Month: April 2023

Pretty much in the title but a few other pieces of info. This isn’t the first time it has happened due to a payroll clerical error. Company HQ located in Philadelphia but I work in an office located in South Dakota. They have fucked up my bonus practically every time and I’m sick of them skating by without consequence. Someone needs to be held accountable.

I got my best friend at work suspended for two weeks. My bosses told me to take photos of the event I was working at and I took a photo of my coworker/work BFF flipping me off. I showed my bosses the photo (no, I wasn’t thinking AT ALL) while laughing, after having taken it. They then had a meeting with her where they suspended her for two weeks, unpaid. I feel AWFUL and all I can do is hope my coworker forgives me. I would never do anything to maliciously get anyone in trouble, I simply just wasn’t thinking. My bosses often cross the boundary into more of a friend-territory and this event reminded me that they are NEVER your friend, no matter how inappropriate they themselves behave. I just feel so sick over this.

Just got the call from HR that they want to have a sit-down with me on Monday. I work as a gov contractor in DC and this latest job has been a poor fit from when I started back in January. There was an issue at every step of the onboarding process, company didn’t have a general admin code to charge so I barely got paid my first few weeks (salaried employee), and my coworker is an uptight jerk that will throw you under the bus in front of the client/management. I’m probably not blameless, I have ADHD and bureaucratic office work is particularly tough for me, especially with very little oversight/guidance (unless I fuck up). I just began taking medication and have noticed a difference; too little too late I guess. If it does happen on Monday, it’ll be the first time I’ve ever gotten fired and to be…

I have had two incidents were my manager has taken away up to 2 hours off my check. Both times I've had to catch it. No questions no nothing just taken away. Do I have any ground to stand on with the labor board?

Not sure if this is legal or not (PA), my wife works for a pretty established wood working company that mainly makes tabletop tables and chairs. Anyways she was picking me up from my job today (my car is in the shop) and she was telling me that work was slow and they gave her the option to leave work early but if chose to do so they would be taking that hour or hours out of her sick time. I'm not an expert but I'm not entirely sure if that legal, can anyone help me see if they're allowed to do that?

And made up HR complaints and fined me 20% of my income for refusing to do something illegal. What kind of lawyers do I need?

A few years ago, I was cycling to work and I came off my bike and fell in the road. Got to work and my supervisor asked if I was OK, as I had “come off my bike” I asked her how she knew…. One of the directors (the guy who had actually hired me), had driven past and seen the whole thing, and told her…… But did not even slow down to make sure I was OK. They would watch you die in the road and not give a crap. Make sure you do as little as possible at work and take any paid sick time off you can.

​ I don't work at Addison. This was sent everywhere, including Restaurants
