Stopping american economy
Ive always though about this, but realizing the numbers if every frontline worker decided to just quit their job how mang companies would collapse within a week? (Baring anyone applies to fill those positions) restaurants grocery stores retail etc would just stop functioning and the true worth of front line employees would be seen,. I find no reason why execs should be paid so much they are not the cogs that turn the wheel they are the wheel turned by the cogs they lose their value immediately if the cogs cant be replaced Sadly front line workers will always be treated the worse, due to the economic crisis they are put through because of these top dogs If only we could stage a mass call out just 1 say for these companies just to see them writhe in agony because their front line isnt there to. handle business it'd be…
They are about to fire me for no reason
I’ve been hired recently and got 3 strikes within a 90day period. you get 11 total, but if you get over 3 you get fired and so they said if I get one more strike then I’m fired. The manager didn’t even fucking tell me that this was the policy until after I got my 3rd strike. My father is dealing with cancer and was in the hospital, so I had to call off one day and the other was because I showed up over 5min late one time. This is some absolute bullshit. They treat you like a fucking child and are willing to fire me over legitimate life situations. “We OnLy WaNt sErVaNtS wHo ObEy aLL oRdErs! nO eXcEpTiOnS!” I fucking hate it here, but I need this job. This POS don’t seem to understand that people have lives and situations that are beyond their control. Fuck petco…
So I have a tib, fib fracture and am on a lot of medication making me pretty sleepy. I had a 6 hour surgery fixing it and I'll need another one. This recruiter was talking to me about this company that “really wanted me” and apparently I needed to do the interview. They made it seem like it was just me they were interested in as they'd already held multiple interview days. They told me if I didn't accept the next interview date they would never represent me again and told me an opportunity like this won't come around again. So I do the interview and obviously I'm in bed in severe pain, they recruitment company gets feedback complaining I was in bed. Complaining it looked “messy” (that's because I made a comment to turn off my camera saying, just sorting something on my bed out. When I…
Only job I've ever liked so I put up with the red flags from the get go. So really I brought it upon myself but I'm still annoyed as it is actually a distant relative who runs the business. I left a permanent job to go there because my panic attacks were being brought on by members of staff making my life a joke. Plus I had an hour commute each way all for a job that was making me clean the floors on my hands and knees, laughing at me and taking videos of me etc. As someone with social anxiety that was a huge blow to me as a person, hard to describe to anyone who doesn't have it but I can't even be seen in a photo as I throw up when I see myself on a camera. But anyway I left my job to go to…
I’m Finally Taking the Step
I've worked at a hotel that sucks my soul out of my body for over a year and a half now, and tomorrow I'm turning in my resignation. I'm tired of being yelled at for shit I can't control by grumpy guests, and I'm tired of being treated less than human by management. Tomorrow I'm off and I'm walking in and pinning my notice to the board. It will feel amazing. 🙂
give free stuff to a customer today
I worked at a place and we do different things during rhe day but for these 2 hours I was a cashier and a women who looked like had cancer and she was with her child just i didn't scan a lot of items. To me the medical bills and he child costed money to support. Just reduced the price of everything and didn't scan most items. I felt bad so I just gave away free stuff without telling them i was so. I was doing so and had a good conversation with them and gave the kid stickers. I saved them money and said fuck it. They bought let say 10 bananas as an example and put down 1. I just made it super cheap for them. Company makes enough money so I didn't feel bad. But I felt good helping someone who really needed a good day.
I started baling hay by hand, push mowing the lawn, feeding the animals and hand washing our cars when I was 9. Started tree work when I was 16, done that for many years and been working at a plant for the past 2 years and i fucking hated every bit of it my entire life. How do these fuckers I work with just thrive doing all of this hard work? I mean they enjoy the shit out of it.

Since COVID wiped out many companies and restaurants many people I've talked to and former colleagues have told me they're padding their resume, extra dates here and there and things of that nature. However some of my bolder acquaintances have taken it to the next level; entirely fabricating Supervisor or Manager positions and restaurants and airlines that no longer exists. I had never really seen this level of lying before COVID. I can see the logic, though. It may be impossible to verify if so-and-so really did work as a manager or lead server at this restaurant that's now closed, or at this airline that no longer exists. I have actual supervisory experience and its very tempting. Then again for good jobs and jobs I want to keep I may not take the risk. For lower end jobs though I can certainly see the appeal. I did have a colleague…
