Does anybody have stories about coworkers who got instant karma for treating you like trash?

This country was founded on the fact that we didn't want to pay a 2% tax to some English oligarch that gets rich off labor of others. How is that different than what's happening now with the elites taxing us to oblivion while they live off our labor? What is stopping us? Russians and French were able to pull up and change their country for the better. If any change ever happens now its from Americans themselves as we are the most armed country on the planet. Further the entire planet looks up to us we are a prime examples for change whether it be good or bad. It's time we get off our asses and form local groups in real life and seek out other discouraged rent a slaves who want to make a difference. Whining and complaining isnt gonna change anything. Seek out a group in your local…

I know someone who just went through five interviews. I personally would of been over it by three or four, especially given at the FOURTH interview they stated “this is more a formality” and then scheduled another interview. When do you personally call it quits?

This is a short rant. I work around 35-40hrs per week over the course of 4 days. The boss wants to give us maximum 4 days per week because of the long hours. On Sunday I saw that my colleagues the next day were understaffed so I offered myself to work, to my manager, if she said yes as I wanted to help my colleagues the following day. At first she said no but then changed her mind and said yes. So okay I come to work the next day, stayed for half the day because the afternoon wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. In comes the next day and I get a call from the Boss. He says he never agreed to me working that extra half day. I told him our manager agreed to me working that day, even after I explained to her about…

I have a job that’s just fine. Gives me the security I need, fairly flexible hours, and none of the work is awful. That being said my boss has continually promised me job promotion (and raises) over the last two years but instead has given me more work under the guise of “training” to the point that I’m doing the work of at least two people. Most recently I was promised that my job and another coworker’s (who just left the company and I absorbed their duties) would be redistributed so I’d get all of the stuff I like and the new hire would get the boring stuff. Today I was told that’s not happening anymore and I’d essentially keep doing all of the original extra work (not the new extra work) but now with no hope of promotion. Should I stay and see how things pan out? Should I…

I made my company more than 47,000$ in less than 24 hrs. That’s more than I get paid in a year. Not even a thank from the boss.

Title. I'm just in a real mood right now because I have put in a dozen applications to various jobs I absolutely am qualified for, but I have either been rejected, ghosted, or outright ignored on all of them. I don't know why. I can guess, at least 2 of the jobs that ghosted me did so after asking me my desired salary, to which I stated their top end offer (both were $20 an hour, both manager positions at retail stores) based on needing a living wage and my 10 years experience. One of them tried to haggle me down to $14 an hour before ghosting me. The others I don't know. I've come to the conclusion that there needs to be a government database hat all businesses are required to submit employment data to, every time someone applies for a job the company should be required to list…
