So this is just a rant about hating my job honestly, because I just got off late and have to go into my second job I'm an adult woman still living with my parents and siblings ( who isn't these days at 21?) I've been helping with bills since I got my first full time job at 18. I worked overnights at a gas station for an entire year and it was miserable. My boss was an asshole who couldn't keep employees and I was always covering shifts and tasks that other employees wouldn't do. I eventually quit this job because I was so overworked and tired I wanted to lay on the train tracks next to the building. During the time I worked at the gas station, I started doing side gigs as a housekeeper. It was way different than any job I've had before it. I decided my…

I live in a 1 party consent state to be clear up front. I am going to send an email to both DM and GM as a way to get this in writing I know how to handle this situation even in an employer friendly state that is IN. So to begin I work at a restaurant, a peice of equipment that I work with every time has been left on all night multiple times and this is a dangerous thing leaving the kettles on overnight leads to multiple different problems. Every time this happens I say something and it's fine for a while. I understand accidents happens people are forgetful I understand all that but I've been trying to tell them multiple times and it still happens more than it even should. Eventually it stops working and I'm down a kettle. Pissed off as can be not happy and…

I’ve been working at this company for a few months and it’s been really stressing me out. I’m a fresh grad and most of my coworkers are over 30. I feel like no one respects me at all. For example, our desks can be raised, and one morning I was working while standing and then my boss asked me why I’m standing up. I told him it’s good for the brain in the morning but he said just sit down it’s better for you, I’m just looking after you. Another day I was writing a report and a coworker asked me if I had ever written a report before and that it’s terrible. I had just started writing professional reports a few days prior. When I told them this, they said if I didn’t learn anything in college. The report itself wasn’t bad, it’s just that some sentences need to…

That’s not to say they don’t carry any of the blame because believe me, they didn’t have all their eggs in the right basket too. But man. You wanna talk about miscommunication, disorganization, laziness. FedEx, Amazon, Mastec; all these big corps are having hiring agencies and job recruiters to do all their dirty work for them to the point where you have way too many hands in the pot to get anything properly done. Taking a drug or a background screen isn’t exactly rocket science (I know it’s a little bit of science) but you don’t need to conjure 5 different heads to carry out a hiring process. They simply don’t give a shit enough because it will cost them money that they have. And that’s incredibly disheartening to middle class people trying to learn and become better work people without having to spend 10’s of thousands of dollars they…
