[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Exactly. It’s like the employees who constantly spread negativity without any proof or real evidence to back up their claims. Eventually, they get to the point where it’s just toxic energy all around.

At some point, you have to ask yourself—why stay in an environment that makes you this miserable, and worse, why drag others down with you? If it’s all complaints and no solutions or credible sources, it’s probably time to move on and find a healthier space for everyone involved.[/quote]

But maybe the “negativity” is just a response to real problems that aren’t being addressed! If people are frustrated and teachers are leaving, that’s not just complaining—it’s a warning sign! It’s easy to dismiss when you’re not the one feeling unheard or seeing the impact. Just because things aren’t “neatly packaged” with proof doesn’t mean the issues aren’t real![/quote]

If all the focus is on complaints, nothing gets solved. At some point, people need to come together and offer solutions. Constantly pointing out problems without any action just keeps the cycle going, draining everyone’s energy and making the situation worse.

But that’s the point! People are trying to find solutions, but the HOS won’t listen! What’s left to do when your concerns are ignored? Complaining isn’t about being negative—it’s about getting attention on things that need attention. If the system keeps brushing off valid concerns, what choice do they have but to keep speaking out, even if it's not in the way you want?[/quote]

Staying in a toxic space doesn’t fix anything. Sometimes stepping away gives you space to breathe and think clearly. If you're stuck in a negative environment, it might be better to remove yourself and allow others a chance to reset, rather than dragging everyone further into the frustration.[/quote]

No, that's exactly the problem! Walking away doesn’t fix it—it just leaves the same issues for others to deal with! We can't just keep leaving when things get tough—someone has to stay and fight for change! If we all walk away, nothing changes! You’re not solving anything by stepping out—you’re giving up on the people who still need help and letting the system win. We can't just let it stay broken![/quote]

Sometimes stepping away isn’t giving up; it’s making room for change. If you’re drained and emotionally stuck, stepping back can help you see things from a fresh angle. You can return with more clarity, new ideas, and the energy needed to actually make a difference. Change can come from outside too—sometimes leaving is exactly what’s needed to reset and approach things with fresh eyes.
