How do I leave a toxic workplace fast?

[Anonymous]

I started working at this printing company last October and I feel working there has really impacted my mental health I’m always unhappy and I come home exhausted being around my work colleagues.

last week some girl didn’t show up to the office and went on the sick for mental health. I’m still in training and don’t know how to do things fully and I’ve been put under pressure with the amount of work I need to complete. On Tuesday the business owner came up screaming at this girl and she stormed off home and the owner was screaming and shouting outside chasing her down the road. I feel like the office is just a headache as everyone is ranting and swearing out loud/ gossiping. I really hate the behaviour there as everyone acts like they are from the hood and I feel like I’m very quiet as I don’t feel like I could ever connect with kind of people.

I want to leave so bad I wish I never applied for this place and I’m dreading Monday already I feel like I’m stuck since they are very short of staff as people don’t last long in that company

Leaving a toxic workplace can be challenging, but there are steps you can take to make the process as smooth and stress-free as possible. Here are some suggestions:

1. Start searching for a new job: Begin searching for a new job that aligns with your interests and values. Update your resume and LinkedIn profile, and start networking with industry professionals.

2. Review your employment contract: Review your employment contract to understand your notice period and any other relevant details related to resigning.

3. Schedule a meeting with your manager: Schedule a meeting with your manager to discuss your concerns and intentions to leave. Be honest but professional about your reasons for leaving and provide feedback to help improve the work environment.

4. Submit a formal resignation letter: Submit a formal resignation letter to your manager, outlining your last day of work and thanking the company for the opportunity.

5. Tie up loose ends: Finish any outstanding projects and ensure a smooth transition for your colleagues.

6. Prioritize your self-care: It's important to prioritize your mental health and well-being during this transition. Seek support from friends, family, or a mental health professional if needed.

Seems like you will just be moving to a similar situation.
You need to learn to look after yourself better at work and leave it in the office when you come home.
