Month: April 2022

I was on the three month probation so yes of course they can fire me without reason but I feel the it was done unfairly . As they said a beginner can work for their Garden company and that they’ll train you.. they said what’s my weakness in interview and I said overthinking and perfectionism but something I can work on. Of course I was slow the three days because I was processing the information and assimilating it to make sure I done my work properly and not make fickle mistakes … however when they said to up the pace I was able to move much more rapidly. It’s so contradicting they say to do it in this particular way yet be fast and unmet the desired results. I done everything they liked it to be, I understand my mistake is doing what they say literally . They said you…

The other day I overheard my boss talking to some of my colleagues and made jokes on my behalf, not knowing that I was on my way back from lunch. When I walked past them they just ignored me, and none of my colleagues really said anything back and just pretended it was funny. This isn't the first time this has happened in the office, any advice?

My last Job did raises and Me and one other got 3%, everyone else less. Every one is upset because company is doing very well. So some how us 3%-r names got leaked. .34¢ . It was a crap distract and it worked. Very well. This from a company that says don't talk wages. (this is just a rant, unless I was put in physical danger there nothing to be done, I followed up on that)

I was contacted by a recruiter for a mid-sized software company abroad, who wanted someone with an “international background” (i.e. bilingual, worked in large international companies, and knows the market in multiple geographies) for a senior management role. Given that I've always wanted to travel to this country, I agreed to the interview. However, given that this is not as simple as accepting a job 2 located blocks down the road, as it involved moving to a new country + all the admin, lifestyle and financial hassle associated with it, I wanted to know what the compensation package is so I don't waste anyone's time, mine or the company's. I was not going to move to another country unless the compensation is SIGNIFICANTLY higher than what I'm making right now. The recruiter was very reluctant on giving me ANY info on this, but finally mentioned in passing (probably by accident)…

I work as mental health counselor at an agency and the burnout is real. I’ve been working at the same agency for about three years and started as an intern. I recently started to make the shift to outpatient counseling (just talk therapy) and assessments as I’m working towards my license. But I still have clients I see for in home counseling. For those clients I go to their homes for 2-3 hours at a time, about 3 times a week. My client base has grown rapidly and now I have 3 days in the office doing outpatient and 3 doing in home counseling. The paperwork has been overwhelming. It’s dictated by insurance provider that notes be in within 24 hours of the session and my company has been cracking down on any type of late note. It’s been three weeks in a row where I have been on an…

I am so tired of spending all my time doing this job and I have literally nothing to show for it.

Background – my employment contract (Canada) wants 12 weeks notice (no penalty listed but maybe they didn’t need to. And could still sue?). New job 7 weeks away. Bonus payment is 5 weeks away and is about $5000. Contract states no bonus if notice given before date of payment. These are my options: Give 7 weeks notice and hope all fine. No bonus and not 12 weeks notice. Give 2 weeks notice after I receive my bonus and hope all is fine. Not 12 weeks notice. Give 12 weeks notice and be Mia for the last 5 weeks (maybe ask to not be paid for those weeks) as new job starts in 7 weeks. No bonus. None of these are pleasant lol. But they are my options. I am taking the new job it is better. Edit: added info re suing?

and that someone is only one rank above you, newer to the firm, newer to the team
