Good luck. Can't you just ignore them until then? It seems they are feeding on your lack of confidence. You are better than them.

I can't believe you are having no luck in the care sector - they are usually crying out for people! And you sound nice.

Look up local care homes in the area, and spend a nice sunny day once you have stopped work walking round, seeing what you think of them, and hand-delivering a letter with your CV and covering letter saying you have always really wanted to work in care, and would they be interested in trying you out, maybe? to any that you like the look of. (Stress that you could respond quickly to a telephone call, to be a short notice fill in person, if this is the case!)

That's awful, but I also think you will feel better if you don't have to go back. If it's not too late though, could you take this higher in the management chain to try to get it resolved? People don't really change, but they can perhaps be made to behave a bit better (at least enough time for you to look for something else). If they are treating everybody like this though you would wonder about their staff turnover!

i've already gone if i am contacted by higher management perhaps i would explain things. Right now i just want to forget it and move on. I think i would have got the silent treatment if i stayed and went to the regional manager, which could be worse than being !!!!!ed about

Well, I must be the exception but I think you're daft to just jack in a job like that in a recession. I hope you don't need a reference or to claim JSA!

AS stated, there should be plenty care jobs around, go entry level and work your way up. It takes a special kind of person to care for others (im not one of them ill be honest) and there is not many about.

How did they react?

fluffypaws, how will you cope if the same things happen at your next job and one after that and one after that?

She can cross that bridge if she has to cross it, otherwise whats the point dwelling on very worse case scenarios.
