My break starts when my ass is in a chair, not when i start my long walk to the breakroom. Anyone who thinks that's normal is severely fucked up.

Like I can use context clues to know what it is, but how can you tell by reading the job description that it is one? I have a high EQ and I excel at emotional labor. I'm a strong communicator. I know others can get bored doing a fake email job. I figure if I get burnt out I'd just move along. I'm at a point I'd like something mindless. I have a background and skills in medical settings I can fall back on if something new didn't pan out.

summary: my manager made me work 6hrs on a injured foot and then i got fired bc i had to call out the next day since i couldn’t walk just wanted to share my story and thought this was an appropriate place to do so. i’m a teenager and i worked at a local brewery as a barback from november-midway through march. i liked it a lot at first, having no breaks sucked (that’s legal in my state as long as the employee is above 16) and ended up worsening my back (i injured it badly as a child so standing for long periods of time really hurts) and putting up with weird drunk people (especially creepy men i’m a fairly attractive girl) was annoying but overall it was fine. pretty easy job and rlly nice pay for a teen. however i noticed a change in attitude towards me from…

Dear Fellow Antiworkers, I have an idea to help with all of these terrible circumstances when it comes to work, wages, and terrible jobs in general. What if we create an organization dedicated to a more thorough inspection of America's workforce, this organization can have unlimited authority to penalize companies for treating workers like crap. I know something like this exists to some degree. But this would a more involved organization, maybe with help from federal or state governments. This organization would also examine the psychology of companies and why they are failing/high turnover rate, stuff like that. Let me know your thoughts, and feel free to offer ideas and suggestions. I'm more spitballing here for the hell of it, could be a shitty idea but Idk I'm tired of people being treated like shit etc. Thanks guys
