I have had multiple interviews for positions where I have been told I will be contacted for a second (or third) interview only to be completely ghosted. I expect it from some places and I can take rejection just fine but it’s been like 6 jobs in a row. I am so over this crap. Rant over. Thanks for reading.
If you care to read the original post: https://www.reddit.com/r/antiwork/comments/15ezvmz/88_year_old_employee_harasses_me/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=2&utm_term=1 Armed with a lot of great advice and support I tried some of the suggestions from my previous post this morning. I saw 88 coming and didn’t acknowledge her like I normally do. I just kept working on my pc. She said, “Slow day?” Without looking at her I replied, “No ma’am, very busy in fact. How may I help you?” She stood there without saying anything and I just kept working. After several seconds I said without ever looking at her, “If you don’t need anything then I need to finish what I’m working on.” She hrumphed and walked off mumbling. About an hour later I saw her headed my way again. I was in between tasks so I jumped up and started toward the restroom. She asked me, in a snarky way, where I was headed. I said restroom…
Like legit, the system now is so broken with employers trying to fuck workers on basic human rights. Might aswell burn the system down right?
My manager asked our team if anyone was willing to go on rotation, basically a contracted amount of time to do another job in the company, and I said I would be interested. I went on vacation with the impression that my new contract would be available when I returned. When I returned, I was told the promotion was no longer available but I was still expected to take the job. When I asked what would happen if I reject the role, she said it was fine, but that that work would still be coming to me regardless of my decision. There has been no contract given to me even to discuss the length of assignment, my new manager, days I need to be in office, etc. My (old) manager now wants to have a mid-year review and the comments left are all about this new ‘role’ that I’m not…
Not a single one of these gig/service jobs is sustainable. Pure greed.
I have a company vehicle. Manager says the first 30 min of travel for the day and the last 30min of travel we are not to clock in and be paid for. If anything happens while in the vehicle I'm responsible. Is this right? Legal?
This has been years ago. Like late 1980's or early 1990's. But I see all kinds of stories on here of shitty jobs and just have to tell mine. I worked in a 24 hour grocery store and was the cheese shop manager which was part of the deli. It was a part time position that could of lead to a full time job. (Now I would fill in all over the store. I think I helped in every department and even the office when they were short handed.) Anyways, each department was only allowed a certain number of full time employees. So being part time I knew I wouldn't be full time unless someone quit or died. Anyways I noticed I was being scheduled 40 hours a week for 19 weeks and scheduled 10 hours the 20th week and then back to 40 hours a week for the next…
I know this is anti work. However, does anyone know of any companies specifically located in the PA or upper north region that are work from home and don’t require you be on the phone just data entry? I’ve been trying for MONTHS to get a job like this to no avail, but I may be looking in the wrong places? Not too sure. I’ve worked a few work from home jobs that require you talk on the phone for basically 8 hours straight and i absolutely hate it.. but those seem to be the only ones that are hiring at least from where I’m looking. Someone PLEASE offer suggestions. I just wanna type, listen to music and block the whole world out.
I applied to be a cashier full time at this store about 10 minutes from where I live and i got the call back for an interview, now I was under the full assumption that the interview would be held at the place I was applying to work at like every single job I’ve ever applied for. But as they are giving out the information they give me an address and I didn’t think much about it (there’s several of these stores in the town I live in so not uncommon to get the address) till I looked it up and it’s almost 3 hours away in the capital of my state to the division branch. I called them back and asked if they gave me the wrong address because it’s unreasonable to expect someone to travel 3 hours one way (6 hours total) with not even 2 days notice…
