Hi!

Should I leave it off my resume? The company was mad that I quit so I worry that they will leave a bad reference if they are contacted for employment verification.

I accepted, signed, and took a copy of the contract and then submitted it to her. She then called me in and put me on a plan of assistance with the stipulation that if I did not sign the plan, she would rescind the contract. Is this legal?

Need to find a coach to help me with figuring out career change - I am burnt out at my current role, although I am told I am good at what I do. I don't like the company anymore, but doing the same thing for a different company does not entice me. How much would a good executive coach charge for working with me, helping figure out what I want, resume and even job search strategy? Thank you

This lady is on maternity leave currently and there will be no substitute for her till she resume, which would be another 7 months easily. I had discussed this with the head and requested to find a substitute as two people managing the department would be difficult. I have a 10 months old baby and aged mother at home. So i had made it clear that stretching beyond a limit, may not be possible for me as i need to support home as well. He had assured me of assigning someone else in her place. But now he has changed his mind. He said we need to share the load. The working hours i am putting my maximum effort to finish the tasks and not to keep anything pending. But i do not feel supported. He had taken leave on couple of crucial days when the workload was expected to be more and i had to manage it all alone. Also on many days he comes late to office citing personal reasons like his daughter’s badminton tournament, parent’s meeting at her school so and so. Also sometimes for official work he goes out and would return only after quite some time. He has taken up the work done by the lady who is on leave and most of the days he would do only that and rest everything i need to take care. So i feel i am doing two people’s work and he is taking advantage of me. He sits late in the office but only to finish the pending works which he has taken up on her absence. Also he is coming to office on weekends to finaih that. So other people in office is looking down on me as though i am evading work and putting all the work load on him, which i am finding so hurtful and embarrassing. There is no option of talkibg about this to higher ups because he is very close to them and convinced them that 2 people are enough to run the department. As i am new here i do not have the rapport with others as he has. I am finding this extremely stressful and on the verge of an emotional breakdown. I am not having any support system at office. How to handle this without me bursting out in anger/emotionally which i am afraid that might happen anytime?

The last three years has destroyed my mental health and each job I move to it seems to be getting worse. Toxic work culture is real. My current company knows that I have complained about the bullying but they do nothing about it instead they encourage me to take a sabbatical. The problems will be the same, I have major anxiety so not sure if I could even relax and not in the mood to strategize how to deal with toxic work environments. Everyone on this page complains about it. How can we stop this !!

Recently, I took a career assessment and it came back with these 3 areas: top talents (execution, compassion, and inspection), solid talents (justice, discernment, logic, organization, connection, and communication), and passion (advocating, caregiving (I enjoy taking care of people), and finishing (whatever it is I started)). I know I don't want social work or teaching. I have no idea where to start.
