So I recently got hired into a transportation company. We haul almost everything. Now the problem is that they don't trust/train me. I came forward about having adhd which I didn't need to do so since it only affects me when I have to concentrate one something difficult. Which I can easily do when I wear some noise cancel headphones. But the work isn't difficult or challenging me. I've mentioned it every single week but to no help. I have about 1,5 effective workhours and it mostly consists of checking our planners work. I noticed that they send dangerous goods by boat quite a lot. Without the proper authorisation and approval of the ferry. They will simply hide the dangerous goods between other pallets. So when they do a small check they can't see it.

A company I work for in the field of… customer service in apparel…announced yesterday that all PTO requests would be denied, and missing 3 days of work through January would result in termination. I have 70 hours of PTO accrued and can only roll over 40. So I can't use my PTO without being fired. There's a clause in the handbook about “the company reserves the right to change all benefits and plans at any time.” Me and my whole team feel absolutely screwed. Is this even legal? Feels like upper management is squeezing us dry, since they fired a ton of people and now their work is falling on us. Hence the no PTO.
