My employer is blatantly violating the terms of our contract. What do I do?

My employer is blatantly violating the terms of our contract. I'd like to just tell her “no I'm not doing that and am not obligated to do so” but the problem is the contract says she can terminate it at any time without cause. And if the contract isn't fulfilled that I won't be paid for a large amount of days I thought I'd be paid for. Is it even legal for her to unilaterally terminate a contract?

Manager put out schedule up at 5 am

So I have had issues with this company before, and lately it seems like my manager has been picking favorites to tell everything and try to catch attitude with and confuse the rest of us. Telling us we should focus on one task but complain when we're not multitasking. She'll tell us to stay at one spot and then tell us to go to another so I'm pretty fired up. Then yesterday she didn't post a schedulle I was up all night having panic attacks and finally fell asleep around 3 am. Then around 4/5 AM she finally puts up the schedule claiming she forgot to. I haven't opened any messages yet. I just don't even know what to say or do.

What is a job that seems like only an experienced expert can do, but actually, with a day of training, anyone could do it?

Stop being a pushover

I've read far too many posts where employers are shorting paychecks, overtime, requiring too much information, changing vacation last minute, and the list goes on. They do not have the upper hand. They make it sound like they do. They have all these rules you must abide by. But the fact of the matter is that you have the upper hand. They need you. Be firm with your personal boundaries. Your sick day is not an option and you don't have to tell them why you're sick. Don't accept working without proper pay. YOU DO NOT NEED TO GIVE THEM A TWO WEEK NOTICE!

Tea on Amway and World Wide Group?

Won’t go into specifics as I am unsure if the people I am talking to use Reddit but got a pretty interesting pitch on selling Amway products and WWG helping one with said selling. Definitely give Pyramid scheme red flags but I have been wrong on that front before, both ways. Of course just Googling gives you a bias on what you type but too generic and you don’t get the info you want. I trust the community here on job related information. So what’s the tea?

How am I meant to maintain my health working multiple jobs?

Serious question, I feel like I barely have enough time to rest let alone maintain my health (exercise, eat properly) working multiple jobs. I'm currently at the worst my health has ever been and I at least would appreciate some advice regarding that…

I flaked on work today

I am the first one to go into the building everyday at my job along with one of the bosses. They have a key and I don't so if I show up and none of them show up I am stuck outside. This happened once when I was new and it was 3 of us supposed to show up first. My other coworker got ahold of someone else who came in on short notice and let us in Recently I've noticed that the boss that was scheduled that day is pretty consistently 10-15 minutes late and it pisses me off a bit. One time she was over 30 minutes late. Today I sat outside for over an hour and then just left. I got a call from my job about 2 hours after that but I didn't pick up because I was busy sleeping in ️ I normally wouldn't do…

anyone here feel like working isn’t worth it?

For example if you would have told me 10 years ago I could make 20 or an hour delivering for doordash, I would have been like, cool sweet career. But here in California $20 an hour is like, just a little bit above minimum wage. Literally most likely you're not really going to be taking home much after the insane cost of food, gas and other living expenses. . I live with my parents and don't pay rent. Working just seems not worth it. I'm working on a small business but in the meantime a menial job is basically just going to waste time cuz it's all just going to go into expenses anyway.
