Burnout Survival

I am so tired.

Had to leave my present job (I was a Housekeeper) to save both my sanity and peace of mind. Worked and worked under a toxic boss to physical and mental exhaustion, while getting constant verbal disrespect. Need change of pace and do something that I love instead. Thanks...

I was an HR supervisor (min wage) in houskeeping. Good for you for quitting. It was horrendous to see what you all went through daily. You had to clean an entire room in 20 minutes and any wrinkle meant you were forced to redo the entire room. The pay was $6 an hour and I am not joking. If you were finished early you'd be fired for doing nothing. Even if there was nothing to do. It was modern day slavery imo. They took advantage of women with little job prospects. One woman had a college degree and owned a home but the housing crisis meant she had to work for benefits for her son. That's why I have an issue with MAGA, were we ever great to the people who make our lives so much better like housekeepers? We want a nice life but don't realize that people have to clean the sheets you sleep on to give you the vacation you worked for and can afford. Makes me mad.

Sounds like you did the right thing. Been in that situation and had to walk away. My mental health was not worth the toxicity.

About this group

We are in this together. Burnout is real and it can impact every single part of your life. The good news: This is your space to share, connect, learn and lean on other women who have been where you are and are ready, willing, and able to help you get where you want to be. It can feel lonely. If you are a director, manager, or team leader you can't talk to your peers at work for fear of being seen as weak. You can't talk with your boss or leadership board because you ...Read more
