“I didn’t get a pay raise, promotion, or even a pat on the back.”
"During the pandemic, I got a job in an office that paid minimum wage and had me waiting on a bunch of rich people hand and foot. The low pay and the poor treatment I received pushed me out of my job. I quit and found a new position in the same company and will be starting very soon.""After months of being unhappy at work, I decided I had enough when I saw my boss talking shit about me on Slack. We were on a Zoom call and my boss unknowingly messaged me and someone else about me.
"My trainer exaggerated the situation to my boss and I knew immediately that this place didn't have the right culture for me.""I was working in HR and found out that my direct peers with similar experience were being compensated $20-30k MORE than me. I knew my worth and when I said I was leaving, I was offered a management role. They said, '"I am a full-time medical student and teach children's dance classes part time.
After that, I applied to a new company and received an offer that was DOUBLE my yearly Smithsonian salary.""I was a first grade teacher. I worked at a low-income school for seven years, where I was underpaid and overworked. I loved the kids and the staff, but we were constantly verbally abused by parents during the pandemic."
"This was all without proper PPE, and no additional support if we were exposed to COVID. I was sad to leave my clients, but it was no longer safe.""I was working as a teacher in Washington, D.C. until today. Despite the huge increase in COVID cases and pediatric hospitalizations, the district is forcing all the schools to go back in person."
