When the workplace is a mental prison

Mental Health

Here is how your day goes: Eight hours, on average, are spent sleeping and another eight working for the 9am-5pm shift brigade. Those are 16 out of 24 hours in a day. How do you spend the remaining six hours? The above is different for the jobless, but in a nutshell, a huge chunk of one’s life is spent at the workplace.

Of course, the Covid-19 pandemic introduced remote working, but vaccinations and relaxing of health protocols saw many resume working from physical locations-and the unlucky were back to dealing with nasty bosses, conniving workmates and generally, the negative energy that comes with working in a toxic environment.
