I have just accepted a job offer to escape from my toxic workplace. It is a longer commute and not quite as well paid but my current manager has done the following:

Torn apart my work in front of the entire office.
Told me my dd was experiencing anxiety as " I'm a stressy person."
Told me i shouldn't be in healthcare.
Was working from home on my 2nd week there so i had to work alone with no support.
Guilt trips me into doing extra hours etc.
Wrecks my confidence.

Shame as everyone else is lovely.

Hate people who out in the work place tell you, you are so stressy, just no need for it, it achieves nothing.

You never know you might make the wage back. Started the year work from home at £18,600 (before I got ahead of myself and ended up in a company where I literally was on no-one's team, sure would have earnt loads of money to be as unhappy as sin and as a girl friday floater in one of those types of places I envisaged getting turf out in a few months on) before I ended up in the latest place, I got an increase from the job taken on recently at quite desperate measures at £18,250 to £19,760 in a week.

That's brilliant news!
Yes you need to get out of that toxic place. Do you get a leavers interview, I'd be telling HR exactly why I was off

It is the right thing. It is no life to be miserable every day at work.

I feel bad as i have only been there 7 months and in general the staff are great.The main boss has stopped me working with the main issue but even so there are more opportunities in this new place.
