Sitting down in retail.

I truly don’t understand what the big deal is. Does it hurt you to see an employee sitting near the register IN AN EMPTY FCKNG STORE ON 4TH OF JULY? Who made customers into these gods that we have to stand up for when they walk through the door?

C’est la vie

I graduated college when I was 26. Got married and was promoted to a career position at work that same year. We had our daughter the summer of the following year. After her birth, my ex, and I couldn’t fathom her going back to work so she became a full-time mother. I can’t tell you how happy I was. All my hard work paid off. I had a job that I could support an entire family on. Bought a home the year my daughter was born and two years after that, a new and bigger home in a nicer neighborhood, where my son was born. Fast forward to when I find out that my wife has been cheating on me with a handful of guys the entire relationship. Divorced. Child support. Alimony. Half of retirement gone. I had just gotten a new riding lawnmower!! Yes, the kids are mine; actually,…

Suppose there was a super rare virus called billionaire-itis.

“inflation bonus”

At the end of last year we all got a letter at work stating that we would get 1000€ each, as bonus because of inflation. I think 2 people got the full 1000€..cause they calculated your sick days into the thing I got 150€ At the beginning of the year they had this big speach about how “if you're under 5% sick leave quota, you get 1000€ at the end of june” They calculated everything into that quota. Work accidents, sick kids, the bos being sick himself? Yep. even the long term sickness guys were calculated in. At max 3 people each week could be sick without a problem.. Well we have 2 guys who didn't show up since September. And you stop paying for them after 6 weeks of sick leave, insurance takes care of em at that point. They're not even paying for them, but their contribution to…

New job hired me due to needing people.

My new job hired me because they claimed to desperately need people, to the point of also advertising willing to hire 15 year olds. I’m 20, and now i’m on my second week with zero hours scheduled. What the fuck happened to the “We really need people” claim? The issue is I now likely can’t get any other benefits since I’m “employed” but just not given hours. And on top of that, I only make 11 an hour as is. How the hell is one supposed to pay rent when they have zero hours?? Anyone else have this experience?
