If I have more personal time

AMA: I work for an Oil company in the US. I’m also frustrated about the state of the world and companies taking record profits while running lean staff and cutting some benefits/hours/pay while making 100%+ profit over forecast.

As the title suggests, I am frustrated with the way the lower class is getting absolutely rammed by the evolving economic and social events. My company and others in the industry are still running lean work forces and cutting expenses (usually at the detriment to employees). I know the pandemic hurt business, but the insane profit growth and increasing brake checks on expenses is unsustainable and irresponsible in my opinion. Ask me any questions you have on the oil and energy sector. Lots of misinformation out there right now, and I’d like to share what I know.

Today I was fired

“For my own good”. Because I am not happy enough at my job and they feel bad. Well fucking thanks. I have stage 3 heart failure. I was applying for a new mortgage and now I am going to lose it. Please tell me again how your doing this for my best. Because it is better for me. Today I cried for hours because I lost a job I loved while they told me it was my fault for not being happy enough and that the stress was to much for me. Even though I have never said those words.

Under free and democratic conditions, millions of American workers would probably join a union tomorrow. Thanks to laws heavily slanted toward bosses, unionization votes resemble the sham elections of tin-pot dictatorships.

Fiancé fired for reporting bed bugs!

So last night my fiancé came home from a bar shift, wakes me up to tell me one of the regulars(who lives above the bar in a multi unit apartment building) had several bed bugs crawling on them in the bar. She kicked him out and informed the owner of bar and apartments via note of bed bug infestation. Fast forward to the next morning she works opening shift right after closing the night before. Notices owner had taken the note down and doesn’t say a thing to her until she approached asking if he saw the note. She was informed that he had another tenant taking care of bed bug problem (spraying store bought spray) tenant later came down during her shift and informed owner that the bug spray wasn’t enough and the infestation was pretty bad. The whole shift several other regulars informed her that this bed bug…
