This Is The Type of Job You Should Quit | Mel Robbins "Work It Out" 

Sounds about walmart

Safeway

Unifi

You hit the nail right on the head with this one 👏 👌 💯

Sounds like my job 🤦🏽‍♀️ I've been working two peoples job, mine and an open position since the beginning of March. I have a great boss and work for a great company but I'm so unhappy with what I do. And the money is good 😩 I want to quit so bad!! People think I'm crazy for wanting to quit.

Yep. And when you finally find that one that's going nicely, they (the bosses) up and change something in your working day out of the blue that wasn't in the contract or the advert, didn't get mentioned in the interview, and they know you don't want to do it but they're going to make it look like it's good for you somehow, with the "We don't want to cut your hours" spin, or something. It just ruins everything.

Yep

And they get the pay raise and promotion

This is worthy of being a quote ❤. Seriously the mindset of forcing yourself to stay for a salary because you need it is an indoctrination I believe .

Know when to hold them 🎶 Know when to fold them 🎶 Know when to run 🎶

My boss is a bitch, she interferes in everything I do and doesn't let me do my work. I am now searching for another job.

I'm not letting any person make me quit my job...if they have a problem..oh well...if they want a fight...professionally of course....they can have one....im.taking shit TO THE TOP...lol..now if I was messing up..that's different...but I'm mature enough to know when I'm not doing my best...so.thats my 2 cents...no one is moving me until i want too..people always just think..oh just quit .just find something else....well guess what there are shitty bosses and coworkers EVVVVVAAARRYYYWHERE!!!...so good luck bouncing around..instead of confronting the issues

@@ktee2313 I love your fighter instinct, but my 2 issues were with companies moving operations so there was no fight to fight.

@norton wayne I'm in the same boat wayne. You get to 50 and companies view you as old, paid too much, too much vacation time and more chance of missing work due to illness. Sometimes you are a victim of companies moving operations too. Don't take it personally and don't let them get you down. Keep your headup and keep charging. All of us in the same boat need to.

I just did! I'm released! Thanks for the confirm lol😅

Sameeeeeee3

Yeah I could do my job all day I just can't stand my coworkers

My coworkers suck so bad I hate it

Same

Key words “TOXIC AS HELL!!!!” I just quit a job for THIS very reason. The nurse manager and one of the charge nurse are bonafide narcissists. Just not worth it! Not worth my energy, my sanity or my health. I believe I deserve better and patients do too. I just hope they get it.

I worked a two person Job as just one person before it was rough, Glad I quit

God bless ❤

Keep going, keep pushing and keep evolving.

This is where I am at currently. I am happy to know that you are finding success!

I wanna do this but ive been stuck in the job for over two years. Im misarable but cant leave due too mental health issues and such. I wanna go too school for business but feel incredibly incapable right now of anything.

​@@dakotawells1727 I know it's hard but don't ever give up. You have options. Don't forget that imperfect action is better than perfect inaction. That being said I'm 48 years old and spent over a decade at a job I didn't care for. One day I said F it and never looked back.

Ayde Arias true true

Yet we are expected to know everything 😢😭

Smoking added nothing to this experience. It’s an addiction reinforced by a habit. I continue to be amazed by how smokers think it’s a character trait or some form of accomplishment. “I smoked a cigarette.” Why? If you had written that you injected heroin into your arm we’d all recoil at such a horrible coping mechanism.

Michael_M ok, I think you missed the point. Relax, I don’t smoke, anymore. It was just a phase I had picked up for a few months. I was only smoking three cigarettes a night, and I quit.

Totally jumped on your own issue with smoking there and missed the point

God damn busted out the totinos? You’re a beast. Hope you’re doing well brother!

​@@remlyai went home. Shot some heroin. Ate a totinos pizza. Went to bed. And dreamed. I was. The pizza.

After 15 years in the financial service sector I have been fired once because of cost reductions, got my team restructured twice and have seen almost every kind of bad, sub-optimal as well as some good working environments. In my experience great bosses don't last, some MD or CEO comes along every 3-4 years and decides to wipe out a bunch of people to justify their bonus and you are left to pick up the pieces. I don't feel loyalty to my employer, at best to some of my co-workers, so I think working in these places is basically very similar to prostitution, I sell my services to bidders, do stuff I often don't enjoy to save up money. I can assure you most people in finance feel the same. They should worn graduates, you'll get to 40 with savings and a nice house, but you'll have spent the best years of your life doing tedious work, in many cases managed by toxic bosses, you will also have back/neck problems from all the sitting at a computer cringing your fists, and sleepless nights before client meetings with people you dislike, ah I forget you will get stuck in some of the most overcrowded and expensive cities in the world (London, Paris, NY, Milan, Frankfurt) that you will only manage to escape from during your holidays. I come from a small town in the country side and a humble family, love the outdoors, so I plan to get out of this racket next year and I am working on pulling this off from a financial perspective. Life is too short.

Yes, I'm in the same boat. Everyone just telling me "stop complaining, if work is hell, just quit!"... As if it were that easy! Finding a new job is no easy task, takes time + you may end up in the same situation as your current job, if the job type is the problem (as in my case). Switching to different type of work, especially if you're middle ages (like me) is hard, since you often have to start lower/take a (big) pay cut... Sigh... What we really need is to be taught how to stop giving a sh*t - cuz whether it's quitting and finding a new job, or staying a toughing it out, it's all so bloody stressful, making my insomnia worse, which is affecting my mental + physical health!

It depends on how bad it is. If a person is considering hurting themselves or it’s so bad that they are essentially in an abusive relationship but with their employer they need to leave. Being depressed everyday and fearful of going into work is not normal. It’s Stockholm syndrome and rationalizing staying in a situation you know isn’t right. There are other jobs.

@@lotstosay6359 True, you should not risk your health. But many older people think we can just walk off of a bad job, and literally physically walk into a new building and tell them “Mr. Boss, Sir, I’m your guy!” and get a new job with nothing but “gumption and a nickel in my pocket!”

@@lotstosay6359this is exactly what I did. I was getting swollen lymph nodes from the stress. So I said enough is enough. EDITED to add that I did not consider harming myself. I just knew that the place was a toxic cesspool.

I left even though i knew I really shouldn't. 16 years, I couldnt stand the place. Management and some co workers were so toxic. Micromanage, gaslighting, retaliation, ethics violations, etc. Plus, the long hours of work was physically hard on the body and mentally draining repetitive task. We never knew what time we were leaving for the day. They called it " open-ended ", meaning we couldn't leave till the work was done or management says so. Didn't know if you would be home for dinner or have time to run errands. Thank God I left. I had no job lined up but i was close to a nervous breakdown from the stress. I dont regret leaving one bit.

i like this, it is what it is :)

Going through same situation 😢😢

Try temp work. Then you will have choices each day.

Yeah but the great thing about dating is you can stop doing it if it sucks and you have bad luck you can't stop working most likely so it's not exactly the same.

How is it working out so far?

my job has been having layoffs and a part of me lowkey wished I was one of them yikes lol

This is me too. It would have been okay if they are more understanding... but they act as if they have mastered their job a week after they are hired. They lack patience...

i m interested n committed both, and the money works for me

I like that. Thanks!!!

@@ronaldwilkins3027 No problem, have a great day Ronald :)

Im interested, because of the high pay, but not commited, so i'm just going to quit in a few months and take care of my mental health...

Even if that means losing sleep, losing work life balance, losing spare time for R&R, losing the opportunity to be causal and always rushing everything from breakfast to dinner no chill, losing freedom and peace in replace of stressful hurt locker, losing peace of mind and always worrying about work first and last minute of the day, above all losing time with your family. As a business analyst I confess the time you lose is not worth the the money made.

Vega North, and the bottom line being most workers get treated like crap these days, put up with way too much abuse, are fearful to say anything to these slave labor behemoths and are fired at will for any reason. These corporations, mainly underpay, hire workers who are poor or disadvantaged and become million and billion $ profiting entities with too much power. It’s greed based economics at its finest or what some like to call a free enterprise capitalist system, which only really works for the mega rich in reality, while a majority suffering in a perpetual hamster wheel.

What I was going through. Job searching currently. Sharing this. It's such a good way of explaining the situation.

Just curious,do you also have work pressure in the IT sector in Saudi? BTW I'm from India.

@@Takeitasyouwant4372 No, I don’t work in IT.

Same. In pain most of the time. Had to go on medication cause the place was so toxic. I developed depression and anxiety. My body hurt all the time. Even as I left, the damage was done. Dealing with neuropathy, degenerative disk, muscle and joint pain that never goes away. The job messed me up and now I'm paying for it. I should've left my third years into the job cause that's when all the repetitive stress injuries began. They pushed us beyond our work limits and gaslighted all the time. So glad I left. Still dealing with the horrors of that job and it's been 2 year out.

@@brendaechols5929I feel your pain, literally. I hope you at least recovered from the financial loss. Losing the full pension killed me. I’m 60 now and still have to work through the financial and health related problems. One thing in life for sure, no one gives a shit. You have to survive on your own .

@Den Well good advice effective it's hard to follow.

So true. I broke out in hives once. I was miserable but no matter what happened I needed a job. It wasn't the best paying but it was more than minimum wage.

@@bonniedavis9076 Meanwhile you can keep looking for a better job, consider the current one as a bridge and keep searching until you find what feels right. Wishing you the very best

This right here is my problem. The job is fine, even the supervisors are ok, it's the COLLEAGUES who suck and make work life miserable. It's why I'm looking into jobs where I can work autonomously and not have to do the "teamwork", "collaboration", "we're a family" bull$#!t with all these lazy, gossipy, incompetent people.

@@Ophelia11 same! I got noise canceling headphones with hopes that people will get the hint and leave me alone. They can't fire me for doing a great job...even though I don't want to be anybody's friend.

She's lying to you. Go to your new job and don't look back.

Well...don't expect your colleague to understand your situation once they got promoted, I have noticed this, the moment a person gotten a position, there will be a character changed as they have to defend the position somewhat. I'm glad you're strong enough to walk out and I hope that you'll gonna have a better job. Do envision that it is coming to you. I pray only good things coming to you. May God bless you.

@@georgejetson9801 Yep, 100% agree She's lying

It's 2 years later. Need an update to what happened.

I’ll be straight up with you, the reason every single person is unhappy is because we have stripped ourselves from Jesus. Look at the USA right now.. Read the entire book of Job, it was written for you and your trials. Or read Jeremiah 20. Jesus the prince of all peace loves you. You might just be at that point where you are ready to be saved from all this. Put your trust in him and not in your dollar.

@@ohnobo14that same Jesus created evil as well, read your bible.

@@Dzanarika1 where does it say that? The Bible says God allowed evil to come into the world through Man because of Mans choices. Calamity disaster and death are because of sin, which we chose rather than being close to God.

@Den Well ugh that sucks. It wouldn’t happen to be Sandoz, would it?

Please seek help. There's work out there. Take anything you can and keep applying. You got this!

Am planning or resigning from my horrible job soon. Life worth so much more

You could end it all, but then those who did you wrong, won. Don’t let them win

Get some temp work and work on your resume.

Spruce up that resume and send them out all day, every day and most of the night.

Great advice.

It's going to get better. Maybe not on this job but there will be more sunny days.

Been through that too. If we complained to management or their bosses, our boss would write us up. Basically make up a story and lie. It was retaliation. District manager never did anything cause she was friends w her.

How you doing now?

@@medianikophotography changed job, the feeling is still there but not as bad

Find another job. Update your resume

@@pinkfuture8275 I finally quit! I’m in search for other jobs now

He got mental problems get out before it's too late he gaslighting you by being nice one day and mean another it's a form of manipulation. Only little baby's bring home life to work you need a babysitter for him and a real job.

The best thing to do is resign. The mental abuse will weigh on your mind and debilitate you. It's not worth it. Mine was a complete turn off and I could not stand to see him breathe so I left 🎉

PrisonEarth the best freedom would be working for yourself and doing financially well! At least that’s my opinion. Most employers abuse, use, and spit you out whenever it’s at their convenience which is generally close to retirement, when you’re sick, or no longer stupid enough to happily drink whatever they’re giving you! Call me a bit job jaded by now, if you will. I’ve seen way too much by now.

Lol! I agree!

That's not a good sign. Quit now!

Hold on bro it's gone get better
