By Lunatic Go To PostStarting a new job next week at the wealth management and financial services arm of a major US bank. Looking forward to the new challenge. Quit my previous job and been off work for two months. Pay is better than what I was previously got and I just recently had a big raise at my previous job. Will amount to a USD 18k salary bump in a few months. So like others have previously said never be too scared to change your job if you are unhappy.Awesome, good work lunatic
Leave psy-kun alone 😭😭
I'm sure he will find his way. He really should pursue building his own artistic brand. He doesn't need any middle man he can do it himself. He just needs to believe in himself.

By FootbalIFan Go To PostAwesome, good work lunaticThanks
Guys Trust me my parents and relatives were not happy about my decision. I had to have a real sit down with mother and tell her how I felt about it affecting my mental health before she finally took me seriously. They have the old world view to accept abuse and stick with shitty work situations.
Just today my father asked me to go into my old job and talk to HR because the MD - who is known to him - spoke to him about me wanting to resolve things. I didn't even get this through him or told him where I was applying to as I didn't want use him or other relatives to get my first major job. I haven't even told him what transpired or anyone besides close friends about the situation.
They just want to look good and are terrified of what I may say to those in power that would shed a dark light on their behaviour of some of the staff and management of the division I was in. Basically they just want things to be in formal writing when I literally don't have to because I unilaterally ended the contract which was in within my legal right to do so. I spoke to lawyer before I did this action. This whole thing is hilarious really. Too much high level politics which I fucking hate as my work output speaks for itself.
Anyways rant done.
The "go back and ask for your old job" a week after you quit always gets me.
Quitting for your own mental health and deciding your own self-worth is so important. Fuck the man.

Right so following on from the PC thread and situation regarding calling a Technician a nonce in work and getting a verbal warning for it.
This was a Monday morning, about two weeks ago. I dealt with three orders that were all way out of spec, so I couldn't run them through the machines I was operating. I switched over to a different machine. I normally run automatic plastic injection machines, but there's only two and due to the dud orders, I switched to a manual injection machine instead. Shit's all good with me, I get paid either way.
Anyway, I sit down at this manual machine, I do my checks and position the light in a way that allows me to check my end product easily and effectively. In the process of positioning the light, the fucking bulb fell out, lmao.
So I go over to the (nonce) Technician, and I ask him a simple question, "do you need a repair sheet to plug a light bulb back in?"
The fella, with all the attitude of a late 70s Lily Savage, shoots me a dirty look and says "Why wouldn't I need one?"
Clearly he was having a bad morning, whatever, don't care. I walked off to get a sheet and the ugly cunt followed me to carry on moaning because I dared asked if a repair sheet was necessary. I looked across at him, and said "it's Monday, I don't care, fuck off".
Cunt carried on hassling me and trying to talk down to me. So I fucking flipped.
Now with where we were both stood, all the factory management could see and hear us, as well as everyone else on the floor. You know how it is though, some people just piss you off in the moment so you don't give a fuck.
I was walking away, but then I turned around and confronted him. I squared up to him, asked him who the fuck the fuck he thought he was talking to. Yeno, that old chestnut. After some heated words from me, while shouting in his face I told him to "Fuck off you nonce"
At this point, an older woman I'm quite good friends with was grabbing my arm saying "it's not worth it" because she thought I was gonna swing for him, and the production manager who watched it all unfold came over and intervened. He pulled me aside all that. Afterwards I went out for a cig early, when I came back the light bulb plugged back in.
A couple days later, I got pulled into a meeting room with the production manager and a supervisor to go over the situation again and was handed a verbal warning.
Shit's been great since like. When I see out this month and I get some actual rights if in the event I get dismissed, and the warning only lasts until December.

By DY_nasty Go To Posti'll ask for the other americans hereYes, definitely. Slang for pedophile. “Epstein was a proper nonce”. It’s not something you would casually throw around like cunt.

The word nonce is properly hilarious. Something about the way it's pronounced then understanding what it means always gives me a chuckle.

yeh some people take it really seriously as well, like cunt.
Genuinely, I'm a quiet and calm person on the whole, but there's a certain dynamic to working in factories. Sometimes you've got to be ready to put the job second and put someone else in the their place. I wouldn't pull that kind of shit in in a office job or an otherwise well paid position, but it's knowing I can walk out of one job and into another with similar pay with no real consequence. When that's the hand you're dealt, you put your pride first.
What's the worst that can happen? I get sacked? I walk into another factory with a blag CV and references.
On the flip side, I wind somebodies neck in for the small price of a warning that'll mean nothing going forwards.

I should probably share more of my work experiences tbh. I had some classics back when I was in a protein powder place.
There was this lad there, Ste, about five years older than me but a properly bad methamphetamine head. Anyway, he had started seeing a woman working there and talking about her a lot. The relationship was awkward at best though, their first date together, she brought her Mum.
So one day, walking back from a break he was talking about her, talking about all the things he did for her. Cooking, cleaning, etc. I turned around and quipped with "BUT YOU STILL HAVEN'T FUCKED HER"
Nigel, another absolute dosser fucking picked him up, jumping around with him in his arms and laughing at him because of what I said. Proper embarrassed him like. Ste went to the HR department afterwards and they didn't even do anything about it. That's the type of company it was, they just weren't arsed.
Looking back on it, probably a bit of a cunt thing to say like, but I was sick of hearing about it at the time.
