I cannot for the life of me figure out why they thought this was okay to use as a marketing strategy.

She asked for help multiple times to UPS. She was terminated and she jumped to her death. UPS didn't even stop production when it happened, they just handed out pamphlets about mental health without informing their employees that a tragedy just occurred on site. Another vile company.https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2022/10/15/upss-o15.html

Making less than minimum wage covering a HS teacher’s paternity leave. 5 classes a day M-F. Not coming back after the teacher returns.

And they wonder why they are desperate for substitutes and can never find coverage. The students in this town have a lot of behavioral problems, it is pretty low income, and it is taking so much out of me. I have 2 8th grade classes, 1 senior class, and 3 classes of mixed high school years. I am only here for a 3 week coverage but I’ve gotten to know each student individually and I’ve gotten the classes to progess so much while the teacher is out and ensured that they come back to order. I just submitted my PhD so I am in a limbo period looking for work and I thought subbing would be a good option for the time being. I would make double babysitting my neighbor’s toddler.
