I can’t fucking stand it here. I hate this place. I love my field of work, but I hate the people and this entire work environment. I’m tired of being yelled at, especially for things that shouldn’t be my fault. I do what I’m told, so if I fail it’s because you didn’t tell me thoroughly what needs done. You can’t give me half of an assignment and expect me to know how to finish it correctly. But apparently that makes me a bad worker because I can’t read people’s minds or go back twenty years and learn how you guys do things here.
I don’t fucking understand what more they want from me. I’m still young and only human. I fuck up, yeah, and if it’s your job to review my work and you miss a mistake I make then that should fall on you for assuming I’m always right, not mine for making the mistake in the first place. But of course since everyone but me has been here over 20 years, I’m the easiest to blame since I’m not your fucking butt buddy like they are.
No, I can’t go to HR because it’s a small company and she’s one of them. I don’t plan on being here much longer, and I definitely don’t plan on staying long enough to read your minds.. I can tell right now they fucking suck.

Hmm have you thought about finding a new job?
I mean in the same field but diffrent place?
It might be hard to get used to at first, but it might be better.
Just an idea
I’ve been looking, but I love inn a small town and there aren’t many people hiring for the position I’m qualified for. So I think I’m going to have to tough it out, which is looking nearly impossible, or I’m going to have to find a temporary job that isn’t in my field while I continue to look.
I worked a job like that before exactly as you put it. Eventually they fired me. I wish I would’ve quit when my life was better. But for the best for you, you should quit. You’re not a bad worker if you dont have all the instructions.
I really want to quit, but I have some people who depend on me, or my paycheck I should say, and debts that I owe. I’m looking for something different, but it’s hard. Even harder with depression and anxiety. The thought of a new interview seems terrifying.
That’s really tough. However if you feel you have to quit because the people are making it impossible to work there, including HR you may have a hostile work environment claim. Google it and think about taking action if that is indeed the case. I think (i’m no expert though) you can collect unemployment if you have to quit because of a hostile work environment. Just a thought.
However if you live in a small community it might make things worse.
I wouldn’t qualify. I read up on it and, “So, a coworker who talks loudly, snaps her gum, and leans over your desk when she talks with you, is demonstrating inappropriate, rude, obnoxious behavior, but it does not create a hostile work environment.” It only legally qualifies as a hostile work environment if it is discriminatory, which it’s not. I’m just being mistreated in every way but that. You’d think if I would rather kill myself than come into work everyday and be bullied, that would qualify as something.. But nope. ‘Murica.
