Got fired in April. Basically lost my mind after private equity turned our company into a sweatshop. Told my manager I didn’t want to work on a project anymore (albeit in a colorful fashion) after they pressured me to work while I was sick with COVID. They claimed I was refusing to work despite me actively working on it.

Got a job at a startup a few months later. Hate working here, but I’d like to own a house in the coming years. Can’t wait to leave.

FWIW I originally rejected their offer, for the reasons I now wish to leave.

I need a break :(
