Whiney voice: "But I want my workers to worship me!!"
-- some boss, probably.
It's better to leave, when you can, if you need to.

Calling this generation soft or weak because they are actually quitting toxic jobs was always hilarious to me. How is staying and licking your boss's boots every day for the rest of your life a show of courage exactly?
One day, our whole economy is going to collapse, and we wont have anyone to blame because everyone was just living their best life. Smash that like button if you are fighting for 8 hour work weeks, unlimited PTO, free housing and no taxes.
Only dumb people want no taxes. The rest like their society to be non-anarchy thank you very much.
There's certainly a lot of good reasons to quit a toxic job, and a lot of changes so need to be made, but it's gotten to the point where even the tiniest little smidge of discomfort is causing these people to throw their hands up and cry "Toxic!". It's absurd.
While there is certainly no justification for truly toxic work environment, life isn't all about participation trophies and coddling. Sometimes you just have to suck it up and deal with a little discomfort. Life is hard sometimes. Deal with it.
Bringing up participation trophies is a great way to sound like a clueless old person who accidentally ended up here from Facebook.
Lol, Ok Zoomer! By that rationale I guess being a slave back in the day was not "tough".
As if compensation has to do with whether a job is tough or not.
Just because leaving a job shouldn't be considered soft doesn't mean people with no choice but to stay with a job are soft.
It also doesn't mean people who stick with a job because they consider the benefits and risks of quitting soft.
boots if your lucky
