in 1994 Takeshi Kitano's Minnā yatteru ka! (Is everyone doing it?) we see a car dealer hitting a child's head with his parents present, but the parents don't react. Why is this funny in Japan?
I'm transferring to another ward within my hospital and the whole thing feels odd. How do I sort myself out?
how do I show a coworker that I care about her after her mother died?
if you are a doctor or registered nurse, what's the point of manipulating a patient to stay at your unit even if he wants to leave against medical advice?
Where is the line between meeting somebody halfway and being a doormat with no personality?
I'm having second thoughts about quitting my current position, I'm scared and I don't understand myself. What's happening to me?
I don't have a purpose in life and feel like a robot. This cannot be good for my mental health, but I don't know how or what to change. How do I change?
to those of you not very talkative / introverted, how do you survive the constant pressure and misunderstandings from coworkers and future employers to open up, talk more?
if you're the kind of person not to burn bridges when leaving a toxic job or toxic coworkers, why?
if you do a physically demanding job and end up with sore and painful legs, does it help to run before / after your shift?
what's a good present for some friendly nurses who taught me little tricks to work better before I leave the hospital I'm working at?
nurses who changed specialties, how many months working full time did you need to stand on your feet at your new unit/specialty?

And folks who are neurotypical are going to find what you said a hard pill to swallow.
why? are people really this thin skinned?
fwiw these people I described are not the doctors, but like 40% of the nurses. Doctors are not the reason I quit, but these nurses are. I'm actually gonna miss working with some nurses here, the good ones, the drama free ones.
Often in life you have to pretend to “fit in”, it’s just the price of living in a society.
does that means listening to dumb stories I don't care about? My brain starts yelling me to leave.
It would be bearable if they didn't act like children (another coworker, a neurotypical one if you like, told me that).
but don't you hate your life or makes it very miserable and tiring?
I mean, expecting everyone to fuck me over would make me angrier I believe, like going to work and constantly ruminate about how every coworker and client is going to ruin my day.
If you are a cynic, how do you don't ruminate?
or is cynicism more 'no expectations no disappointments'?
You need a different manager. Distancing yourself from the one you have doesn’t sound realistic: Their job is to not be distant.
I'm lost here: what is their job?
Most of my co-workers don’t like me. My boss doesn’t even like me.
if your boss makes clear he doesn't like you, why are you still working there and why don't you have plans to quit?
I mean I don't understand why this is not a reason good enough to start looking for employment elsewhere. Don't you find it tiring? don't your coworkers and boss wear you down?
If my boss makes clear he doesn't like me it's only a matter of time before he starts treating me differently, giving me the worse assignments, refusing to acknowledge me...
This would affect me to the point of starting to hate that person.
There’s something seriously off about this story, and I can’t help but think you’ve left out some significant details.
not really, but feel free to think what you want.
I’m guessing you cursed out a coworker and not for the first time.
Not what happened.
there's a difference between cursing the poor work done by a coworker and cursing a person that was there and wasn't responsible for the dressing.
I don't understand why you choose not to see the difference.
why are you so easy to trigger?
I enjoyed reading your post, but Im the laziest sob to ever walk on earth and while I can promise to pay attention, I don't believe I'm gonna follow through.
do you have any advice for me, now that I'm applying and might work elsewhere? Is there anything I could ask during interviewing to indicate I loathe drama, people full of themselves talking politics or conspiracies or openly discussing how vaginas look like?
yes, a very beautiful post.
Lost_My_Mind: how do you do it? Because apparently I'm very thin skinned and overly political statements my coworkers blurt out trigger me or their boring marriage troubles bore me and I find myself trying to control me not to yell 'I don't give a f*ck about you, leave me alone', which of course earns me an invitation with management...
I assume that's an old pillowcase?
because he engages, won't disengage and I don't know how to politely tell him to piss off.
I don't want drama and people like this have a tendency for that.
I’ve worked in jobs with plenty of downtime, but have never worked in one where I could just wander off to exercise or read a book openly. I was expected to be finding things to do or to at least appear busy and engaged.
good point, this changes the calculus
The only thing that maintains sanity is having something to do to distract yourself
I don't see why reading or writing poetry don't accomplish that
I don't know if you're complaining but if you are, I don't understand you. I want to be you.
earning money doing almost nothing is meaningless? You earn money for doing nothing! and you cannot be fired, so...
do these jobs you got later pay you better?
thank you for your detailed post and the off topic bits, helpful as well
