"For handing in my notice today and I know it will be a shit conversation. Ugh, please send vibes from the positivity possum and cake... Thanks in advance Miss D" Good luck. I did this myself a few months ago and am now near the end of my notice period. Firms try to create beliefs that people belong in a firm, or owe the firm loyalty to stay, or whatever, but this is really simple ... you have a contract of employment with them, and one of the rights in that contract is to terminate it and leave. It’s just business. It’s just business when they make decisions that staff are unhappy about and it’s just business when you decide to take your life or career in a different direction. The firm may not be happy that you are leaving, and if that is the case that’s a positive, shows you were doing a good job. But most of all, you leaving is an inconvenience for them, as they need to replace you, are losing experience etc. But that is their problem! Don’t let them try to make their problem your problem. Good luck! | |||

Mentally and emotionally " Sounds like a right cow. You have to wonder why people behave like that. Chances are she is just jealous of you as you look amazing. Feel free to point the finger right at this person when you are asked why you are leaving. Quite possible that this sort of behaviour is not news to your bosses | |||

"Thank you all! It means a lot to have so much love and support from you all I never got the opportunity to speak to my boss, she was either busy or out And I agree with everyone saying it being a grievance. I plan to I just want to see what her response is to it first before I raise it formally In the past I've requested a mediation meeting with this person who has refused it. " That’s disappointing for you after getting ready for it Stick at it, you’re doing the right thing | |||

I’m the end I moved to a different role in a new department and had never been happier. It was my dream job without even knowing it. I’m only sharing my experience because sometimes your gut instinct to move on or away is the right one. You can fight back but you still end up moving on. I hope you get support and peace soon lovely if not do you want us to beat her up and steal hers sandwiches?? | |||

Just makes my blood boil that people can put others through that! I've had issues since I started there and always thought that it must be me, am I too sensitive? Could I have deeper issues I tried to raise the issues during supervisions and she would query my mental health, am I perceiving things because of how I felt and I thought well it must be me.... Now I know it's not, the place was causing my mental health, it is a vicious circle Glad you got free and much happier x | |||

"So I handed in my notice. My boss was as expected "maybe this isn't for you" speech I relayed my reasons and concerns which was met with "oh you know what working with women is like" I responded "and there was me thinking I an working in a professional environment with grown adults Apparently my mental health factors in my perception of what things are said As for the lies that was met with "yeah well people assume" But on the plus side I only have to give 3 weeks notice as the 4tg week is my annual leave anyway " Yaay, well done | |||

Will you get to do an exit interview with HR? | |||

"For handing in my notice today and I know it will be a shit conversation. Ugh, please send vibes from the positivity possum and cake... Thanks in advance Miss D" You’ve got this! You’ve outgrown the company cos you’re fab and the next part of your journey will be awesome!! Good luck | |||

Mentioning mental health could be grounds for discrimination though. Still though, you're out of there now. The only way is up. | |||

Definitely. But I'd also think you may have a case for constructive dismissal. If you've got any work emails related to the difficulties you've had - make sure you save them so you've got the evidence trail. I found it so stressful that I didn't take them to tribunal but wish I had in hindsight. Employers need to be kept accountable for this behaviour - blaming your mental health ffs. Hope you feel great now you've done it! | |||

Using mental health to gaslight you and as a tool to constructively dismiss you is unacceptable. Make sure you take any examples of things that have happened with you when you leave and if you do have someone there you trust ask them if they be a witness to any situations they saw that you have a record of. If you have stuff like this it’ll help you at citizens advice to take legal action. I think you have up to 3 years after leaving to follow it up if you want to. I know you might want to leave it all behind you but consider it because it might help any doubts you have about yourself. And enjoy that week off knowing you have a better work life ahead of you xx | |||

"Thank you for all the support and kind comments. I'm torn at taking it further, she can't keep doing it. However I feel the best action to take is to walk out with my held high. And I got offered another job, same as what I am doing now but in a place closer to home. I worked there a few years ago and offered me the job straight off the bat and cancelled meeting everyone else they were due to interview So it feels like a weight has lifted " That’s fantastic!

I am amazing at my job, I know. 25 years of supporting families and caring for other peoples children. Children who now as 25 year olds remember me tell me this. Managing staff through nurturing and supporting people is key, my staff need love, support and positivity just as the children do. Why would they not? People rarely remember what you say but they do remember how you made them feel I've looked after babies of babies I used to care for and each one precious. I love seeing them grow wondering what they will be as adults, kids career or ASBO Treating people crappily in business tells me that you don't respect your business or yourself, why lower that standard? Self reflection is crucial here You deserve to ride horses and laugh at the rain, and you deserve so much more than those things as well. This is your time.... Will be thinking of you tomorrow, head up, stay strong and move forward xx | |||

I picked him up by his stubby little tail and put him outside the fenced arena. As I placed him softly on the grass the other side of the fence he turned and squeaked angrily at me, I swear he was shaking his fist. Whilst the horse I was supposed to be riding looked at me in the “I’m a bit simple” way that horses do as if to say “what doing with velvety squeaky thing?” ”. It was the single trigger point to me resigning. Life is beautiful if you just let it be beautiful | |||
"Thank you for all the support and kind comments. I'm torn at taking it further, she can't keep doing it. However I feel the best action to take is to walk out with my held high. And I got offered another job, same as what I am doing now but in a place closer to home. I worked there a few years ago and offered me the job straight off the bat and cancelled meeting everyone else they were due to interview So it feels like a weight has lifted " Great news. Sounds like your current job was just being poisoned by this person, then your boss was taking their side and gaslighting you. It's the sort of crap that nobody ought to have to put up with (far too common though ). Hopefully your new job will bring back enjoyment in your work, and being closer to home will cut your travelling costs (every little helps) and give you back a few minutes every day (really, time for ourselves is the most precious thing there is).
