The HR thing I posted about never went away and I got fired today. Already applied for unemployment so at least I'll now get paid while I search for another shitty job and I won't be spending $300 a month on gas just to get to work.
It's kind of a relief in a way. This job was a major source of stress for me and it's not like I'm the only person they've fired recently. They've been letting people go left and right, getting rid of long-time veterans to cut down on wage costs I suppose, so I'll just take the L, chill the rest of the day, and try to get some things done around the house.
i almost walked off the job today after hitting my bullshit limit... i took my badge clip off my pants and put it in my drawer, cleaned out my coffee cup and stuck it in my bag, and prepared to walk out the door after i got a purple in the face "WHAT ARE YOU EVEN THINKING??" response to an innocent question about some shit that isn't even my fucking job to deal with but was thrust upon me as everything always is.
i was just waiting for one more fucking word from anyone and no one said anything so I took a nice walk around the office neighborhood for 30ish minutes, got a coffee, and fucked around for a bit before going back and packing my shit up, and heading home early.
i fully expect to be fired at the drop of a hat as soon as they can find someone they think will be a better doormat but at this point i think i'm gonna end up just leaving before that happens.. can't do it anymore.
also, good luck with everything.. the job market is hot garbage but spamming enough applications tends to get some hits!
