Thanks so much for your reply
Friends are friendly interactions is definitely what I value most. There are some nice people at work who I don’t work with directly, but being in such a busy workplace means it’s hard to find time to stop and chat. It is also a hot desk office, where you have to more around to a new seat everyday
Every other workplace I’ve been, I had at least a couple of close people I’d talk with regularly and go out to lunch with. But don’t have that here and my direct manager is very work focussed and anytime I try to share something personal she often belittles me for my choices and values eg being vegetarian / where I live. She has also been yelling my name across the office when she wants me to come to her desk which is embarrassing cause others can hear and it shows she doesn’t respect me.
I think I’m mostly afraid to keep changing jobs as I’ve had 3 different jobs the past two years. I left the other jobs for different reasons, but it’s still very hard to explain this when asked in interviews.
I also feel like I’d be quitting instead of trying to improve my current situation. What do you think?
