Episode 76: Toxic Shops

On this week’s episode of GTW, we’re talking about toxic shops. What makes a shop toxic, what can you do about it, what can your management can do about it? There’s a lot of ways shops can become toxic, but there are only really a few solid methods that can fix them. We want to know what has made some of the shops that you’ve been in toxic, and how it made you want to leave. We also talk about some ways to decompress from working in a toxic shop, so you don’t take that toxicity home with you and take it out on your family.

Also Uncle Jimmy recounts going to a pick and pull that looked like the “highway of death” from the first Gulf War.
