My old boss drove me crazy. He used to micro-manage me and demand I did things like “Install QR codes!” I decided to deal with it creatively and made this song. I hope you like it.

finally found a job I liked, but..

I work at a mom and pop gas station in a Texas small town. I'm from the west coast. I've worked in production, hospitality, cleaning, and a couple big box stores. All of them sucked.

That's why we're in r/antiwork Well instead of working for 15/hr at those terrible jobs, now I'm down to 8/hr. The manager, Linda, makes 10. The guy who owns the store is well off.

Has this happened to anyone else? Does any one have any recommendations? I know I should probably get an attorney, but I'm poor! ​ crossposted to r/nursing

Looking for a job..

“no one wants to work” but looking for a new job and no one wants to hire. On top of that, the applications for these jobs want information on things that are irrelevant. Like, why do you need to know the address, down to the apartment numbers, of my references??? I don't even know the addresses of my previous coworkers or managers. That's weird! I don't go to their houses! Or they want to know the previous salary of my last 5 jobs? WHY??? That goes all the way back to the early 2010s when the minimum wage was like $7 less than it is now! This is just a bit of a rant from frustration due to job hunting and not getting any call backs or being rejected within a few hours of applying. Starting to look at janitor and housekeeping jobs because I started my working life in…

It’s almost as if they know they don’t pay enough.
