The truth is, many employees do not really leave their job. According to a recent research, employees mostly leave their manager. If you care about your health (did you know that stress causes cancer and depression?), I would advise you to submit that resignation letter right at this moment. But not yet. You can think about that after reading this full article.
Maybe you feel bad about work not because you are working too much, but because you don’t feel appreciated, instead you are always put down. Maybe you always feel that your efforts will never be enough and that the company is better off without you, or maybe you would even choose a better boss over a pay raise.
If you have ever been depressed because of work and you think that it’s not because of your workload, rather, because of how bad your boss is treating you, it would be better to work it out first before submitting your
resignation.
Many employees would admit that they don’t mind about their workload, but they are more worried about their boss.
If that’s the case, speak up.
1) Talk to your boss
This might sound tough, but no matter how kind you are or how awkward you think it would be, you must not be afraid to speak up for yourself. I bet you have heard this phrase before: “Be kind, but don’t let people walk all over you.” But remember, they’re still your boss, so you have to be careful with your words and at the same time, be honest and let them know how you feel about the way they treat you. Make suggestions on how you can better deal with each other in the office. If you are confused, ask questions.
I hope this step works out for you, but if not, there’s still another way to save your position.
2) Speak with the HR
If your boss still hasn’t realized what you’re asking for, it would be good to talk with the HR. They are your friend, and it is their job to keep the office a nice place to work in. Just be sure not to badmouth your boss. Simple let them know how you feel, and what you think the HR can do to resolve the issue. Remember, if you work hard, the HR sees that and they would be more than willing to help you than lose you.
If both these two solutions did not work and your boss still insists on letting you down, you two are probably better off separated. But it’s not time to leave yet!
3) Move to another department
Ask the HR to move you another department. However, make sure that you know how things work where you plan to move.
Workplace is supposed to be a fun place to spend a weekday in. Stress is always there, but it should not prevent you from having a peaceful sleep and quiet mind. Remember that there is always a way to fix things, and don’t let anyone keep to bullying you.
