I've heard similar stories, but your situation is really bad. You're not crazy! But, you are crazy to stay there, despite whatever perks keep you there. You are going to go right over the deep end. How do you know you won't be able to get another job unless you try? (I'm a job developer and a career counselor, so I see this stuff all the time)

You have gained quite a few skills, I'm sure, during your ten years at your company. I'm sure those skills can be applied to another field or profession easily.

Start to work on your resume, portfolio and game plan to get the HELL out of there! Good luck.

: We have to ASK if we can go to the bathroom, it's pretty frigging humiliating. The lunch break is the only gauranteed one, and we're only allotted 45 minutes. Luckily we don't have to leave the building, we cna eat in the company cafeteria. Yummy. I bring my own lunch, I wouldn't touch the crap they serve for a 50% raise!! YEARLY! Yes, it's THAT BAD.

: Well, that's about all I can think of to gripe about. I'm SO dreading going back there (I'm taking a vacation; I'm almost surprised we get them anymore...and we heard just a few weeks ago that mandatory vacation time was going to be cut by about a week). I just want to know; is this what it's like EVERYWHERE? I don't THINK it is, because I keep hearing about things like "dental plans" and "decent pay"....but then again, this is the only place I've ever worked. Been here for about 10 years. I'm scared to leave (as much as I want to) because I don't know if I could get another job.

: Sombody tell me I'm wrong. PLEASE.
