I don't think I've ever been THIS afraid to work for a company before, and I know I've never felt stuck like I do now. Most week nights I wake up either having a nightmare or some form of panic attack, and on those nights when I do sleep through, I wake up with the most forboding feeling imaginable.
I don't know too much, but I know just enough to make me uncomfortable. Since the takeover a year and a half ago, we've cut about half of our work force. I've seen many a good person be sent packing though not as a result of anything they've done. And, since starting this post, I've been called into the CEO's office only to learn that we're losing another. He's leaving of his own accord, which is nice, but definitely an ominous sign. We're a dying breed, it seems.
That said, I think it's time to get out. Hook a sister up.
I'm a hard worker. I like to help people, I'm fun to work with, and I want to be paid fairly for my time. Is that so much to ask?
