Sat, 02 Jul 2022 15:37:59 +0000

Life becomes fulfilling when we secure a job opportunity of our preference especially when it offers good pay. This was the case with Wens, whose fortune changed soon after settling into the job. Positive feedback was unheard of, and criticism before colleagues became the norm. According to his boss, he was a burden but still, they were not willing to let him go. Going to work became traumatic, lost interest in himself and compassion for the family. Due to his courage to face the impossible, the ending leaves him fulfilled. People do not leave toxic workspaces, they leave toxic bosses.
