I hate this assumption that if you have “rich parents” you are automatically rich. My mom makes abt 200k a year but I am not rich. The moment I turned 18 I was cut off and had to work all by myself. The reason being my mom would only give me her money if I followed her Rules meaning I had to marry the guy she wanted me to marry, could not have friends, had to do a job she wanted me to do and etc. So stop with this stigma that everyone who has “rich parents” are privileged cuz it’s not true. I am working about 6 hours a day and renting a place with 3 other roommates. The apartment I’m renting isnt even on my name. Even as a kid I never got a birthday gift etc. Edit: Ik my mom isn’t “rich” but 200k a year is…

Unfortunately despite being able to have up to 40 hrs of sick leave, you can only use 24 hrs in a year. What the hell is that bullshit?! Why give me 40hours of leave if I can't use half of it?

I currently work in fast food for 12 an hour. To get this job I was required to sign a paper allowing them to conduct a strip search whenever they chose. Employers know you need money to survive and you'll sign anything to get it if you're desperate enough. This is a Fast food job mind you. Not a prison trying to stop contraband or a tech firm guarding information. F***ing fast food. Wtf could they possibly need to strip anyone down for? Cell phone in my prison pocket? I took this job because I can't handle anymore overtime, I figured I'll at least get a day or two off a week which is an improvement over previous 15 an hour 7 days a week factory job who leaves everyone in temp staff limbo instead of hiring them so they don't get pay raises or benefits. Also I'm in a…

hey r/antiwork I am probably going to resing/change positions internally at my workplace in the foreseeable future. The workplace environment is not very pleasant, and I am not the only one considering leaving. Also, some ill willed coworkers with possible malicious intents (ruining my chances at the next place, and also keeping me here, so they don't have to deal with the increased workload) are already asking questions, including my future plans. Since some of them are definitely part of the reason I want to leave, I am looking for ways to dismiss them while also possibly fucking with them. I am asking your advice on possible answers as to what am I going to do after resigning. I am looking for both believable but repulsive, scarry, funny, answers or even absurd stuff like joining a cult or hippie commune. Inheriting a fortune from a nigerian prince level shit is…

I live in a cheaper country so i don't need a lot in order to sustain myself. But most jobs make me feel really anxious. I don't mind “working”. But i cannot take the verbal abuses and pressure that most jobs entail. finding work Online is also not very easy, too much competition. Can anyone suggest how i can find simple jobs? I don't mind doing telecalling/BD/Counselling type jobs.
