Month: August 2023

I’ve been at this security job going on over 6 months now. Upon hiring my manager said at 90 days their would be a review and a raise. I’ve been the best employee I could by not calling off or being late and being on top of my post orders. For the the past several months I have verbally and via text message reminded both my immediate supervisor and manager about the review for the raise and they keep giving me the run around that they’ll look into it. Doesn’t help that they are both brothers and the owner of the company is their cousin. I work gy and with recent events they are adding more responsibility on us and still no word back about the raise and last time I messaged them about it they flat out just left me on read. At this point I just need a…

Just like the title says. My hours were cut because I bought a motorcycle. I work in fast food and my manager came in and asked who's motorcycle was out front because it hasn't moved, and I told them mine with a smile. The new schedules are out now and my hours have been drastically cut back. When I confronted the manager she told me that I “obviously don't need the hours based off of the purchases I make” I tried to explain to her that the only other vehicle I have is a car shared between me and my girlfriend and that this motorcycle is my transportation, and that I decided to go with a motorcycle because compared to a car it was cheap. She didn't want to hear it.. I mostly just wanted to come here to vent. I'm currently paying $200 a month on this bike and…

I am currently in the market for a new job, and have noticed that a lot of employers have the practice of asking for previous pay slips during the application/ interview process. In my mind, they only do this to see what your previous salary was in order to try and lowball you (because god forbid you changed jobs in order to greatly increase your earnings). Am I correct in this assumption, or is there another legitimate reason that an employer would need/ want previous payslips? I don't want to refuse this info in applications if there's a valid reason for the request, but if there isn't then I feel like it's within my right to refuse this request entirely.

The boss in the office is a complete idiot. Stupid! Dishonest! Uneducated! Lacks people and management skills! Disruptive! Ruins the company and department! But he/she is the boss! Have you ever seen an employee or group of employees take on this terrible boss and win? Maybe they submitted a grievance. Or went to senior management. Used a lawyer. Or went to Human Resources. Or started a whispering gossip campaign around the office to destroy the reputation of the terrible boss. Or did a sick out. How ever they did it– they won. The witch is dead. Fired, terminated and gone! Tell us the story!

I will just keep as short as possible because honestly I really don't think I can stomach another sleepless night questioning what I should do it what's going to happen basically it's like this. I'm an Army Vet came home from basic and got ran over by some older dude 48 surgeries and a whole lot of very greedy people later…. I get some sort of money around 500k well I wanted to do the RIGHT thing and have it set as a trust. Welp pretty much got so damn screwed by these ignorant ass lawyers after it's all said and done I get a house 200k. I buy a care around 41k I try to again do this correct stuff and get my disability an VA stuff sorted out but in a humble of living to far no ride lawyers just drop me or covid it's been everywhere. So.…

Warehouses Delivery Retail Food industry I’ve worked at two distribution centers TWO separate warehouses over the past 7 years and this is my first time actually looking at what jobs are available and damn this shit is awful.. Majority of warehouses aren’t really paying what the job I lost was paying. Then they have the stupidest hour requirements. Nobody’s trying to work no bullshit 12hr shifts, my last job was 4 days 10 hr shifts and that felt like torture.. I’ve got this feeling that I’m STUCK doing warehouse work, it’s really the only thing that pays as survivable wage with benefits. My gf tried telling me to explore other options and don’t feel like I’m stuck with that one option, but really what else is an option other then what I listed about..

Title. Basically asked to extend my leave of absence and employer said no despite me having my own health insurance that they contribute $0 to. Would have seriously cost them $0.00 and they still said no. Probably in their legal right but fuck you for making me spend weeks stressing about this. I even offered to fast track my medical testing too so I can just keep this job. Guess it’s on unemployment and back to mom’s basement for the rest of the year as I figure out how to bounce back emotionally and physically.

I'm so fed up with everything and everyone. My Boss doesn't realize how much I don't need his job as well as the clingers associated . Fuck them all ..
