Toxic Workplace Survival Tips | How to Cope with a Toxic Work Environment

[@JenniferBrick]

Have you survived a toxic workplace before? What tip would you add?

[@natalieharquail4845]

Get out and ignore them. If you do listen to them your self esteem will be destroyed. I was in a toxic work environment for 6 years it nearly took me a year to recover

[@sweeetchocolate100]

What do you do when you have never took part in office gossip or spoke about anyone at the office, yet you are consistently the centre of gossip? What do you do if you’re discriminated against without taking legal action (which can be quite costly and energy draining)?

I put in my resignation today and I'm leaving my toxic career. I firmly believe call center is toxic for everyone.

Coworkers are NOT your friends. Do not go out with them. Dont go to a dive bar with them. It will only be used against you.

[@ryno1808]

Yes very true

[@thenewyorkcitizen]

A former assistant manager who was toxic and gossipy AF used to ask me why I didn't talk about myself or personal life at work. I told her the company didn't pay me to talk but paid me to work. Even she laughed. Never give them any info. Keep it polite, neutral and keep it moving.

[@kmydesire12]

They always want to know your business. They will target me once they know I don’t want to take breaks and eat lunch with them. I make sure I have a deadline

[@FreyaGem]

Though I'm still at my toxic job for the moment and DYING to leave, I will say one thing that helps me. I stopped talking to my toxic boss about my emotions, under any circumstances (he is a textbook narcissist). This keeps me safe from many of his emotional manipulations. He still hates me because I stand up to him, but he doesn't know what to do with me anymore, so he mostly leaves me alone now. --I so agree with you, too, Jennifer, that toxic workplaces can really wither away your confidence and affect your job search ability. It's so frustrating when you wake up in a good mood most days and come home from work just feeling pathetic, unmotivated, and exhausted. It's an uphill battle to stay at a place that does that to you. I can't do it much longer. I'd rather be broke.

[@JenniferBrick]

I'm so sorry you're in it Freya. Try something small best time you wake up feeling great. Before you start work, either write down, do a voice note or take a video for yourself describing EXACTLY how you feel. Are you unstoppable, awesome, optimistic, happy. At the end write or say, "no matter what happened between this morning and this moment, this is my true self and my true potential." Then watch/listen/read after work. That message to yourself is going to be a shortcut to get back to it after work (or mid day if you need it). You've got this, friend.

[@Nigstesaba]

For me, what I did is to keep my personal life, private. Because you will always seek comfort from your coworkers and you will only be disappointed because they're toxic.

[@reginacarr4633]

Every job I have had over the past 8 years had been toxic in one way or another…If you set boundaries, they cross them. Being told I am the problem for asking questions. Management will do nothing to remedy a bullying problem, you told you are being overly sensitive. I have had dread & anxiety about going into my job so much, that I would cry the entire weekend, then be throwing up Monday morning. This is not right or acceptable, yet I am told suck it up and deal with it! It is wrong and hurtful… know you are not alone, and hang in there as best you can until you can leave!!

[@YachiYarborough-xw4kp]

I feel the same way. The management told me I was overly sensitive also.

[@cynthiakk5966]

No people should have rights to judge your emotions. I am on the hands of bully and psychopath and freak control bully. I report them to the management. They change more subtle way. Now, I set very tight boundaries. My boss ban one of them to approach me because her violent behaviour. She send few of her friends come. I told of them vert strictly and I said, I didnt feel comfortable you ever approach me or talk with me yet. If you need any "help" and go to ask another coworker. So it became better and they are not approach me anymore. But this group of bully will use a lot subtle ways to control u.

[@vickywitton1008]

I am so with you. My husband always tells me that he is with me because of my sweet, sensitive, nature and that I wasn't bitchy like other girls. I try to stay true to my self but I make a lot of mistakes. I sort of take on my husband's persona to deal with people and it doesn't work for me. ( he is pretty confident)

[@angelab7235]

@@vickywitton1008I get you! I’m the same way. My fiancé literally worries for me because I’m really nice and empathetic. He knows that people take advantage of that and they do. I left my prior job because it was such a negative place only to end up at another job with major problems to the point that I cry almost every day. My confidence has diminished so much in a very short amount of time.

[@Lannec10]

One thing that bothers me is that a lot of people conflate office gossip with the essential venting and support we might need from a coworker or two to survive a toxic workplace. So many orgs will see you confiding in someone and you get labeled a troublemaker when in truth, you are just trying to get through the day without losing your mind.

[@Kingoftheworld500]

So true. I moved to a more affordable apartment and my boss told everyone the reason I was so stressed was becasue I was renting more than I could afford and it was causing me to be bitter. Even 6 months later when I quit, a few coworkers asked if it was because of my rent. Paying rent wasn't my problem, it was my manager

I actually had a very bad depressive episode this year and was on sick leave for a month. When I returned, I found that I was being treated differently.

[@sureyyaekinci4630]

I was like this for a few weeks , but now I just deal with it each day as it comes . So far it’s Wednesday and I got spoken to every day about something I did wrong. Oh well I will deal with it as it comes

[@asadb1990]

the risk of toxicity is probably why i recommend keep applying even if you don't want a job. and even start taking interviews. and then leave when a better offer comes around. life is too short to deal with toxic employer/workplace. i didn't know how toxic my first corporate job was until i left. it wasn't the straightforward toxic it was the slow nagging that can become annoying. for example there were small almost negligible errors in a spreadsheet that if my intern brought to me, i would just fix them myself and let the intern know to fix next time. no my boss called me into meetings and made huge deal that would hurt self confidence. you can live with it but its annoying. sometimes you need another pair of eyes to look at your work.

[@JenniferBrick]

You're totally right, life is way too short to say in a toxic workplace. And it can be so hard to spot when you're in one; cognitive dissonance comes into play.

The best way to deal with a toxic workplace is to leave. Years ago I was in a horrible work environment. It did a number on my mental and physical health. Leaving was the best thing ever.

[@KJ-hi6rq]

I'm struggling with how to put it into words: I'm working with very entitled yet incompetent, lazy and insincere people. Basically they pretend to be sickly sweet and nice when they want something from you but at the same time gossip and spread lies behind your back. It boils my blood and sickens me. Makes me feel alone and absolutely smothered. Their cunning tactics are on top of that called "being savvy". Advancing in your career past certain stage means becoming the shallowest of friends with people on higher posts and it angers me because I just can't do it. Even thinking about it feels like I'm about to throw up or cry. It bothers me that I will need to jump through hoops to qualify myself and expand my skills to maximum just to maybe someday even out the position these people claimed through connections. And then have to work with them even though they are absolutely underqualified to carry out the jobs they have.

[@buda3d2007]

Toxic work environment, get out of there friends, even if its not targeted at you it could be one day, don't support or be part of a toxic work environment.

[@jay-s9y1c]

Most workplaces are toxic... I work in one that the boss does not like conflict and panders to the office bully. When she is not around it is much more peaceful. He himself is self-absorbed and only cares to talk about himself and what he thinks and wants you to agree with him. People complain about each other to each other. I am consistently feeling on edge bc people come to me to complain and it drains the hit out of me. I am unsure of what exactly to say to make them stop. I need something fast and simple to say bc people have small attention spans. Could you please do a video on that, easy phrases to use with toxic coworkers/bosses.

[@d_grace]

For me, I'm in my 2nd month of probation and I work as a receptionist. The toxic behaviour is not (yet at least) directed to me, but is around me. The managers know my coworker's attitude and yet they arent doing anything about it. That coworker is very loud, putting someone down when they make a mistake and just plainly bossy. Everyday it's like that. But I know, one day, it only takes time, that it will be directed to me.

[@d_grace]

Update: yup it has been directed to me now. In trying to learn how to stand up for myself without sounding proud and not getting fired...it's hard, but I'll just be here for a year or 9 months...hopefully I can last that long😭

[@NotWhoYouThinkThisBe]

If you walk away from a conversation with someone at work feeling totally confused (this is a big one) OR feeling way "lower" than them (less smart, less cultured, less sophisticated, less worthy, less important, less powerful, less capable, etc), ASSUME they're toxic and limit contact with them. It's more about going with how you feel than what you think, if you want to build a "radar" system for this junk. I say "junk" because people who use tactics to lower the esteem of someone or intentionally confuse them are literally garbage people. I don't care how much money they have, if they can't treat people right and see them as humans, they belong in a trash colony among their own type. 🙂

I know they’re unhappy, and I know somewhere deep down they feel small and unloved.

I am currently not appreciated at my job. My boss keep trying to stop me from taking vacation because he knows when I use it up I will quit. I will just leave no notice and wait until they are very busy to do it.

[@cassysotherchan353]

This is gold.I will try these all tomorrow. Thank you so much!

[@tammygibson1556]

Working on resigning! The 1st one will help me the most. I'm usually empathetic.

[@dawnnicholson6703]

I work in one and feel stuck. Mine is a private company so a bit differant than a huge corp. I believe mine is this way because they can and were all disposable at the end of the day.😊

[@lauratroy8943]

I deal with my boss as little as possible. This is a case where less communication is better!

[@Essencejournal]

My after work reset is photography and watching and recording videos for Tik Tok. Thanks for your strategies!

[@chrismorgan6149]

I quit my job yesterday😊

[@iamnohamme]

You are amazing thanks for your precious advise 🙏100 % Gratitude

[@peonyflowers23]

I see that 13 toxic people found and disliked the video. Thanks for the tips!

[@Melva-Tjong]

Many thanks for sharing the tips of dealing with narcissistic attacks. However, just yourself in the workplace environment where you have a narcissistic boss. Will these tips be different? Would you keep quiet when the narcissistic boss creates a scene in the open work environment that you are incompetent, only you know what they did to not only gas light you but also everyone around you. You know the truth but you can not say to protect yourself? I found around 60% of management have narcissistic tendency nowadays. If you could make videos about how to deal with them at work, it is much appreciated. Thank you.

At Goodwill there was some past supervisors that would tell me I was doing a good job those employees have long since gone... now it everyone is trying to get me to quit on my own...I always stressing about my job even on my days off.. sometimes it is hard to sleep at night.. mainly worried about my job is am I working fast enough to have job the next time I show up for work...I am working with on kidney.it dose take some time to keep up and at the same time I feel if I move faster I am end up hurting myself or running over and hurting others with a floor jack if I ran faster.just feeling no matter what I do I am not going to win .. still feeling like that kid that graduated high school way back in 1987

I just have to say You are so awesome And your content is so helpful And so fire 🔥 Thank you 🙏 I've got ADD I work really hard, often times I'm undermined, but I've built ways to cope and even use it as a strength, thanks for reminding me the truth about how it's not you , it's them.

[@marvinscottjr.4310]

You are the best! Thank you for your content

[@JenniferBrick]

I'm glad you enjoy it!

[@EricThompson-k9v]

What sucks is when the person who's toxic is popular with the others. The gaslighting is unreal when you're the target

[@TheZibbor]

Bless you dear. This video is very helpful

[@ChristafuhM]

I work in a automotive transmission shop and the levels of negativity are absolutely astronomical

[@user-ht2kw2ug5f]

I don't think I've commented before but I'm back year after year to review your good advice. Thank you. Just wanted to let you know 🙇😎💯🤘🔥

[@JenniferBrick]

Glad you choose to hang with me, J!

[@ryno1808]

Number 1 rule Never discuss your personal life or discuss what you do in your free time to any boss or co workers if they ask keep it very simple sweet and small talk It will be used against you 1 way or another someway down the line

[@desireer6915]

This is video is awesome! I wish I had found your channel sooner!!! ❤

[@mikki7522]

I'm over here doing illuminati rituals just to get ready for my toxic job lol

[@robertellis6505]

I do see people that go to work at something they want to do seem to be happer .than those that are going to work is just to pay rent or just to put food on the table or they are just doing all they can to just chase money

[@Krissshereee]

Okay I heavily need advice. I’ve been at my new job for about a couple of months, I started as a friendly person but as soon as I saw how many people or my coworkers started to act towards me (walking over me, telling me to do their job, takes my things etc.) I became quiet and distant, and the coworkers that I considered my friends stopped talking to me because I’m “rude and don’t know how to make friends” but in reality I just want to do my work and go home. I really don’t know how to ignore them and just keep to myself. I try but sometimes their actions like pretending I’m not there hurt my feelings, any advice? It’s heavily appreciated.

[@greneellen8]

It's politics at play. You can't work in a place and completely isolate yourself. If you can, it'll be terrible for you in the end. You have to find a happy middle ground where you cultivate friendliness, avoid gossip, and maintain boundaries. It also depends on what kind of work you do and the maturity level of the people working with you. If it's an entry level job filled with all very young people, it can be a mean-girl nightmare and you might have to look elsewhere.

[@dexter576]

Set boundaries but not towards them, more towards your actions, limit yourself to do basic things and remember they're more scared than you, it's just they're scared of someone else/boss etc. If you need money you have no choice, but if you have saved some just make month break and find sth else. Noone should make high school out of work, you will never win this game, specially if you got at least 1 psychopath in there, don't make emotional decision, if you want stay then stay, people be just people in the end, weak and cowards who's wifes cheating on them and kids who hates them

[@xtinedike4334]

Deep stuff you can’t work by yourself but wt do u do in a situation where both boss and staff are passive towards you and they make friends with themselves and daily make the work unpractical for you to do.

[@glendacortes9497]

I wish I would had seen this video while I worked at the toxic place. I quit the job last week because I had no more energy.

[@lavayuki]

I work in a toxic shit workplace and have to stay for 6 months as I can’t leave…. I hope I make it out alive

[@dexter576]

Just 1 more month to get heart attack in there, keep us updated

[@damienwelch9067]

[@cherl3769]

Amazing!!! Thank you

[@JenniferBrick]

Anytime, Cher! I hope it helped.

[@vinakablue3794]

Thank you for this - very timely for me to hear!

[@jolopones]

Let's be honest and look at ourselves. We went to school, got one skill, one degree, one this, just one. So yeah you are trapped. Can't go left or right, one dimension. So yeah we get stuck in positions we dont wanna be in

[@JustMe-ob3nw]

I don’t want to have to work for a living

[@sigmasiren7]

Same. Either that or I just badly need to work from home.

[@Ashleyn3483]

I'm the highest seniority part timer in my department. Been with the company for 11 years. I'm changing my availability to mornings. The full timers attacked me because we're already short handed and with me going to mornings will 'screw up everything' they're pretty much upset because full timers NEED to be available whenever. They will work them whatever shift the company schedules them and nothing they can do about it. So they're scared lol

[@travelvideoz]

I quit and still feel sick. They said I am rude but the negativity got to me. Now I want to be as my politer old self.

[@Yiyi-iz2ep]

For now I'm still working in a toxic work place where people literally treat you like you're in high school. Dont talk to this person...we dont like this person...never liked that. On top of that they are all older in their 30s/40s and act this way. Whenever they make a mistake is all good but if you do it then they cut your hours because "you're not good enough" I've had many mental breakdowns (even today) and my mental health has suffered from the constant feeling that nothing I do is ever good enough for them and I get punished. Can't wait to quit without notice :)

[@candaceyoung3468]

Thank you. I need to hear this
