I only lasted 6 months but dang if you are chronically lonely, do not get an office job. Hurray for me for leaving though, I put in my notice today!! And now I work at the cafe that I used to attend every friday (if anyone remembers my cafe update posts tee hee)
I was not doing great mentally and it took me 5 2 week notices printed, 2 being turned in. And now I finally quit without even giving my two weeks. Though it seems a bit unprofessional for me to do, I genuinely just had enough of this place. I love all my coworkers, they were all nice to me but if this job is hindering me from my success, I fear it is not worth it. My boss is still hoping for my return and said I can take a mental break, but I can’t take another shift with nothing but stress. My favorite coworker also quit so I left on his last day of working since we also kinda told each other we’ll quit together. Haha life is so awesome.
after five years of grad school and subsequent job search, i can finally say i have successfully changed careers 😭 i start my new job counseling kids at a community mental health clinic on Monday. yesterday was my last shift at the grocery store that was an escape from my horrible corporate job and a sustaining force throughout grad school. it’s so bittersweet to leave the sweetest coworkers i’ve ever had and the most fun i’ve had at work. it’s immeasurably healing to quit a job for only good reasons. my coworkers got me a cake, everyone wrote notes in a card, and the goodbyes throughout the day made my heart swell. i even got to tell the good news to my favorite instacarter 🥺 after i clocked out for the last time, my friends joined me for gelato at the cafe and we strolled the store for a final time, this time as simply a loyal customer.
I just put in my 2 week notice for my job that was becoming extremely toxic and taking a toll on my mental health. It feels so good being able to move on and look at other opportunities
…not ☹️.
For whatever reason I keep posting and then deleting my recs immediately. I’ve gotten shy on here. I used to be so bold. I don’t know what happened !!!
I’m currently in the back seat of my friend’s car listening to their future plans. It’s lowkey terrifying me. However….take this as your sign that you don’t have to know what you want. You’re not alone!!!
