Just know you are not alone in this world. Companies, governments and even unions worldwide are treating their most valuable and experienced employees like trash... not even recyclables as they claim to care about humanity and reducing carbon footprints. In America, it's about checking a box, a box for diversity hires. No longer will the the employee be treated as valuable if they do not; have pronouns, part of the lgbtqrs crowd, critically think, or haven't pledged allegiance to the liberals. Maybe all of what I just said does not apply to your part of the world but does here in USA. Your post rang with a lot of familiar truth for me. I do wish a healthy outcome for you and positive new future with a job you enjoy!
Thank you so much. I feel a lot better already.
