Low income housing is bullshit in my state. They expect you to pay 40%+ on housing alone.

I was looking into some low income housing with my gf because we’ll be moving soon. I found a place where rent was about $1400/month And I asked what their requirements were to be considered low income. And to be considered low income, the household income could not be over $45,000. That’s absolutely insane to be making that little and having to spend $1400/month to live there and it’s considered low income. I thought low income meant cheaper prices??

thinking about quitting, would like your opinion.

There's a two part decision to my potentially quitting today, and I'd like to make sure I'm not overreacting. I needed a cash advance on my paychecks. We agreed to $200 total, and pay it back $50/paycheck until it's paid off. I get my paycheck today and it's $150 short. I talk to the manager who does the payroll and she told me to talk to the owner. The owner being the person who told me to talk to her if I see any payroll issues on the matter. I also have been getting scheduled 7 days a week and working by myself on all the busy days washing dishes. It's hard work by yourself, and if you don't move fast enough you may as well be running from a train you're more behind than you were just by showing up. Due to the always working and no time off…

Even the Apple is rotten.

“Apple’s return-to-office policy is far stricter than other big tech companies — and some employees say they plan to quit in protest. While Meta, Google and Amazon are letting at least some employees work remotely forever, Apple CEO Tim Cook is ordering all corporate employees back into the office at least one day per week beginning on April 11. The mandate ratchets up to two days per week on May 2 and three days per week on May 23. “I don’t give a single f—k about ever coming back to work here,” one Apple employee ranted on corporate message board Blind this week, saying they planned to resign the day they come back to the office. “I’m going to go in to say hello and meet everyone since I haven’t since I started and then sending in my resignation when I get home,” the employee wrote. “I already know I…

Why don’t i feel relief?

Hello everyone. I told my boss I would give her a 3 week notice before I started my new job (which I did) but instead I decided to just clock out at 2 weeks, say goodbye to no one and leave and never look back. I'm sending her an email while she's on lunch so she doesn't call me on my way back home, not that i would pick up. She's terribly unprofessional and yells and causes more stress for everyone than there needs to be and has lost three people in the last 7 months that I've been here because of her behavior. I'm ecstatic that I'll never have to listen to her or see her again for the rest of my life but I really thought I would walk away feeling relieved but I don't :/ maybe because this feels cowardly? My anxiety just couldn't take it anymore.…

Mandatory overtime should be illegal

At any time your employer can just decide that your weekends and free time are no longer yours and you have to comply or you might be losing your job. How is this a thing?

Am I required to work 2 weeks notice if I’m on paid medical leave?

Hi all, I’m expecting to accept an offer for a new job and am on paid medical leave with my current company. If I’m on the paid medical leave, am I required to come off of it to work the 2 weeks until I start my new job? MA if that helps.
