Oh Jesus fucking Christ, I’M so sorry that this is only getting worse and worse. I so hope you make it out and off to greener pastures soon!

Holy shit!

Yeesh, sorry to hear this keeps getting worse, and longer. It’s good that your local manager stood up in protest, but I’m also rolling my eyes how it’s always the principled ones who resign in snafu, and never the culpable ones.
Best of luck in your job hunt: it seems this was the signal everyone needed to seriously…

I’m not Ray😉😂🤣

“I’m just really scared they’re going to blithely ignore that date and refuse to let me go (there’s a severance package and retention bonus involved, and I have fucking *earned* that money putting up with all of this shit) per the terms of that agreement I signed back in February.”

Get better, luv!

Doctor here - lots of little sips of fluid works heaps better than big ones! Take care and hope you feel better soon!

Sending you all the good vibes for a hasty recovery!

Keep an eye on that sickness and I MEAN THIS if you aren't better in a day or two, call a doctor. Stress and sickness is a bad combination.

I’ve got no advice, just hope you feel better soon!

You’re doing everything right, me thinks. I super-approve.

Thank you for telling me about the Tati stuff! I never bother with the online beauty world, but love diving in when it goes batshit like this!

OMG that Tati stuff. I watched the whole video and about 8 million of the response videos. I don’t even really watch Beauty youtubers, I just like drama. 

Contrary to your boss, you’re handling this like a boss.

Yes! Yes! Yes!

Starred to ungray.

Heh. It sounds like your co-worker putting his foot down is a good lead to follow--and your manager is on the same page with you both. Also, if your firm hasn’t heard of webinar or 1:1 video con training capabilities, there really is no hope for them.

Yay crafts! Thanks for starting a thread :)

I can understand why you’re torn, that sounds like an incredibly frustrating situation. But nearly 5 months of income is better than just accrued vacation. And obviously I don’t know your financial situation and you’d know your own job field and how long it might take to get a job, but from what I've read, it takes…

You in 3 1/2 months: Take the money and run! I’m sorry that you are having such a hard time. Get thyself that financial cushion, though!
