What the fuck do I do? How do I make it through this? I got my schedule for next week today and realized that I’m day 3 of 12. I’m so drained. I don’t know what to do.

Not sure if this is okay to post here but I’m trying to leave my job without them knowing I’m trying to leave, but the only thing is the new ones I’m interviewing for are asking for references so of course I’m putting some past employers but the ones I put down haven’t been getting back to the hiring managers. Does anyone know how I can get around this or should I just bite the bullet and tell my employers I’m looking elsewhere? I can’t be here much longer, it’s going to end up killing me.

Just drove 40 minutes out of the way for an interview Indeed said was already lined up only to show up and told to reapply through company website where they ask stupid questions with no answers denied an interview because apparently just the dumb questions they ask reflect how my entire work performance would go an interview is no where near a guarantee you work there anyway waste of my fucking time

We have a “team bonding” thing after work today that is somehow mandatory but unpaid. My coworkers are nice people. I'm just not interested in friends or bonding. I just want to coexist and not make each other's days any harder than they need to be. More importantly, I just wanna go home.

It drives me insane. She announces everything she does, talks herself all day LOUDLY, shouts to people across the building (not meanly, just to communicate), floats around talking to different people like it's a party, interrupts my work because she 'just remembered something' (which totally could have waited), she even interrupts me and others who are trying to eat lunch…her behavior drives me insane. And every day she's like “where has the day gone? I got nothing done!” and in my head I'm like seriously? You talked and shouted and walked from person to person socializing and interrupting people…? She also dumps her things in my office (to 'clear her desk off') but when I try to do/suggest doing something better with it, she's like “no, just leave it there for now…” and this happens every time I try to deal with the clutter she dumps on me until I…

I just started a job as a scheduler for a company that sets up drugs tests for new employees. After 7 days of training my boss says I should be independent already and I’m learning too slow. I really thought I was succeeding, I would ask questions, always show up on time- if not early. The HR offered me to come back, I think so I can’t file for unemployment. They kind of bullied me into quitting, where I just didn’t feel welcomed. I asked if I was getting let go and my boss just looked over at the Hr. And she said I guess you could come. Ofc I just quit. If I would have came back I would have felt self conscious about every question I would have asked. It’s such a set back after you thought you landed a decent job.

Put my two week notice in at my job. That has been cutting my pay in half, every solution I tried with my manger did nothing but make things worse. The whole daytime office folk seem to have a personal vendetta against seem solely base of the fact that I don’t talk to them. I finally found the job I want and put my two week notice In, on last week at the job, Im completed ghosted and not being scheduled to come into work. Turns out many drivers( I’m a trucker) have had the same experience with the office only favoring certain drivers and giving the drivers they don’t like the bottom barrels loads. Took this issue up to corporate and got fired for no call no show even tho I wasn’t scheduled…

In reality if you asked any human walking down the road this one question “Would you sacrifice your own personal happiness for money?” 99.9% would say no. However, this is what Americans do every single day. Let that sink in. We are all faking it to make it. We are all trying to keep up appearances. We are all trying to buy things we do not need.

I got a job at a busy brewpub as Head Brewer. Let's say it was on the East Coast. There was a younger lad who had been the assistant and was filling in as the previous Head Brewer had quit. Now this lad (we will call him AB) was a bit perturbed at me getting the job. He was convinced that he should have been a shoe in. Unfortunately, the place was a shambles – no record keeping, the place was filthy, the barrel aged beers were awful, and none of the beers being made were to spec (wrong abv, carbonation level, color, etc) – so it is understandable that AB did not get the job. From the start AB made things awkward, refusing to follow basic instructions or change his work practices, wandering off when he was supposed to working, etc. The front of house staff were also giving…
