Hi!!! Well, it's always terrible to be at a bad situation at work. It's a place where you have to be what? 8 hours a day? So yes it is pretty bad to feel outcasted and bullied. In my case, I'm a little (very) shy so people think this gives them the oportunity to laugh at me or make me feel bad whenever they want. There's a woman who makes me specially uncomfortable since she laughs at me everytime I make a mistake or turn red if I feel ashamed (which happens to me constantly), it's like she was my boss because her eyes are on me most part of the day. I've been neglected from meetings, celebrations and so on, to a point where, willinlgy I decided to stop hanging out with those people. The job is stressfull, it's in the purchase department and sadly this woman is part of my team. I perceive her as a malicious person who intentionally wants to hurt me. All this stress in terms of workload has led me to feel anxious and depressed to a point where I had to start taking Xanax. I thought I had one friend there who was also new but she seems to have been accepted in to the "clique" and has began to make fun of me as well. At the end I began thinking what was the point in it, I was putting up with a very uncomfortable situation for the sake of a job that I don't even like? (it's a very steady and routinary job which I honestly hate and think is wasting all my strengths and abilities.), so I quit!!! I quit a few weeks in advance so I still have to be there for one more week, but trust me, you can't imagine the peacefull feeling I got when I gave my resignation letter to my boss and explained him the reasons I was leaving. I won't lie and say this week will be awesome, but I still have debts to pay and everything. What I want to tell you is that, no matter what, no one in the world is condeemned to their unhappiness. I know quitting is scary, and sometimes it might feel like you're letting yourself down because you are resigning. But it's not, it's being brave enough to embrace the challenges that come along with your happiness!!! Because at the end of the day that's all that matters, that you and your child are happy!
