Hello lovelies!!!!,
I feel so torn here, but I seek advice,as this is really affecting my mental, & emotional health.
I started working for this place about 2 years ago, and up until the last few months of last yr, I LOOOVED IT!!!!
Thing is , I'm casual, & this year my hours have significantly dropped,and their is one particular staff member who is very toxic!.....
The whole atmosphere is different,& I know this person has rubbed others the wrong way and clashed on a few occasions....there is also a past history with this person's previous employment.
I get so anxious the day before, I feel so neauseous,& teary......I have to break down the day into hourly increments just to get through the day.
I feel ostricised, like I don't belong,& I'm not wanted there..... they don't speak much to me at all.....
I am grateful for having the one day, but is it worth it when my mental,& emotional health is being greatly affected??...... I am so scared I won't find work again if I do leave.....
What would you do in my situation??
I am looking for another position,& sending my resume out there to many establishments,with no luck......
I am really not in a good place right now.....
DO I LEAVE OR TOUGH IT OUT?

I could have written this word for word girl. I have no advice but I feel stuck too
Just to clarify, you work one day a week, yeah?
If that's the case, ask yourself if that one day of work is worth the emotional turmoil. We all grumble about heading off to work but if it's leaving you feeling sick to the stomach on the lead up, there's something very wrong with that environment, very wrong!
There's work out there Hun, don't let fear keep you in this awful situation Xx
yes, it's just the one day guaranteed. I have 2 kids to think of,and I'm over 38.....I really don't want to do just any job,otherwise I'll be angry doing a job I hate . I want to be in a job that makes me happy....I feel so stuck and torn
This is a workers compensation claim. Do not quit. See your GP and phone the relevant authority in your state as casual employment is viewed differently in different legislation. But do not quit. My experience is the toxic person usually leaves in time and you just need to wait.... But you may need leave to manage that.
