Yes, well behaved job culture is important for an employee. If the company expects the same from an employee it should also reciprocate the same. During these, so many of you facing the same problem. And at the EOD it comes with disappointment that after giving so much to the job results are not in our favour. Then comes this - Even if your manager were certain the problem was on your side (based on, say, seeing other people handle an identical workload without difficulty), she would still be having conversations with you about your workload and how to prioritize tasks. And if you were just not well suited to the pace of work, she’d be having more serious conversations with you about your performance. It’s even worse when you’re desperately trying to flag the problem and they’re not only refusing to discuss it but making you feel like the problem is you.
There's no need to be exhausted for a company which doesn't know your & your efforts value. But at the same time, it's our need!! You’ve got the strain of the pandemic plus the unexpected and traumatic death of a family member. And you’re in a job that involves working with trauma.
You deserve a job where you can say that you need help and be listened to. You deserve a job where your legitimate concerns about your role and your workload aren’t minimized and turned back around on you. You deserve a job where you can eat lunch and pause to drink water and not spend the weekend exhausted. This job isn’t it. It’s not you. It’s the job.
