I have a question and I'm not so sure if this fits here but In my job my boss (and other 2 I had) always wanted to eat with their team, like all together, daily and if you did not show up you actually weren't being part of team, they say that you are not someone reliable (I mean come on, it doesn't have anything to do with my team work and my responsibilities who I want to eat) may be it's something cultural, maybe it's something from here I really want to know, is this normal for you too?

This community has grown so much…
Can't believe how big this sun has gotten. I used to scroll through these pages maybe a year ago? Now it's over 1 million and jumping. I guess that says it all right?
I probably spent 4-6 hours in unpaid labor to be told I was second best. Literally, the company said if there was another position they would give it to me, but someone else was better. To top it all off, they offered me part-time freelance work when I had applied for their full-time job. I hate this system and just wanted to rant to people who get it.
COME HELP UNIONIZE r/place
Let's send a clear message to r/place to unionize their workplace. The U and the start of the N can be found at (716,999), but we need some help if we want to survive. Thanks in advance Comrades, united we stand!
It finally happened. I was laid off. The company I worked for went bankrupt & every single employee was let go that same day. No warnings or anything. I had been searching for a new job because at this one, I was overworked (due to layoffs in previous months) and underpaid (due to budget concerns), so I’m not that upset, although I do feel for everyone who needed the job to put food on their tables. It was a remote job so we were issued company laptops. I got a really nice 2 Terabyte, 16-in 2019 MacBook Pro. I edited for this company so they gave me a computer that could handle pretty heavy editing. The problem is, when the company went bankrupt / everyone was laid off, all of our company emails were shut off almost immediately. It’s been a while now, and nobody has contacted me (or my…
Nurse rant. Suggestions welcome.
Im a nurse (LVN with 8yrs in the game) and i work for a government funded community clinic system in a major US city (top 4). Ive been working here since 2018 but took a 6 month break (9/20-3/21)due to burnout from COVID, working short staffed (i was the only nurse in a large clinic for a while), and also training other staff members. Recently the company gave bonuses to employees that have been with the company for 1 year +. (Bonuses were promised to be ‘at least 1000$’ but actually ended up being around 600$ for some as taxes were deducted) I received a total bonus of 0$. When i asked HR and my manager why i didn’t receive it they said it was because i ‘didn’t meet the criteria because i had a gap in service’. I also mentioned that EVERYONE that worked should be receiving bonuses as…
Shame Companies
How can we publically expose and shame companies and corporations that pay unfair and poverty level wages? We need to wreck these companies PR until they pay people more.
Boss said they're gonna let me go soon. So, I faked a sick day today. 😀 I had some stuff due today that I really should get done (and can, if given a couple of hours), but I don't care. I get to work early and stay back late enough where I risk missing my bus home. I skip lunchtime entirely nowadays and plant my butt firmly in my seat for 8-10 hours. I am tired. And that should be enough. Just got a call from my coworker following up on something I should've done. Didn't do it because I genuinely didn't want to. Whatever. Will there be repercussions on Monday? Absolutely. Do I care? Kinda, but not as much as I should. My sh!t boss only provides “feedback” on a monthly basis to crap all over me and accuse me of not “working hard like the rest of the…
