Toxic Work Environment

How can I continue to go to work and feel comfortable going to work or even excited and happy to go to work when I have that one toxic partner who is just all about negativity and makes it difficult for me to move on throughout my day and have positive vibes? What would be my next step? Do I put in my two weeks notice? Do I speak to management again and see if there's a different outcome? I'm not really sure what to do

Because these people are not listening. I've shown them how much I value them and by them not even doing a thing to help, they are showing that they do not value me. You are worth more. You deserve a job where you don't have this mental struggle every day because you're taking it home with you, you're waking up with it, all of this stuff, it's weighing you down and you don't deserve that. I don't need to tell you that

And, yes, I will take your advice into consideration, but how much more can I talk to them? What else can I say? If everything has been said within all these past months, and it's just getting worse day by day, it's mentally exhausting, and it messes with my anxiety. It really does. I suffer from anxiety and depression, and I want to go to work happy. I want to make the kids happy

Document everything!

Hello Alicia, sorry to hear you're going through this. Firstly and secondly I would document everything, every interaction you have with this person. I would have the date, the time of, as well as what's was stated. You don't have to be wired for sound, you don't have to be bugged or anything, but just document the days in which you have received mistreatment from this individual and create a diary of sorts

You should be able to focus on the kids, because at the end of the day, that's what the job is. So, yeah, I definitely recommend, like, if you can get others involved and to help you. It sounds like you're doing a lot, so I wish you the best of luck and thank you for sharing this on here. I'm sure others have gone through the same thing that you're going through

I did a fair amount of DNI and E and sexual harassment training in the workplace as a facilitator. And we covered a lot of these issues around confidentiality, around trusted advisors, around working with people to build a case. But more importantly, you tagged a mental health channel. And I really want to acknowledge that this is a really egregious experience for your heart and soul, and I want to acknowledge how painful it is. And I'm just so sorry you're going through it

My response to you is coming with 16 plus sorry. Now my voice is doing something weird but 16 plus years of leadership experience this experience. Experiences in the healthcare industry and I push for unfeathered communication and encourage and thrive off of being able to have a respectful dialogue with people who report to me and encouraging that same level of dialogue between peers because it is the way that we can achieve goals

However, I don't know, my coworker just started showing signs of verbal abuse and just being really disrespectful and not only to other staff members, but to the children as well. And I have voices to management. That's why I see that management here is not the way it's supposed to be. For me, personally, I believe they just everything under the rug and go about their day because they have about three people who do not need to be in early child development settings

My daughter has grown, but I would hesitate at sending her to school in this day and age. The only thing as far as advice is, I think you need to go to the top. You need to schedule a meeting with the top somebody higher up than you have been talking to, because clearly they don't have any cares about the situation. And that's not okay. It's not okay. And I hope you get it resolved. Best of luck to you

How do you know what to do when something like this comes up and you have no support and it's just you don't know if other instances come up and how they're going to treat it. So I think that you are in the right place to consider other schools. And I know there's better schools out there. It's tough, but I've left the toxic schools, and then I found out better ones. I'm wishing all the best. Yeah

Just wanted to follow up on your post and send empathy 💜 #reply #advice #mindfullness #wellness #selfcare

Or most of us, I would say, know that that's just not the standard we expect from a workplace. It's very poor on the end of work ethics and just integrity and such. Those are the sort of places such as the workplace that you're supposed to be getting a job done. So it makes it very difficult for the people that are coming in to be able to get that job done when the environment around them is not structured properly right

Sorry, just to correct that there, for my last post there, I addressed it to the wrong person to it was supposed to be to Alicia Murray 87 and whoever else is listening, I know that was her original post, so I just wanted to correct myself there. Sorry, I noticed afterwards. Thank you

But I really encourage you to really listen to yourself, to your body, to your mental health and your mental needs when you're deciding what to do. And I'm not a particularly religious person, but I found that meditation and kind of trying to center myself through journaling, through writing things out has really been able to help me make difficult decisions like this and be at peace with them
