    Applied to a Job Feeling Miscellaneous Planning Thinking

    I've made the tough decision to leave my job after just three months. The management has been terrible, and the way my coworkers treat me is really affecting my mental health. I can't keep letting people walk all over me for just £11 an hour. I've been applying to a ton of jobs since I decided to leave, but so far, I haven't received any interview offers. I did get a call from a place I really want to work at, but I missed it and couldn't get through when I called back. I'm hoping they'll reach out again or that I can follow up with them soon. My biggest concern right now is how to give my notice. I know I only have to give two weeks, but I'm worried they'll make those last weeks unbearable. I want to approach my managers professionally, but I have no idea how to say it without sounding rude. I dread going into work tomorrow, especially since I won't be with any of the nicer coworkers. I was hoping to give my notice then, but I think it's better to wait until I have a job lined up. Is it bad to leave a job so soon after starting?

    Feeling Got a Job Miscellaneous Thinking

    I recently started a new job about three months ago, and I'm really struggling with anxiety related to it. Every time the schedule comes out, I feel a wave of dread wash over me, counting down the hours until I have to go in. The work environment is mixed; some managers are strict while others are more relaxed. However, I can't shake the feeling that some of them don't like me, especially one particular manager who seems to constantly have an issue with my performance. Just a few days ago, she pulled me aside and bluntly asked, "What's the point in even having you here?" That hit me hard and has made my anxiety even worse. I find myself crying in my car before shifts, and it's really affecting my mental health. I've had nightmares about work on my days off, and I feel lost and overwhelmed. I need this job for financial reasons, but I can't continue feeling this way for the next several decades. I wish my family understood what I'm going through, as I just want my feelings to be acknowledged.
