I had been a stay at home mom since I had my twins. Having 3 kids under 3 made working unfeasible. While I was home with them, I had been finishing up my degree, with hopes of getting a teaching job eventually. Fast forward, I had just finished my degree, and the twins were in Kindergarten. I had a sizable gap in my resume, and was looking to build up some experience. One of my best friends let me know that her daycare was hiring. I had an interview and was hired on the spot for $10/hr. I was “part time” but worked 7am – 2pm Monday-Friday. I had let them know when I was hired, I absolutely had to leave by 2pm so I could get my kids off the school bus at 2:30. Most everyone else worked a 9hr day, and got an hour lunch. I was lucky…

My GM made a rape joke to me
I ware a necklace that is obviously an Urn. You can see the ashes through glass. My GM looked at it, then me, and said “Ha, is that your rape whistle” then walked off. It took me a bit to realize what was actually said and potentially implied. I'm fucking pissed off
I’m 19 and work as a bartender. I just quit today with no notice because I feel I’ve been exploited. I’ve worked 2 12 hour shifts then 2 9 hour shifts back to back. I’m completely drained, I have no life outside work and I’m burnt out to my core.

I was going to vomit today and asked if I could go home just to be met with a 😐 face from the managers,…
On mobile and I suck at typing cause I'm drinking Jim beam so fucking bear with me. Ive had a shit day. Started as cashier at a privately owned convenience store about 3 years ago. This store was literally the only convenience store in the best part of a pretty decent sized town (census is at almost 100k ppl). When I started they didn't have a “store manager” just the owners wife running the day to day. After a few months and me busting ass for them and doing odd jobs whatever, they wanted to make me store manager so they could step back and relax. I have some computer and networking skills which they liked. So now I'm store manager, after less than 6 months employed. I do everything to the absolute best of my capabilities. The store saw profit after I came on. Like almost 20% better than…
