I Don’t Owe Your Company Jack (And Neither Do You) | Brutally Human

Are we seriously still pretending that staying at a job you hate = loyalty? Nah. That’s not loyalty—that’s slow-motion suffering in fluorescent lighting.In this Brutally Human episode, I’m tearing apart the myth of “job longevity” and why you don’t owe companies your sanity just to make your résumé look pretty. From the classic “Can you explain this gap in your employment?” (spoiler: I could, but do you need it? No.) to the generational lies about loyalty, we’re calling out the BS and making space for some real healing. Here’s what we’re diving into: • Why the “stick it out” playbook your parents gave you doesn’t work anymore • The brutal truth about job longevity vs. actual loyalty • The generational gap between Boomers, Millennials, and Gen Z in the workplace • How to answer (or NOT answer) that ridiculous “employment gap” question • Practical ways to stop suffering in silence and start building a life that serves youBrutal. Honest. Healing. That’s the vibe.If you’ve ever felt guilty for leaving a job that didn’t serve you, this episode is your permission slip to stop apologizing.#BrutallyHuman #WorkCulture #MentalHealth #EmploymentTruths #WorkLifeBalance #MillennialsAtWork #CorporateBS #Healing
