co-worker troubles
I'm starting over here because I need a space where no one knows me. My old blog got discovered by too many people in my real life, and I caught myself holding back. I can't stand doing that. Plus, I need a place where I can actually vent about the people I deal with every day without the fallout.
Things have been really rough with a coworker lately, and honestly, this job is starting to suffocate me. I can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong, but it feels like I'm walking on eggshells. Everything I do is either picked apart or assumed to be done with bad intentions, which just isn't true. It’s exhausting. I can’t just be myself or speak my mind. Whenever I try to weigh in, my ideas just get steamrolled, buried, or totally ignored.
Honestly, I don't even know what I bring to the table anymore. What is the point of me even being there? I'm just trying to put my head down and get through the work right now. The reality is, I need the paycheck. So, I keep showing up.
Note: I used AI to change my style of writing to be truly anonymous. The feelings however are real and raw.
