I don't usually make personal threads, but I'm in a bind.
Me and 2 other co-workers quit our jobs in november/december. Our work environment was toxic for about 2 years (and still is). I was number 13 to quit (out of a total of 22 people).
Two of our bosses were fired after me and my co-workers quit. Here's the thing though... I was in a bad place.
I was one of the people who had to endure most of the abuse. I simply had to get the hell away from that place, it simply wasn't healthy.
Now... To my little dilemma. I signed up for a job that I have barely any experience with, but the boss was kind and he understood my predicament (he had read the papers). He told me, "as long as you are willing to learn, we'll figure it out!".
Fast-forward to yesterday. One of my former-colleague's (who I quite like and respect) called me up and said, "Listen, I know this is going to sound strange to you, because I know what kind of person you are... But my boss would like to meet with you".
I met with him today. He offered me a job on the spot, a job that I have experience with and quite frankly, I quite enjoyed doing. The pay is slightly better, a lot of my former colleagues work there, I get more vacation days and, hadn't I already signed up for the other job, I would've taken this one in a heartbeat. This fucking sucks, and I don't know how to tackle this shit.
Anyone of you who has been in a similar predicament? I'd love some advice.
