I've made a couple threads about my coworkers at this point. To anyone who hasn't seen them, basically, to sum it up, the situation is this: I've been working at the same company for like 3 and a half years now, because at first I pretended to be a tryhard in order to give a good first impression. After that I toned it down but kept doing my job, and they can't stand it because they're tryhard betabuxxers themselves and can't cope with the fact that my job isn't the main priority in my life.
I used to try to compomise a little to earn their approval, with some tricks to make myself seem hardworking (which i posted here to help other wagies), but now they're whining again. I don't even know what they want exactly bc they only want to talk shit behind my back and refuse to tell me, or if they tell me it's very vague like "i dont think your attitude is professional enough ", "you should try to be the best " etc.
At this point I'm basically doing my job so I can sue when they fire me, but not doing anything extra to earn their approval, ignoring their shit talking, and waiting to get fired and sue (employment isn't at will here), and after that, my plan is to take a sabbatical year between unemployment benefits and the lawsuit cash, and use that time to do a last ditch attempt at ascending with all my efforts, in order to either ascend or prove there's nothing I can do.
However, its still uncomfortable to work with these guys. My mental health isn't great due to being incel and depressed, and I like to think that I don't care about them, but tbf they lowkey take a toll in my self esteem, and I was actually happier when they liked me at work. It is what it is though, because at this point, I don't think I can turn it around since they're already talking shit behind my back, which is something that tends to become a vicious cycle, and even if I could, I don't want to give in to people who's bullying me and do what they want. I also can't quit because that compensation cash is proportional to how long you've been working somewhere before getting fired, so if I leave I get no sabbatical year.
So I think I can only cope with not being appreciated at work, until they finally decide that the shit they're imagining I'm doing has gotten too bad, and take the final step of firing me.
