Signs of a toxic job? – 11/04/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. It seems gossip rules around here and I try to stay far from it. Today “PEI” as I call her attended a conference to train on research topics. “PEI’s” colleague and a great co-worker to me resigned her position last month. She resigned because both “PEI” and “DD” the…

I hope everyone is doing okay. My boss wanted to join the sponsor and myself on our call ☎️ this morning. He got a rude awakening, but I ask myself if the program team really knows what they are supposed to do? It seemed the sponsor is fed up with all of us. She knows…
