When your workplace is a mental prison

Career Tips
 Most people have to deal with nasty bosses and conniving workmates everyday (Image: Shutterstock)

Here is how your day goes: Eight hours, on average, are spent sleeping and another eight working for the 9am-5pm shift brigade. Those are 16 out of 24 hours in a day. How do you spend the remaining six hours?

The above is different for the jobless, but in a nutshell, a huge chunk of one’s life is spent at the workplace where the unlucky majority have to deal with nasty bosses, conniving workmates and the negative energy that comes with working in a toxic environment.

In fact, most workplaces were made worse by the pandemic that came with the death of colleagues, massive pay cuts, layoffs, auctions, loan call-backs, downgraded lifestyles and dwindling corporate fortunes resulted in increased workplace anxiety.
