The “Anti” Working Hour -Tears for Fears
Company closing
So if you view my last posts in here. I have dealt with my boss trying to force me to go to a life coach become his perfect employee. As well as training someone to do my entire job under the promise of a .75 cent raise. Now after packing the bulk of our product alone. My boss has come to me to say in a couple months his partners will be “absorbing” the company and I will have to interview with them to become a manager for them. I asked if it was guaranteed an the interview was a formality or if there is a chance I will be jobless. He said in his opinion it is guaranteed but it could go the other way. So it is not guaranteed asshole. Also the company absorbing us does not pay even its management over 15 an hour. He also threw…
I need your opinions
I'm a recent addition to the sub, thanks for having me. My story is a bit convoluted so stick with it as I need your opinion on if I should apply for the exact same position I was gunning for a year ago at my old employer. So, 4 years ago I accepted a position that had a “verbal agreement” attached “guaranteeing” me a certain rate increase and certain position title if I was able to grow the department enough underneath me to justify it. 2 years ago, it happens! Low and behold, the title and pay guarantees have changed and the position is given to someone else, now my new boss. This person and I do not get along from the get go, leading me to talk directly with the CEO about the promises made when I first started and why they were not met. He directs me to…
Snow days in desert
I live in a desert. Which had me thinking that we never get snow days which could correlate to working more. You know how when there is a blizzard, tornado, or other weather advisory they recommend people stay home which means a day with the family and time alone. Where I live they give heat advisory but everything stays the same. No one stays home and people still hike surrounding mountains which causes a lot of fatalities. Lol. I think it would be cool if we had the option to stay home during heat advisory days. xD
Have you made the move?
Have you made the move from a well-paid career with horrible and disrecpetful bosses to working for nice people with less pay? How did it turn out?
I’m a mid-20’s M working in a financial institution. I’m getting married at the end of this year, and I have decided to start growing my hair out longer. My fiancé is very supportive of this, and she has expressed her liking for my new style. I wash my hair several times a week, and typically style it on a daily basis. Occasionally, I will wear my hair up in a small bun to keep it out of my face while working. I work in a cubicle setting and have little to no interaction with more than 10 people a day within the organization. I do my work, and have shown the ability to do my job exceptionally well. However, someone in my upper management talked to my boss and basically told them that I will not progress in the company if I keep my hairstyle as it is. I’ve…
