Your Job Doesn’t Care About Your Mental Health

8:19 beautifully said, as a physician who is recently out of the workforce secondary to middle management bullying and ensuing mobbing via various psychological manipulative strategies including influencing social cognition. During my time at the university I aimed for excellence and quality and this reflected by the patient demand and press ganey scores but it burned me out and I was open with leadership about this, paradoxically the answer was to not to help by respecting my requests for a different nurse as mine was consistently inconsistent, disorganized (if you have adhd and your counterpart is disorganized it’s a disaster), and communication difficulties (not language but lacked close loop communication) which lead to increase time in office but decreased productivity which means I couldn’t help as many people as I did with a good fit nurse. And even bringing up the non-fit and encouragement to transfer the nurse refused so you’re in your dream job, nothings perfect, accept learned helplessness.
The organization was proud to offer “yoga at work” zoom sessions in the early evening and I figured it’d be great to do something other than work 10-15 hrs a day, the kicker—I literally was the only person literally in their office with work clothes everyone else was in the comforts of their home.
Oh, they also gave us this chat. Therapist app called woebot. It was the worst, if I wanted to talk to something and it respond with something completely non sequitur, I would call my dad.
And to sweeten the burnout I guess a middle manager found it to be a weak spot and became one of his long line of targets traumatically ousted.

Trying to get 40 hours of labour out of someone when they can do the same amount of work in 30 hours ! So true.

I don’t really care what an employer thinks about my mental health. I go to work to make just to get paid for the amount of time I set for myself. If they got a problem with me , then I’ll just leave .

This is currently happening at my hospital. Number one in the nation my @$$!!! We are ALLLLL BURNT the FCK OuT!!! && Ima getting sick && tired of the patient mortality rates and mental health of my fellow coworkers deteriorating all while receiving the hospital's stoopid newsletters about the positivity they are doing in the community && expansion && braggin rights of what they accomplished for the year all while talking about how we should get 8 hours of sleep, eat a wellbalanced diet, talk to EAP if ur having a mental crisis or burn out!! Fyi on TWO occasions i was escorted to the ER because I was suffering from suicidal ideations for a shit load of issues i was experiencing during my shifts, with management && just personal life. Its now even WORSE after the pandemic cuz the hospital has blown up in new AI technology && expansion in their building networks. I worked for about a decade at the hospital && honestly the amount of improvements the hospital has done to their interior and updated the decor and even upgraded technology is ASTRONOMICAL….but WHY, why do I feel so demoralized and exploited…i feel so numb, I just mask my feelings but at the same time I feel physically sick EVERY single time i clock in for my shift….if anyone considers joining the medical field, please, if u value ur sanity, dont.

I just feel trapped cuz the hospital offers good 401K package with matching, and other unique perks within the company.. I fear no matter which hospital i try to go in this corrupt city its all the same.

Like bruh. I have had LIKE 4 OR 5 PCPs in their internal medine dept known me for less than three office visits before they dip && either change careers or move outta state….the health care field && system is a nightmare….fyi ima currently dx with depression, anxiety, and bpd, possibly on the spectrum on the "higher functioning" end.

Jordan Peterson: Clean your room

another symptom of capitalism

Omg thank you for validating my desire to work from home. I always thought I was just being a lazy overly sensitive person! Deep down I knew that there was nothing wrong with wanting to work in the comfort of my own house. There's nothing wrong with not wearing down my car as much, avoiding traveling in dangerous weather, and not needing to get up early. There's nothing wrong with eating food as it suits me. There's nothing wrong with wanting a PRIVATE ON DEMAND BATHROOM. There's so many other benefits I could list. And you're right, there is no company culture lol. Sure I miss seeing people sometimes, but I can just stop by and visit then. Beats the "culture" of falling asleep in a boring, grey, dark, windowless room with tired people.

I work for Aetna as a clinician and I can totally relate to what you are saying. Personally, most of the time we do want to approve your requests for procedures but our hands are bond to company policies.

The way doctors have to chart makes me so glad I'm a dietitian. For inpatient care there is precisely one diagnosis that admin gives a shit about- severe protein calorie malnutrition. Otherwise none of my diagnoses are billable to insurance so I don't have to make sure I hit the key words and do the magic dance to make it fit an insurance companies criteria for coverage.

No amount of meditation or at work group activities can help keep lights on or pay rent. Just give me a damned living wage. That's what burns me out, working for wages that in 6 months when rents go up again, will remain the same and do even less in helping me. The stress and worry of not being able to survive is what burns me out, not the work itself.

83 dislikes from brainwashed bosses

I work for a huge name in energy, they don't care about you, the product, or the customer.

Listening to him explain that Drs haave whole seminars on how to bill at a higher rate just made me mad.

Spent almost 60 hrs a week and all I get from my supervisor is "oh no you cant produce the output without overtime, how about the deadline? You cant be late or in leave due to work fatigue".

It is my first job. Really shocked on his response. Fully decided to quiet quit now and find new work.

Shots thats why i call out here and there not all the time

Can’t stand the pitching of a damn app! Like f*ck you and your app 😭
