I understand that not everyone is fortunate to have money saved to be able to have the leeway to leave jobs whenever they feel like it and so forth. But I just feel like people have lost their sense of self-respect when it comes down to employment.

I am a firm believer that if you are working at a toxic place and are being harassed or bullied, to stand up to that behavior and tell them that you’re not going to take their shit, and if they continue you fucking quit and never look back.

I have known people who have not had a savings who have done this in the past and they end up finding a decent job that doesn’t treat them like shit. Do you feel like job Seekers don’t defend themselves anymore?

    That’s how the real world works. It reflects on your maturity.

    There is no exception, even if you’re the damn president. Do you see any world leader stepping down because of mean comments that hurt their feelings?

      Many folks online simply can’t imagine there are folks that aren’t nice to them, and there’s nothing to be done about it.

      There’s a difference between negative interactions and truly toxic workplaces. I believe you are describing the former.
