Month: April 2022

Last time I was searching for employment 2020, I applied at home depot never interlining to work there. My state required that you apply at three places per week to get UI. I applied at HD and they desperately wanted to hire me. After the interview the supervisor told me there was a drug test that included cannabis (legal here). Knowing that I didn't want the job anyway and how expensive the lab work is and the fact that I smoke the night before, I did it anyway. When the doc called me to let me know that i tested positive, I said “yea i smoked the day before”. He seemed confused and asked why I took the test, I told him that I know how expensive and pain in the ass it is for everyone. He was not happy, I never heard back from HD. Edit: I never smoke…

Hey all, so I'll keep my mumbo jumbo short lol. The place I work at now pays me more than any job in the past, which is like 23 an hour and the benefits are good, however I really dont like this field and was thinking if its a me thing or if I should follow what I really want to do.

Ran into a “manager” during a two day gig at a hotel turned out to be a snaky dude. Hired mostly Mexicans. I don't mind working with Mexicans or anything but the men wore rude as hell. Wouldn't introduce, or say hello to me. Was pretty much silent with me, but jabbered with their own coworkers like crazy. He stuck me inside the laundry room for four hours, and decides to go and do easy work because he didn't want to engage with me. I got the vibe that I threatened his managerial position. Towards the end of my shift he walked by me off camera, and snarked at me. Fuck these types of cowards in the work place. Wishing I didn't have to work, and run into people like that.

Maybe bad choice of title but lemme explain We all know 90% of the world isn't gonna be wealthy any time soon, this is the point of capitalism, which sucks. I am a 24yo man and I don't think having kids and a wife is worth it at all, obviously because of the legal liabilities of a marriage and far as kids are concerned: 1) I don't have the desire or 'need' to have kids and won't even have it when I'm 35, by then I'll already have off'd myself coz I'm fucking tired of the hustle for absolutely minimum money and my body's just sick as fuck and as a result so is my mind. 2) Because according to most of the research done on this subject, a single kid costs ~200,000k USD in 20 years on average in the developed western nations, and this means I could save…

I work as a public employee in a country where public employees have some privileges like higher average income and also I cannot be fired from my job unless I do something really, really bad. My boss was the worst person you can imagine. She was racist, homophobic, rude, and used to scream at everyone. Before I was hired along with many others, people working my current position were not hired by the government, they were regular workers, so they were scared as hell to say anything about my boss, afraid they'd lose their jobs. So there was no complain about her. Although talking to anyone in my workplace you'd soon find out that even the boss of my boss was scared of her. She was that Karen threatening to sue you if you told her she was being rude. I used to have anxiety crisis just looking at her.…

I'd like to give some context: I'm a hairstylist. Right now I'm working at a commission salon, which means I receive 50% of every service I do plus tip. I'm newly licensed, so I have the least amount of clients. My boss totally takes advantage of me. Making me deep clean her salon all the time, help her daughter with her clients (even though her daughter doesn't pay anything to her or me), and on top of that barely advertises me on our social media. This isn't the main thing I'm upset about, though. A long time ago she told us we would need to pay for the products we use when we do our own hair, which is fair. It was never really set in stone because she never told us if we should check out like a normal appt. or if we would just pay her. Well I…

I’m applying for some jobs and one of them are offering 10k more than another. But the lower paying is giving more career progression plans. I’m not sure what I should go for?
