my new salary now is 2% less than my old salary. I don’t see your point.

career advancement was impossible under my old circumstances

it’s quite clear to me that me prioritizing my personal life over work made them insecure about themselves. Not listening to their forced, unasked and unwanted advice made them insecure about themselves. Working in a way that made sense to myself made them insecure about themselves.

When someone defies another person’s personal truth or reality, that has the potential to cause the other person to feel insecure about themselves.

With those people, I end up giving them short and vague responses until they leave me alone. They don’t deserve anything more.

holy shit, leaving was the correct decision. I always felt I didn’t fit in because they expected me to be one of them, always subordinate to them, a useful idiot who would only work as they wanted.

I’m also glad I left. godspeed!

what an interesting point of view. I like it.

Some people care more about money and titles than personal well being.

correct, ironically this applies to this community as well.

I see what you did there :D

management is sneaky, right? all my coworkers love drinking the koolaid.

Everyone wins!

no, I’m afraid you don’t understand. Yours is what a rational solution looks like, the ones in charge of the unit don’t want this, they want to control at what time I enter the unit.

If you have 2 older coworkers on a power trip looking for any excuse to explode on you for any perceived slight they are going to use this as ammunition.

It’s though a superb idea and I’ll be using my phone to record those first minutes and be ready to be ridiculed for it.

I need to quit.

somebody who gets it…
