I hate my job. So, instead of doing it, I act super busy and allocate most of my work to my peers. When I finish a report at 5pm, I sit on it and send it only post mid night. Last week my manager said that they appreciate my hard work and initiative to utilise the peer's free time. So, I am getting promoted and as a manager I have to train my team members on the job by assigning them work
I’m 32 and I just got fired from Wendy’s because I couldn’t hold in my shit for 2 more hours. They told me I couldn’t go and I couldn’t hold it. So, I was gone not even 10 minutes and my manager said I had an attitude by saying “I wasn’t in there for 15 minutes, and I told my coworker I was going.”. He also said “We could hear noises from out here”. I just want my job back. I am living on the streets now, and my 62yo manager said “Have fun on the streets kid” right before he let me out of the door. Should I take my remaining money to send my manager and the staff lunch as an apology? This may help me get my job back. EDIT: I want y’all to know when you ask for fresh fries they just put them back in…
This might be a little off topic, so if it is, please feel free to remove it, I just needed to type this out in some way to get it off my chest. I have always lived in a state of poverty. Since I was old enough to understand the concept of money and its value, I have realized that my family and I have never had much of it, barely scrapping by most of my life. Even when it got better, it wasn't so much that we had “escaped” poverty, but instead, we started to make enough money to no longer be classified as poor, but still living paycheck to paycheck. I know what it means to be without food for days until the next paycheck hits, I know the stress that it caused my parents when they missed one day of work and because of that, we might…
I was fired on the 29th of April, Then “Hired” on the 13th of May but my official starting date is June 6th lol. I've been a temp for the past 3 years and during Covid I got to skip interviews while also starting right away. I'm just unfortunate when it's time to be directly hired I end up getting screwed over. I know my financial issues aren't the companies problem but damn having to wait nearly a month hit my wallet hard, I'm also banned from EDD for lying since I voluntarily quit and not fired. I was making $1400 a month at the time and EDD was paying $3400 a month.
So I’ve been in this subreddit just out of curiosity and I want to know, are you against all type of work or big chains like Walmart fast food etc. I’m asking this cause I had the though when I was working on a script and was like “do they hate all types of work?” Like are you against freelance or a small team working on something like a video game, internet series, etc? Please answer truthfully because I am super curious. (Also sorry if anything is worded weird it’s 2am and I can’t sleep)
Seriously, I don't see why all the kitchen doesn't just walk out. I'd specify, but really I could say this about 90% of kitchen staff I've met. It's hot, stressful, underappreciated, and just not worth it.

So, I'm living in the Netherlands, and recently I booked a flight to the US with American Airlines. I bought it via a Dutch website, but now that the flight is coming closer, AA is sending me e-mails, and dear god. “Go to the American Airlines app to streamline your airport experience” – airport experience? It's a frickin airport, not a theme park. A place where you wait in lines, go through annoying security checks and if you're hungry you're forced to buy overpriced food (well, now that I'm typing it it actually sounds surprisingly similar to a theme park, but whatever). And then when you go to the app, you need to register, which they pitch with “turn flights and everyday purchases into lifetime memories”. What type of late-capitalist dystopian propaganda is this? *Over the top American accent* “Ohmygaaaawd typing in my credit card number when I bought an…
