Well, that's what happened to me. I went from one bad situation to another slightly better one. This one has a shorter commute and better benefits and it is not outwardly toxic, but there is a lot of under-the-table negativity and back biting. It's hard for me as a sensitive person to endure. My motto:

Do not allow the behavior of others to disturb your inner peace...the Dalai Lama. I repeat, repeat and go home for lunch where I get centered again and come back for another four or five hours.

I have good days and bad days and have to remind myself that I'm not defined by my job.
Thanks for this!
