My fiance works at Starbucks, was telling me last night how everyone is getting their hours cut. She only works part time luckily, but mentioned that other full-time workers are getting up to entire days cut from their schedule. The thing is, they've been doing so well, her manager has had to hire additional Barista's to keep up with demand. Even so, corporate has demanded they drastically reduce their labor costs, in addition to having just raised their prices. Just wanted to share this to say fuck Starbucks, and to encourage anyone who works there and is thinking about unionizing. You're worth much more than how they treat you.

I am all for workers being treated properly. But when people on the right see stuff that says “antiwork” it just gives off the vibe that people who support this movement are lazy and fit into the stereotype that they already have of us. If this sub was called something better like workersmatter (not exactly that because that is kinda cliche) then maybe workers on the right who agree with this movement would actually give it a serious thought. But the moment anyone sees the name “antiwork” they just assume this sub, and anyone against super rich corporations are asshats. What do you guys think, and btw this post is probably gonna get deleted because i have posted similar things before and they got insta deleted because these mods cant handle free speech. P.s i know i aint sayin nothing new i just had to get it off my chest

You don't even have to buy the book, contact your local library and get it through them. If they don't have they will buy a copy for you. This book should read by everyone here. It discusses how money is a terrible system of control and how humanity is being held back from free energy, insanely advanced technology (in order to control you) and how the amount of humans should allow us only a few hours of work per day and only the work that you're best at and enjoy the most simply because you enjoy it. Please read this book and let me know what you think

So I was an education major who graduated university years ago. I'm looking to just find a job right now that is more physically demanding. Like warehouse, etc. However I'm getting almost no callbacks right now. Should I list my degree on my resume or application? Please share your thoughts and prayers, thank you!

They are going out of their way for me & hinted that they are expecting a big tip (I think they think I don’t understand tip culture from the way they spoke). I agree the tip should be big. The total cost of the trip was $67. They are only driving me an hour or less out of the way but they are really saving me hours of time & other things. It’s worth $40-50 at least. What do you guys think? Is that a big enough tip? I really appreciate what they are doing for me. I don’t want to undercut them as they’re doing me a big favor. ETA It’s saving me more than 3 hours by them taking me this way. I want to make sure the money says that because I know words don’t mean shit lol

Looking at my budget and financial plans I tried to see what wage would work with what I wanted and came to $21hr (USD) I’d be okay with that considering it’s a bit high compared to what most people in my field get but low for what I think my skill set is worth. Anyway getting myself ready to ask for a wage increase in a few months if another job I was planning on doesn’t work out, what wage would you want from your work to consider it good enough for the life you want?
