Huh… I always found my co-workers and I had a common interest in constantly talking shit about the job. 🤷🏻♂️

Ah well talking shit about work is different than actually changing your primary focus away from it. It’s just a form of small talk and they generally change tune when you actually start doing stuff about it in your life. Not coming in on a day when the manager mass-texted us that the building was out of power? I didn’t know, but apparently everyone else still came in because “it might have come on later” and I guess I was just supposed to show up out of some distorted form of solidarity?? I get that others needed the hours on their check anyways but I didn’t see the point personally.
They’ll find shit to talk about. If you decide the place is too toxic and work to cut your hours, that culture of complaining often shifts to include you, especially when you’re not there.
Maybe I’m too bitter from my previous job but good gravy am I glad to have quit.

You must be working at a very shitty place if the “whole family” kinda dislikes you for not putting “the family” in the center of your life

Not really, people love me there even though I never hang out with them 💅

No?
I’ve never gotten shit from people for having a strong work/life balance and boundaries. Unless you’re being really dickish and combative when you’re communicating boundaries, most people are not going to give you grief about them.
