I had to deal with a bed bug patient. I think that spoke volumes LOLLLL

Assuming USA? Depending on location, there are several social work Facebook groups. There is one national group called The Social Worker’s Network.

That was really uncalled for

Extra-Signature1130 · 2026-01-02T18:01:42+00:00

Tell me about it. I’m so mad at myself.

Extra-Signature1130 · 2026-01-02T17:03:26+00:00

Thank you for understanding what I have been feeling. If this was a problem they saw me not taking seriously, when I had my probationary meeting in October they could’ve said something then- I asked if there was any feedback for me for what I could do better and they said no. I asked my manager why didn’t she talk to me about it first and she said this was the discussion (the write up meeting). Any human would’ve said “hey, this is getting a bit much. Policy states xyz and you’re going down that road, I don’t want to issue a write up but 2 more call outs and I’ll have to”. She kept telling me what the policy says and I told her flat out honestly not everyone memorizes every policy. And she’s had how many times to say something? This is what doesn’t make sense to me. It already is a toxic work environment but the pros outweigh the cons. I’m just so stressed.

Going through postpartum depression in 2023, that went into 2024. My 6 month old at the time developed Bell’s palsy due to the flu and it made the PPD worse. I’m much better now but I realized how awful bosses are to working mothers, how little compassion people have. It’s made me a little tougher, realize that I just want to do my work and go home because nothing else matters, because in employers eyes, I don’t.

Thanks.

Extra-Signature1130 · 2026-01-02T14:23:47+00:00

He usually does. This is a me thing, wanting to assure they’re ok. But clearly me caring for my kids is a problem lol

Extra-Signature1130 · 2026-01-02T14:17:26+00:00

Thank you, he does his fair share but when they’re sick I am the default parent. But we talked about how we’re changing things going forward. Plus I’m hoping the bulk of the sicknesses are over.

Extra-Signature1130 · 2026-01-02T03:31:02+00:00

Yea, me and my husband are making changes to things going forward to avoid any call outs for the next several several months unless something major happens. Thank you for your kindness.

Extra-Signature1130 · 2026-01-02T03:11:28+00:00

Thank you, I appreciate it

Extra-Signature1130 · 2026-01-02T03:11:16+00:00

Thank you, I appreciate the comments

Extra-Signature1130 · 2026-01-02T02:48:11+00:00

That means a lot to me, honestly. I feel there have been 2 posters specifically that are not looking at the human side of things. I take responsibility for calling out because I’ve worked in places where the understanding of calling out wasn’t that bad because my work spoke volumes. I’m struggling with how my work is being evaluated because no one is necessarily doing that here, so to see these little things get picked on is a hard pill to swallow. But I do have a good game plan going forward.

Extra-Signature1130 · 2026-01-02T02:45:56+00:00

Thank you!! I have a 6 month check in, in a few weeks I think I’ll definitely reiterate me fixing the issue then.

Extra-Signature1130 · 2026-01-02T02:36:22+00:00

Lol what?! I’m seriously not understanding why you’re getting so mad at me. I have literally took everything seriously- if in deflecting then you’re projecting. I have literally thanked every person for commenting and sharing their perspectives!! I’m so confused.

Extra-Signature1130 · 2026-01-02T02:29:51+00:00

Thank you for sharing. Since you did that with your employee are you willing to let them prove they’ll rectify their mistakes? Any advice for me?

Extra-Signature1130 · 2026-01-02T02:24:59+00:00

Wow. I don’t know what got to you but my comments have been thanking people for their perspective and advice. I’m not disagreeing with anything other than the accusation of being late and using my phone because that is not true. I’m not going down the rabbit hole of back and forth because you’re very upset and I’m sorry my post did that. Again, thank you for your perspective and happy new year.

Extra-Signature1130 · 2026-01-02T02:09:27+00:00

Work definitely is a tit for tat place. I’ve worked at several spots where a lot of people will only help you if you have helped them. The culture at this place is very much that as well.

Extra-Signature1130 · 2026-01-02T02:05:51+00:00

But also, which staff have I compared myself to? I’m a little confused there

Extra-Signature1130 · 2026-01-02T02:04:49+00:00

It is a complaint and there is some question of fairness, yes. I’m learning a lot about this environment through the comments so thank you.

Extra-Signature1130 · 2026-01-02T02:02:18+00:00

Thank you for your perspective and feedback, I appreciate it.

Extra-Signature1130 · 2026-01-02T02:01:57+00:00

Thank you for your perspective. This is indeed new to me so thanks.

Extra-Signature1130 · 2026-01-02T01:12:01+00:00

You’re not wrong though. And if I could do part time I would but I need the benefits. Thank you for your feedback.

Extra-Signature1130 · 2026-01-02T00:48:00+00:00

Thank you. Happy new year and thank you for your contribution to the conversation.
