You create or aggregate the content. We mods… moderate. For free. Any Reddit IPO should compensate the users and mods. Have had an account for over 15 years and have a top 1% subreddit. Why should these fucks make millions off our volunteer work, while we get nothing? I may get shit from the other mods on my subreddit but at the end of the day WE are who give this company any value and I will pul the plug. It's been a good run, but honestly I don't get any sense of power or self-worth from owning a top 1% sub and will pull the plug. Can you Digg it?

Joined a new team (internal move within the same department). They didn’t give me a contract right away. The job I am doing is much more demanding and requires a lot more skill than my previous role (product manager). I am frequently expected to work outside 9-5 because we work with global teams. I kept asking for a new title and salary to reflect my current position (they took no initiative, I kept having to follow up and push it along). It was 8 months until they gave me paperwork. The salary was much less than I expected (just a little more than I was on). The JD was missing key responsibilities of the role. Not just like “sometimes I get asked to go to the mailroom”. But product training and product testing – did not appear in the JD at all and I do testing every day (we are…

So it was evaluation time at the job I am currently at. Boss ask all the usual questions and I give run of the mill answers cause I know I won’t change anything. He ask if “I am happy?” In my head I am thinking WTF! I wasn’t to say yeah I would be happy to be back in bed, or if your long time toxic employees would do their job instead of berating everyone and saying how much they hate the place. These HR/management types and the time they have to ask such questions!

Hi all, Posting here seeking advice. I work for a Mom and Pop comic shop in MA, and they've been abusing my best coworker, who we'll call “Joe”. Joe has been working at the store for several years, starting as a cashier, and still only pulls MA minimum wage, despite having the functional responsibility of a manager. In addition, Joe puts in countless hours of overtime for the store well in excess of 40 hours, for which he does not recieve MA's 1.5x overtime rate. Joe loves the store and working there, and is so nonconfortarional that he refuses to ask for a raise, let alone fight for the overtime pay he has a right to. Is there anything I can do for him? Would it be possible to file a complaint to the labor board on his behalf, or take any other action?

I feel like I should report this to someone. We’ve hired several new people lately who’ve all said they were told they’d be making $18/hr. I checked the Indeed to make sure. We are supplemented income with tips, but it is absolutely nowhere near an extra $10/hr.

Why do I have to make an account for every single job I apply to? What kind of bullshit is that? Just let me send you my resume

Managers using company resources to keep other managers 'sweet' despite no business case is surely misappropriation of company resources? Why must they keep a particular low middle level manager 'sweet'? All they're doing is spending resources on managers who shout the loudest. Surely it must be about using resources to enhance shareholder value?
