Panic Attacks at Work/Very Angry Manager - Please Help!
Hi everyone, I am a first year analyst who has really been struggling recently with panic attacks/anxiety at work due to my manager. My manager is constantly angry and screaming and objects have been thrown at others on multiple occasions. Every single time these incidents have been swept under the rug. One of my mentors has told me to suck it up but it has gotten to the point where I am not sure I feel safe at work and no longer feel that this is the right path for me. Sometimes I feel paralyzed by the fear that I will make a mistake and have something thrown at me and am struggling to learn in this terrible environment. I have never been in a job with a manager like this and grew up in an abusive household that I constantly tried to get away from so it really stings having this behavior follow me to work. I tried really hard to get this role, but now I feel like a complete idiot for not doing something chill in MO/BO instead. I am in a very niche group (not coverage) with limited transferable skills and exit opportunities so this was intended to be a long term career that I no longer see myself in. The job is making me miserable and unhealthy and I have been thinking about exiting to a MO/BO role in a specific "lower tier" city but am unsure of how to go about this given the current state of the market. I am extremely depressed and unhappy and every day feels like a struggle not to just quit - please help!
You need to display authority and start throwing objects back at your manager. Remember - power in your throw comes from the hips, so make sure you fully exercise the range of motion when launching a stapler or something at him. Best of luck!
^^Echoing the comment above. Sometimes your seniors forget that you grew up watching YouTube boxing, so you’ve been able to emulate our generations greatest fighters (think KSI, Jake Paul, Deji) and command them into a corner where they HAVE TO FEAR your wrath.
What I would do is watch a motivational Andrew Tate compilation, get back in the bullpen, and align the shit off the brakes of that useless slide deck that no one will touch besides your anxious ass and live life without worry. God bless.
"motivational Andrew Tate" alright bro lmao.
