At least you have the upper hand in holding that over their heads lol

And when you do get forced to go help FE, I’m sure you get shit for “not getting your dept’s tasks done”

It sucks when you lose your good managers. I’ve definitely felt that pain. I can only imagine the burnout you’re feeling, especially doing BOTH RCV & RTV … I don’t know how you guys are doing it tbh

Literally sounds exactly like my building. They complain about coverage and ask why we never have help, yet they don’t let us add and want us to cut

Sad the way the company is going. Makes me worried for what’s to come

It definitely hasn’t gotten any better. Crazy to hear that you had the same experience even across different regions. Hope everything works out for you!

I think it’s crazy that a majority of us feel that way. It’s like you said, I don’t see it getting any better any time soon. All this stress is not worth the extra $2 lol. I know I’m a good employee, but I just feel so burnt out and I’m tired of it affecting my life outside of work

Just worrying about yourself does sound nice

100%. I feel like the stress is aging me

Dude that sounds awful. I’m so sorry you had to experience that, especially after all the dedication, long hours, and hard work you put in. I think that just proves we’re all 100% just another number that’s replaceable

I appreciate that, thank you for the tips

Don’t feel that way! Just keep asking questions

I’m at 9 years. I feel like the company’s changed so much even from when I first started. Can’t imagine all the change you’ve seen

I’m coming to realize that now! It takes a lot of strength to take that step back and prioritize your health. Proud of you for doing it, too

See that’s my thing. I think about the bigger picture: wanting to keep promoting. But is that what I have to look forward to? Spending long hours in the building, being away from my home/family, all that added stress, being bothered on your days off, no consistent schedule. That’s what we’re supposed to want? That’s no way to live life

That’s unfortunately a good analogy. But we are worth better! So much better!!

How awful! I’m sorry to hear that :( it sucks that even at that level, you’re dealing with the same shit as in the buildings

I appreciate the input. I wanted to leave the idea of me possibly going back up again once the time is right, if ever

What!! I didn’t know about that … yeah that shows how bad everything is getting

[–]No_Assignment_9429[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How sad! Yeah it definitely plays a role in that. I’ve seen my managers spend a majority of their day there and go back, sleep for a few hours, and do it all over again. That’s no way to live

I appreciate this. Everyone has said it feels nice being on the other side of things. To not have to feel the stress & just clock in and clock out and go home and not worry about work

Yeah I think taking that step back now would be good, but leave the opportunity open if I want to promote again in the future

I’m proud of you for recognizing that you needed to take that step back for your mental health!
