I have a college degree, my job pays 30k a year, 60% of my monthly paycheck goes to rent, should I just take a week off and fly to Hawaii to jump in the nearest volcano? Lmk.

It’s been months and still haven’t gotten my W-2

I work for an industrial company that contracts in the refineries. I messaged my head project manager who’s in charge of the region and told him ”hey boss, I haven’t received my W-2 who do I go to so I can receive it?” Just left on read. I went to the shop to gather material for another job site and while I was there he avoided contact with me. However he spoke with someone else standing next to me. It’s been months now and it’s frustrating that I haven’t gotten it yet, what can I do? I’m seriously trying to leave this job but it sucks because they have me caught by the balls with really good pay. Just long hours

Why is it always one person in a store that makes everyone’s life hell yet nothing ever happens to them but get promoted.

I no longer will let myself be abused…three strikes I'm gone. Did we not learn in COVID?! How did shit get even worse….

The trends

I have observed a recurring theme on this sub. Trend 1. Employee: I would like to quit. Consider this my 2 weeks’ notice. Boss: Don’t bother, you are fired effective immediately. Trend 2. Employee: I quit immediately. Not coming to work from tomorrow. Boss: Shame on you, I expected a two weeks’ notice.

When they offer tuition reimbursement but don’t work around classes.

I’ve worked at my Job for a full year in healthcare, they promise full tuition reimbursement, I am due to start classes in May, my supervisor just told me that I cannot lower my FTE as it was promised because they need people on weekdays, I can’t handle waking up for work at 4:25AM, getting ready, driving 45 minutes, starting at 6:00 working 8.5 hours, getting off at 2:30 to then have classes start 2 hours later without enough time to drive home between, where I will then be there until 8:30, then drive home and get there at 9:15, to then have to take care of everything, not be in bed until 10:30 at least, and then go to bed to wake up at 4:25 and repeat. If I quit I lose the tuition reimbursement, if I withdraw I’ve already lost all the out of pocket expenses I’ve paid,…

I got fired and rehired lol

I was fired from a job I hated and I said on my last day “I give it a month” and to their credit I was called two months later at which time I was already working another job. I came back for the money in a part time capacity with a pay raise and promptly fired myself after 8 months xD For clarification I worked for an training organisation in a necessary role, I was the guy that did the data entry that would get everybody paid and the archivist. The person they hired to replace me was 3 times slower then me, I timed it, and I made people aware of this but hey you can lead a horse to water right
