Just found out the company i work for pulls in 2mil a week & i got rejected for a .25cent raise cause im struggling.

I make 18.25/hr so roughly thats $2000 a month after a 40hr work week..so because you make 8,000,000 a month in profit & think that my measly $2000 a month is apparently too expensive towards a company budget..i cant get that small ass wage increase? Yeah I’ll definitely participate in that “may strike” fuck whatever system we’re in right now cause its a bunch of bullshit..idc,these billionaires are full of shit & me being in poverty is not the answer.

Could the corporate owned media please stop gaslighting us?

https://www.cnbc.com/amp/2022/04/05/this-38-year-old-makes-160000-per-month-in-passive-income-and-only-works-5-hours-a-week-now.html “I also bring in $120,000 per month in gross sales through my online coaching business, which teaches clients exactly what I did to make The Recording Revolution a success. At 38, I've achieved something incredible: Between my two businesses, I work only five hours per week now, and I get to spend the rest of my time with my family.” I get what's happening in this article. He's being presented as smart and therefore it's acceptable for him to work 5 hours a week and earn $160,000 a month in passive income. It doesn't disrupt the narrative that if you are suffering financially it's your own fault. It perpetuates that narrative. See he was on food stamps and became a father. So he got off his ass and smartly grew his business to the point where he makes more in a month than you do in two years. He…

Unpaid internship is stupid, useless, and a cesspool of exploiters.

In what im studying 2 years of school and 3 months of unpaid internship in a company im which the school chooses is obligatory. Unpaid in terms of they're not obligated to pay us, if the company is willing they could pay, the point of this is to learn how to work and apply what you learned. These companies who gets unpaid interns to TEACH them are getting paid 3$/€ per hour per student they take in. So all in all they get (3×8)x90 = 2160$/€ per student. However, that's not the fucking case. They put me in a company where 4 out of 6 people in the department I got put are unpaid interns, and one of the non-interns is a newcomer who never had experience and have never touched a PC before. What I studied is programming and networking, instead I got put in ticketing and incidents where…

I just hate the kinds of people you see at work

I work at a factory with tons of old people and I'm just needing to vent cause today really pissed me off. Every job I've ever had I've run into the “I WANNA WORK MESELF TO DEATH! I LOVE OVERTIME! YOURE LAZY IF YOU DONT!” Tbh, I got shit outside of work to take care of and shit, I study and shit. Anyway today was a real problem. My apartment was literally flooding LOL I went in not to get a point and explained the situation (I didn't know what it was at the time) and this fucking bitch who always says sideways shit about me being “lazzzzY” or me wanting to go home, she said “he just got here, already trying to go home” WHILE MY FUCKING APARTMENT IS FLOODING. I used all my towels and stayed up all night combating the flood that morning at work maintenance went…

I would love an explanation for why my manager gets paid 4x as much as me to do seemingly nothing but sit and stare at the staff room camera feed and spy on our conversations
