Month: October 2022

Ok, so I know this is probably a dumb question to ask, but I’m just nervous because I’ve never done this before. So I’ve been working at a retailer for the past 2 months and my parents are finally closing on a house that’s far from this store. I don’t want to commute 1 hour for a $15 per hour job, so Im most likely going to be putting in my 2 weeks. My questions are: 1) is there a time to do this? Like beginning of a shift or end of shift? 2) should I write a resignation letter, or is that overkill for a retail job position? 3) do I have any leverage asking for a transfer to another store close by if I’ve only worked there for 2 months? (I guess if they fire me that would automatically be out the window)

I FINALLY get to post here about some work bullshit and I’m hype lol My wife doesn’t understand it but it’s ok. So, I recently changed jobs for better pay and to get away from miserable manual labor. Prior to putting in my 2 weeks notice the wife and I discussed using my annual/sick leave to take off those 2 weeks because I was sick of the job and the people and didn’t want to return. My schedule at that job was mon-thurs, 6-4:30. 40 hour weeks. I had 79.25 hours of leave banked with one more pay period of accrual that would have put me around 84. I spoke to my supervisor about using the leave for my 2 weeks, he checked it and saw that I had enough to cover the 2 weeks and OK’d it. 4 days ago I got a letter in the mail saying an…

Lebron James currently makes over $100 million a year. Lets say someone starts a business from scratch and now can sell it for a $100 million profit. Do both of them deserve it? Neither? Only one? And why?

I got hired at my first corporate job a month ago, and now I already want to quit. I've never been more miserable before in my life. It's about $20 an hour, which is more than I've ever made before. But I simply just cant do it, and I don't even care about the money. It's making my depression 10x worse, and my anxiety is unbearable. So how would I go about quitting? I don't even care if I don't have another job lined up. I live with my parents so I can afford to quit without having something line up. I just want to fucking leave. Should I just quit without notice? Or should I email them? I definitely wont be working another two weeks of this miserable fucking job.
