Vlog April 2024 - A Very Busy 3 Weeks

[@ggchronicles3417]

Kandy, I’m a nurse and im also 46 so I’m close to the same age as you and I want to tell you how proud I am of you for being strong enough to get out of a job that didn’t make you happy🥰 you absolutely deserve to be happy in every area of your life🥰🥰 when I was in nursing school, my nursing instructor told our class to never settle for a job that doesn’t make you happy or that makes you feel miserable because we spend more than half of our lives at work so it should be a place and environment that you feel good about and not like you are being forced into a corner with no human interaction !!! I am soooo happy for you!!!!❤❤

[@MrFluffums123]

@@LeeLee3-wg4gs you can see from her earlier logs . If that job was wasting her time as well for 15 years with no advancement, the only way to advance is to get a new job correct?

[@janapetersen5225]

​@LeeLee3-wg4gs It makes absolutely no sense to say someone job hops and then when people refute with the knowledge she was at a former job for 15 years you criticize that. What is your problem?

[@noelanikaanana]

I think it was very brave to not only identify that that job wasn't a good fit but also do something about it. So many people would just stuck it up and keep working there.

[@nicolemarie.beauty3380]

Don’t feel bad Kandy, at then end of the day those jobs don’t care about you or your well being. I love that our generation is realizing that mental health is just as important. You did the right thing. Sending you all the good vibes.

[@judithrees6919]

You didn't fail. You learned more about what YOU need in a job. Now, as you look, your senses will pick up a bad fit much sooner! It's called personal growth. Kudos to you for learning and not being afraid to move on ❤

[@KarenBecker-x4o]

I cried on way to job and on way home everyday then one day I quit on the spot. The job was ruining my life. Best decision I made

[@denisehafer7237]

You did the right thing for you job wise. Since we spend most of our days at work you shouldn't feel miserable! Don't worry about letting people down, you have to do what makes you happy 😊. Life is short and goes by so fast. Good luck girl!!!

[@dreamingmusicgal]

Kandy, It doesn't sound like to me you failed yourself at this place but you learn something about yourself and what you want and/or need in a lifetime career. Blessings!

[@lisat735]

You absolutely did the right thing! You have to worry about you, no need whatsoever to be miserable ever! You did good!

[@callmeGira]

We are close in age. I'm 49. Like you, I was raised with the attitude that if you have a job, you keep the job as long as you possibly can. No matter how miserable it is, you just suck it up and keep working there. I now work around/with many people from a much younger generation, ages 18-19. Their attitude is the complete opposite. They often believe that if something is the slightest bit unpleasant for you, then you should quit. I think the healthier approach...both personally and for our culture as a whole... is somewhere in the middle. No, you can't just stop going to work or quit your job because you don't like one detail, or it's a little boring, or you just don't feel like showing up this week. But keeping a job that literally makes you miserable doesn't serve anyone either. It impacts your mental health, your relationships, and in the end, it will impact the service you provide the people you're being paid to serve as well. I wouldn't advise anyone to stay in a situation like that unless the alternative were worse (like having no money saved or other money coming in, and no other options.)

[@AliciaBakerLeashy]

Sweetie you gotta do YOU. Whatever that is. Don't discount yourself. You got this!!! Keep up that confidence!!! 🎉🥰

[@AnalogWinter]

There is absolutely nothing wrong with quitting a job that turns out poorly. I did it twice, once in 2016 (to be closer to home; the commute was horrible) and once in 2021 (received an offer paying 30% more a week after starting) and never looked back. Life is too short to wake up and do something that makes you miserable all day. This was an opportunity to learn more about what you like and don't like in a workplace!

[@laughinlori6893]

You did the right thing for you and the new company. No one wins when you have a square peg in a round hole. The job that is the right fit for your gifts and talents is out there!

You have such a good head on your shoulders! I wish I could be more like you, I put up with crap I shouldn’t at work and we should all at least try to find something that makes us a big happier. Good luck on the new search!

[@daniellacosta1756]

You were in the same job for a long time, you were happy at the tyre store too. Findings a good fit in a job is important and like dating sometimes. Not everything or everyone is for us. Recognising this so early is so important. 😊

[@rosemaryRulzz]

So proud of you Kandy. My husband is currently working a job that he absolutely hates and I can see the toll that it is taking on him. You absolutely did the right thing in moving on from the new job. It's nothing against you or them, it's exactly as you said just not a good fit. The right thing will come along!

[@doulacandice]

Dont feel bad. No one is disappointed in you either. It's awesome you know what you want and need in a job and you did the right thing for your mental health.

[@ldyleoharrison3960]

You did the right thing. Hopefully you find a better fit for you. I work in a office but quiet we are not. I would go crazy in that kind of environment.

[@sjoywilson]

Girl, I’m proud of you for quitting! Life is too short to do something that doesn’t make you happy. You do you! ❤️

[@Rosa-kf6yy]

I think you quit that job with grace and dignity. Good for you for knowing that it wasn't going to be good for you and not letting it continue. Be blessed.

[@kinggbriaa]

Leaving a job that’s not for you, is perfectly okay! People forget that employment is a two way street. Not only do I need to be a good fit for your company, but your company also needs to be a good fit for me!

[@mythdusterds]

Glad to hear you are a growing enough to recognize what is and is not a good working environment and know when to leave a job that does not fit. There is no need to stick with a job that kills your soul.

[@Sam-uh7jb]

I wish I had that kind of support! I think you did the right thing!

[@melissalierse179]

Kandy you're just the sweetest human. Be kind to yourself always because you're killing it. Praying you find the best job for your next stage of life that offers that emotional fulfillment we all need. Girl we ain't robots 😂 that job sounded terrible, good move!!❤❤❤

Maybe in the interim focus on your YT channel. You have a decent fan base to build upon and could do things like organise with me etc

[@susanmcgrath585]

I think you should get a job at a vet’s office since you love animals so much. You would be able to interact with all types of people and animals everyday and it would be exciting all the time.

Hi Kandy, don't be so hard on yourself. Something will come through for you. You Got This ❤

[@dianalynn8781]

Awe, Kandy, I'm so proud of you, girl. You have to follow your dream or you'll be miserable all your life. I'm 76, and have a psychiatrist that I talk to about my life. Things are going rocky for me right now, but after the past I had 10+ years of therapy to get over a bad bringing up. I learned the basics in life, and if you're not true to yourself, you'll not only make yourself miserable, but eventually you'll make Cody feel the same way. You are such a happy go lucky gal and I think you made the right decision. Don't feel like you let people down. Be proud that you made the right decision for your age, and going forth you'll be the happier for it. Walk tall, Kandy! life is a long journey, and these things are always going to come along like stones along a pathway. Side step them and you'll walk on firm footing and you won't fall. You and Cody are wonderful together. Your look at life is awesome. enjoy each other. You only go around once. Life is not a dress rehearsal. Hugs to you both and the fur babies.

Quit picking on our Cody 😻, he is adorable ( and yes I know you were playing 🤪). Congrats on all the new changes & upgrades. Stay blessed everyone ✌️

[@carladias2104]

I hope you don’t ask a recruiter or an interviewer if they encourage staff to become friends!!! Work is definitely not the place to make friends, but to work. If you make them it is a plus. There is no fail from your part in quitting, you are just a more extrovert type of person who thrives working within a team. Good luck on your new job search, maybe you could be a great administrator. I worked at a temp staff recruitment company a long time ago and did the admin and payroll for all temp staff. It was quite fulfilling and I dealt with a lot of people. Maybe something you might like doing, you never know.

[@StellaMinella.]

Good for you Kandy👍🏻 you made the right choice

[@brandiowl]

Disappointed in you!? Heck No, I'm so proud of you for having the courage to realize that job was not a good fit and leave. I hate places that don't want to properly train people and just want you to have it after one day. Being miserable in a job can affect your whole life! I've been there! Never settle for a terrible job! I see this as a win!

[@stephaniesplussizeworld7011]

[@lauraellsworth1813]

That job sounds like Hell- don't feel bad about it. You did the right thing bailing when you did. Bravo - when its not right its not right. You shouldn't be hating to go to work at a job you just started. I've been there- you'll find something so much better now.

[@jaywellington6504]

Nice to see the return of your car vlogs. No reason to defend yourself to your viewers about losing your job. Been watching you since day1. You're stronger than that, so not sure why this new display of defense... for your viewers? Not your normal response. I guess views count when you are needing income.

I hate work environments like that where it is like figure it out and there is no plan or written processes to solve problems.

[@53216161]

U did better than me b/c I wouldn't have said anything. I just would have gone on lunch break and never came back.

[@karenmacneil3678]

Disappointed in you? No way! too many people stick with a job that sucks the life out of them because they think they should. Good for you for knowing what you need and going after it. You gave it a good try and you'll find the right job, hopefully by the end of May. BTW, not all cubicle jobs are like that but a lot are. I worked in cubicles for most of my 40-year career and survived it but then again, I'm an introvert so being left on my own is good. If the only time I was spoken to was a reprimand, I might think otherwise though. Jeez!

[@ArrowFam2023]

Your doing you. You have to be happy with what your doing or life will be miserable which is no good for anyone. I was an LNA for 15 years I changed my job in November of last year now I'm a property manager at hud housing I couldn't be happier surprised me to lol. I'm so glad to see how happy you are❤ beautiful family. #realone #been here since you had a few hundred subscribers love your Chanel 😊

[@rachelbrown1978]

Am so pleased you left. X❤

[@nortiekeeks]

first of all, love your channel - you are just super relatable to me and i truly look forward to your videos! 😬😬 second, don't feel bad for leaving that job - sometimes things aren't good fits and that includes working environments! i started a new job in march of last year and almost immediately something just felt "off" and i couldn't put my finger on it right away - but it got to the point where i was questioning if i was even in the right career (of 20 years mind you, lol) because i legit felt icky every workday and was having almost like imposter syndrome or something... eventually, i realized it just wasn't a good fit (which had never happened to me before - i've always loved and thrived in previous workplaces) and so i decided to leave for another opportunity 5 months in... not my MO - i like to plant roots! LOL, but i just could not stay there... i've been with the new company going on 9 months now and OMG = best decision ever! i love where i am, what i'm doing, the people i work with, the whole shebang! and i no longer question a new career! or question my abilities! i know for sure the same will happen for you!!! 🙂 we spend too much time at work to be miserable there - for whatever the reason! work sucks, who doesn't want to hit lotto to never have to work again, lol...but we can still find happiness and fulfillment if we are in the right place... sending lots of positive vibes your way as you navigate to the next (and fitting) path of your career journey! 💜

Kudos to you for recognizing that the job wasn't a good fit. I have spent years trying to fit into jobs where I didn't feel valued or appreciated. Work culture is so important and I would definately ask about that in your next interview. Also ask what the management style will be. I know I work best under servant leadership and don't do well under micro managy type leaders. Lastly I think you would be perfect in the non profit sector. You have a giant heart, you are compassionate and kind. Plus you also like to help people and love connection, seriously you would be perfect!!

[@LauraBidingCitizen]

Kandy what on earth are you talking about hun?! Why would we or I be disappointed in you?! I’m proud of you! 5 or so years ago you would’ve pushed your mental health into the ground trying to please those people and others around you by sticking it out, & been completely miserable in the process. I’ve said to my nieces and nephew from the time they were teenagers, I don’t give a flying jot what you want to do when you’re older, garbage collector, doctor, lawyer, office worker.. all I want is for you to be happy in your job, because speaking from experience, there is NOTHING more demoralising than working in a job & environment that makes you miserable. Sure, money helps in a job, but so long as you have enough to get by, everything else will work itself out, but your mental health is so important in a work placement. The people you work with can make or break a work placement and from what you’ve said, that didn’t help your old work place environment at all. I couldn’t imagine being shoved in a cubicle and feel like I was constantly berated rather than congratulated and gently critiqued, & essentially isolated from any human interaction. I’d go stir crazy. No, you made the absolute right decision. This shows your growth if nothing else Kandy, use it as a learning experience, you now know what you’re looking for moving forward! Xx

[@lballerina6725]

Hi Kandy, do you mind me asking what anti depressants you are on? I just went through the same thing as you wanting to get off of mine and it went horribly. I was able to cry, and I did a lot, but the flip side of that was I also felt very agitated and irritable so easily. I got into major arguments with my hubby which was not normal, to the point where I wanted to leave and that's def not me. I figured out if I want to get off of them, I would have to do it very slowly and pay close attention to how it's affecting me. So I decided to one day, take half a dose and the next day, a whole dose, at least for a couple of weeks and if I'm doing ok with that, then I'll try 1/2 a dose every day for a few weeks and then maybe start doing that every other day and see what happens. If I see that I start feeling super irritable and agitated again, I'll go back to where I wasn't feeling that way. I realize it's a very slow process to wean off of anti depressants, and you need to give your brain time to adjust to the change. But I want to get off of them so badly. I hate having to be on them.

[@suesmith3744]

@iballerina6725. Never ever come off of antidepressants cold turkey or without consulting a doctor , it can be very dangerous with horrible side effects as you have experienced . If you really want to come off of them please do it under medical supervision … Best wishes 💐

I’ve had to quit 2 jobs very quickly because they were not the right fit for me. One was very similar to your story and I am in the same field as you. First one I quit was after about 2.5 weeks, they severely underpaid me ($20,000 a year and I was training their main accounting person lol) the owner was a complete pig. The first day I met him he called everyone homophobic slurs. The nail in the coffin was them trying to make me work alone on Christmas Day as a new employee because I didn’t get PTO yet. Ok then don’t pay me for the day lol? Second job was so much like yours. It was for a private jet company, I was working accounts payable. The whole entire department quit except for one woman, she was supposed to train me. She took 5 minutes and said these are the systems we use, you’ll figure them out. They had me making extremely important decisions on mechanical parts for jets. Like I had to decide which was more important to buy (I knew nothing about jets). The person that was supposed to train me kept earbuds in all day and didn’t speak a single word to me other than to tell me she was also going to quit once I figured this out and to be prepared for mandatory unpaid overtime every weekend. Also be prepared for mandatory unpaid overtime after work at home each night. I quit after 2 days in an email to the controller telling her that it was not a good fit. Now I finally found a job I’m happy with and I make SO MUCH more money and get amazing benefits. The right job is out there!
