Month: July 2023

EDIT: “delta” in the title was supposed to say Depts ** Basically I got a new role in a new dept with the same company and due to his lack of planning and preparation he’s making me stay to “accommodate business needs” for another month. We have another person who does what I do but he calls out at least once a week, yet makes more than I do and gets more praise than I do. I’m tired of it and that’s why I’m leaving the dept, as well as my manager not knowing how to be a true leader (he talks badly about other techs, he dug into me about calling out 3 times since the beginning of this yr, and he calls me freaking out over stuff that isn’t happening until the next week). Basically, I just wanna know how to make this man’s life harder or if…

I apologize if this is the wrong place to ask but I work in medical imaging in California and am new to the state. My department is low on staff and has nobody to work night shift and I was wondering if there was a state law against using on call shifts to fill these gaps in positions? Thank you!

Like I'm already annoyed at jobs for paying shit, and making you wait or rescheduling you when they asked you to come to an interview at said time but now it been getting “interviews “ which just make me redo my application on paper after I did it online and the waiting for the interview like I came for an interview, I didn't just waist bus money and walked a 7 minute walk in 3 minutes to get to the interview on time to wait for an interview them giving me a paper application doing it going up to them and waiting somemore and still get rejected like wtf(this rant came kit bcs of a current situation but I am still mad at the paper application when you are supposed to be doing an interview )

I saw on my schedule I was working 44.5 hours next week. It sucked but at least I was gonna get some overtime pay (or so I thought). I ask my boss to double check we do and it turns out that time and a half isn't a thing with the employees here. I did a little digging into my state labor laws (Michigan) and found out that non exempt workers have to get paid 1.5x your normal pay if you work more than 40 hours. I can't do anything about it right now as I haven't gotten paid for that week but I do plan on reporting it to the department of labor if what my boss said was true.

My wife works at a cosmetology school that got bought out by a larger company last year. Her position and responsibilities have changed and evolved since then as the local college is now under a larger corporate umbrella. Recently, she was sent a “Change of Status Offer Letter – Position” which formerly outlined her new responsibilities and roles within the school. The letter also reported her hourly rate as being higher than it is now. Great! An overdue and well deserved raise! She initialed and signed the letter. Now her boss (bosses boss?) is trying to say it was an error and her wages were mistakenly reported incorrectly. They gave her a new letter, she refused to sign. They are still paying her the previous rate as of her last paycheck. What can she do? Does she have a leg to stand on? Where can we get practical assistance? The…

Started a new job a month ago and the first two weeks were average hours without proper training. Manager hardly checks up on me asking if I’ve done this or that and gives a bad attitude when I say no when I just started and no prior knowledge. Eventually, my hours were completely reduced to zero, giving hours to other coworkers with a schedule 2 weeks ahead of time. Another manager was talking on the phone saying a racist comment about me and how I piss her off when it’s just my 2nd week. I consulted my manager about the hours, and it’s due to being unproductive. This ticked me off because I haul ass across the entire store and the camera proves it. Now, without proper training, an attitude-like manager with unrealistic expectations, disrespect, and unfair treatment, what can I go about this? Obviously quitting would be the best…
