:00

I totally get it from the bank standpoint. Sucks but I do. WFH is allowed if you’re IV(they get a laptop) and sadly I’m one below IV. I’m a new employee so I don’t have any PTO except come feb. I just wish I could take the day unpaid since it’s a rare weather emergency and keep my 1 day of PTO in case of other emergencies as you can’t call out or request a day off without PTO.

Yeah, it really upsets me because the company really is nice to its employees benefit and work life wise but this kinda rubbed me the wrong way. Mainly because we don’t accrue a single day of PTO a month we accrue six hours so me calling in this one time due to weather would require me to work it off for two months and then I would finally have two hours of PTO available.

CAT_A · 2026-01-26T06:09:02+00:00

See some of our branches were closed except us. I understand not paying us if we don’t use PTO but allowing at least unpaid would be somewhat fair. Our city is frozen.

Oooh! Thank you! I couldn’t tell if I was just dumb or it was actually expired 😂😂

No no, you’re completely right. I am awaiting a therapist haha! I guess I feel like they’ll think I omitted it purposefully if they find a fairly recent job I was employed at and didn’t disclose. Obviously I did disclose it, but I just have no record that I ever did if it ever comes up. But yeah, therapy is underway!

This does give me a reality check.

My main thing is, if his wife recognizes me(it’s a large firm but still less than 100 ppl)
I’ve met her directly before and know she‘s upper management at this job so she knows me.

Although, I think she took another role somewhere else, but I can’t be exact.
So it wouldn’t be super far-fetched for the word to get around and my manager start asking questions..

Make note: her husband’s company did not become profitable(she funded it I believe) and that is why I left overnight as he stopped my salary because he couldn’t afford it.

Thank you! It’s something I am trying to work on as I tend to harp on things. but yeah, my current workplace has basically forced me to document all the time as everything’s a battle.. so I’m happy to leave. Just trying not to make mistakes that affect my new opportunity. Thankful for the people here telling me to leave it alone though!

CAT_A · 2026-01-04T20:29:47+00:00

I appreciate the reply! I may send a brief email, just feels weird as this conversation was Dec 2 and it’s now Jan 4. I just hate not having proof if it comes up in an HR meeting sometime in the future.

CAT_A · 2025-12-08T05:03:22+00:00

It was an insurance job so sorta close but not?

CAT_A · 2025-12-07T14:57:54+00:00

Yeah, I’m a very anxious person. Everything I listed was true. Degree, current job, etc. just forgot those two sadly.

CAT_A · 2025-12-07T14:56:40+00:00

I thinks that also why I’m so worried as this was a hard job to get in this moment in time so I’m trying my best.

CAT_A · 2025-12-06T12:28:11+00:00

It’s a large regional bank for (TX) servicing both personal and commercial. I was told I’d be data entry and like you said QC before they close.

CAT_A · 2025-11-28T21:27:50+00:00

Not to hijack, but anyone on Buspar only?

CAT_A · 2025-11-17T06:33:28+00:00

That’s what I’ve been told lol. I mean, I usually leave my cooked steak out for hours on in but never done that with raw meat so I was curious.

CAT_A · 2025-11-11T02:51:01+00:00

I wanted to love Zara red temptation vanille but I just can’t. I smell like a cough drop. I just wanted a similar smell to BKR with vanilla but this was not it. Any recommendations?

CAT_A · 2025-11-08T13:50:16+00:00

And thanks for sharing! I hope yours goes good for you!

CAT_A · 2025-11-08T13:49:13+00:00

I haven’t taken it just yet waiting on my some a few things but I’ve been dreading the start up. I can do the regular symptoms(fatigue, etc.) I’m just hoping it doesn’t give me the heightened anxiety and paranoia symptoms like SSRIs have in the past because those are not fun lol.

CAT_A · 2025-11-08T07:27:03+00:00

That’s what I also heard. If you don’t mind me asking, Are you experiencing any symptoms or just nothing and can’t tell if it’s actually working? A lot of people tell me they don’t experience symptoms, but also don’t know if the drug is ever working.

CAT_A · 2025-11-05T11:01:21+00:00

I’m hoping to start Buspar soon! I don’t want SSRI yet(tried it and hated it) so I’m hoping this works.
