Thats barely a year away. I worked at a Walmart distribution center before it sucked they paid decent but it was hard work. Recently I saw an urgently hiring and they offered 28 an hour and 4 day weeks. I went and applied was even offered the job until they basically said you're fired after a year. This is going to cripple the community I live in 40 percent of people in my town work there and all the small towns around us people come in to work there. What are all these people going to do. I read after that alot of Walmart dcs are already completely robot run this is horrifying I think ill keep the shitty underpaid job where I'm at right now.

The class warfare is heating up. The oligarchy doesn't take kindly to those who expose their exploitation.
What do we do? I'm not protected if I have to limit my workload due to injury – I do not have FMLA and it's not obtainable until you have worked with an establishment for at least a year. Anyone can get fired for looking ugly. There's nothing protecting us. What do we do? Do I go to work and risk injuring myself further? I'm in legit pain, every day. I do what I can, but I have to limit myself with basic household tasks. We're draining our two savings accounts. We had $2,700 and now the total is down to $400. We're married, she's working part time, we can pay off my debt minimum payment at a time. I know I fucked up with debt, but I seriously can't get out of it. I've worked every single year, even during COVID. I eventually was laid off and took the…

Putting my foot down.
My company is publicly listed 40B marketcap. Overall its a good company to work for. Pay is decent and benefits are decent too. My management team always tries to help employees. Today i received an email from my manager asking to let my team know about donation vacation hours for those who are not able to work after having personal problems. I completely disagree. I have heard upper management say before that we ” are a billion fucking dollar company”. Well i wont be asking my team to donate their vacation since we are a billion dollar company.
I 26f thought I had everything figured out 3 years ago. I was working as a bridal consultant and I discovered a love for bridal. I love fashion and working with couture dresses was a dream. I got my first bridal stylist job in 2019, laid off cause of covid. Got another one in 2020 and didn’t like the shop because they priced the dresses depending on people’s budgets. We would give people 500 dollar discount for no reason to get a sale, or the opposite if someone comes in with a 3k budget and the dress is 1700 we might make it 2500. So I left and went to another store… this store was the same. So I went to another store.. and this one didn’t do that so I was very happy for the time being. They overpriced their dresses which I always rolled my eyes at but…

ADA violation?
I've had to leave work 5 or 6 times in the last 18 months mid shift for mental health reasons. Full on breakdowns in a sobbing pile of flesh on the ground and near unresponsive levels of inconsolable. The kind of meltdown where I'm completely useless even into the next day sometimes. I'm diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder, Severe Anxiety Disorder, and more than likely will be with C-PTSD soon enough. Will them threatening my job over this in writing be a violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act? I can't find solid information, and I'm looking for a new job, but I'm kinda wondering if I can't get them to calm the hell down.
It would be funny if not so sad. No one controls google lady. Especially if you choose new keywords and phrases to define programs that were never included on website. SEO is a dance and game, cannot be done in 24 hrs (unless you a G maybe)… marketing is no where on my job description and none of it fits my pay rate either. Leaving soon, 1 week, so happy!!!!
