2 days notice isn’t enough apparently..

I have a job interview this Thursday at 4pm, which I just scheduled today, I start work at 5pm and my shifts 3 times out of a week are only 3 hours (not worth) I go into work and let my manager know “Hey just letting you know I won't be coming in this Thursday, I have a appointment” to which she goes “2 days notice is too little notice, can't you re-schedule for another time or one of your personal days??” lmao Nah, I'm not re-scheduling a interview for a potential new job for you, my position isn't even important, I just scan in documents ffs and I feel like I'm losing a braincell every time I do it. Be thankful you're getting a notice and I'm not just calling in the day of Told her I'd check if they'll have any other openings but oh no, I “checked”…

I’m going to quit. What should I do?

I plan on leaving my job as soon as possible. There are several reasons for this, but suffice to say, I was a poor fit for the job and it was a poor fit for me. What are some things people should know before quitting? What steps should someone in my position take and when? I realize these may sound like questions for a normal jobs forum, but everyone already knows what they would recommend — spruce up your resume, develop a positive social media presence, be pleasant, prompt and well-dressed during interviews, have another job lined up beforehand — etc. I think a second opinion is needed for job-seekers with an antiwork perspective. — (About my situation: Over the past 20 years of my employment history, I have never been fired or quit a job. I am financially responsible for my wife (disabled) and our two-year-old. I own my…

I feel pressured to learn everything in 1 day and I can barely have Lunch break

Please bare with me, long post ahead and I really need advice. hello and please excuse my grammar, english it is not my first language. long story short, I (23F) started looking for a new job and applied for one at a local cofee shop, where they also sell electronic cigarettes. I was called for an interview last week, I showed up and the employer wasn't that interested in asking me questions, but made it clear he expected a few more people to be interviewed that day.

If not, he will pay me for 3 days. I agreed because it seemed a good ideea to…

You want drivers desperately but you give them a bunch of bull

Company tells me in an email to fill out the application on a link they sent me. Ok, great.. should be straight forward. It was 18 freaking pages of utter horse shit. The damn website had its bullshit auto fill super loaded down with errors so no matter what you typed, it either misspelled it, deleted it, or got frozen. I emailed the HR guy back saying “If this is how you run your operation by wasting over an hour of my time with an application form website that doesn't even work, then your company is beyond help and doesn't deserve any future employees. Do not contact me again as I have wasted enough time with you people.”
