Quit job and field today due to demotion and poor management

I quit my job as a veterinary assistant after one year due to a demotion and poor management, including a narcissistic director and frequent staff changes.

What I wish I knew
"I wish I knew how to protect myself from toxic work environments and management changes"
If I could tell you one thing
"Don't be afraid to stand up for yourself and leave a toxic job"
