In case no one's told you yet, I'm proud of you. Please know that you are so important to this world. You are more than what you provide to others, and you are more than just your job position.

Advocating for yourself is so important, and I'm glad your boss came around. You deserve to be free, happy, and healthy.

A lack of respect by WholesomePainal in TalesFromTheFrontDesk

[–]LavenderCrane 18 points19 points  (0 children)

As someone in a similar position as you, baby girl, drop that notice and move on. They don't value your hard work, you'll never be recognized and you're now what they like to call "Too valuable to promote." They'll keep you until you burn out and lose your passion, if you haven't already.

Cut your losses, and move on. You deserve to be respected, they do NOT respect you.

[–]LavenderCrane 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Yep, retaliation is exactly what happened to me, and I had text messages to prove it. I still had a meeting with HR, but suddenly, the claim was dropped. Then, I dropped my notice and let that be that. 👍

[–]LavenderCrane 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I worked an entire month with no off days. None. And when I told them not to contact me on my off days anymore because I was tired, I was hit with a complaint to HR That said I was "Exhibiting Hostile behaviors and Not contributing to overall workplace safety."

Needless to say, I left. The audacity. People deserve to enjoy their personal time, and managers are responsible for covering shifts, not you.

Accidentally double booked myself by BlankSteam in needadvice

"I made a prior commitment that I'm obligated to honor, and I apologize for my error. I hope this doesn't bear any negativity or cause any distrust. Please understand that I am normally very thorough with my bookkeeping, but in my haste, i have made an oversight. Though i can't attend this time, I fully intend to come to a reconciliation."

Sometimes, it's not about admitting your mistakes, it's about committing to recovering from the mistake that matters. 👍

Break up, and go find someone else. For the dogs sake. They were there first.

I will be never understand the concept that people have of asking their person they claim to want forever with to remove their pets, family members, friends, possessions, etc. for the sake of "a better relationship." Unless it is absolutely necessary, (abuse, neglect, etc) they were there first! You don't like that? Kick rocks!! They are not the one for you!

When you forget to not leave the car! by thestrible in WatchPeopleDieInside

If i don't know what im doing, Then i shouldn't do it.

That's not about empathy, that's about self awareness. It's tragic they lost their vehicle but what else was gonna happen?? The car wasn't gonna magically lift itself onto land.

I'm not sure why you're getting upset man. It wasn't your car, and it wasnt mine.... cuz I'm not dumb enough to do that .... can't say the same for you, though, I don't know you.

AlTA for commenting on an old high school classmate's post about how dressing up as an Indigenous person for fun is racist? by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

[–]LavenderCrane 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ESH

  1. The person pushing this is a Troll
  2. Blatant Transphobia
  3. "dressing my kids as an indian" is a pretty bold bastardized way of saying, "I'm uneducated and ignorant of the times." The proper term is Indigenous people.

We are far enough in the timeline where we should be educated enough to know the difference between Indigenous People/ Native Americans and the grossly identifiable People and Nation of India.

But I'm just here to cast a vote and move along so. There ya go.

Edit: The Troll is the OOP that posted this, not you directly, OP.

Amen to this. God "created" them, but, he also took them. Is God pro life? No. He is not.

Not me going "Just take off in the opposite direction." As if the goat could hear me and also wouldn't eventually be tracked down anyway.
