I’m 22 years old, working to pay off my husband and I’s student loans and my husbands car. I put in my request today. I didn’t have enough PTO because they refused to let me work from home when I was sick in January. I work as a social worker for children. Two of our team members are leaving in the next 3 weeks, so I, and my other coworkers, will have at least 20 clients on our case load. They want us to see them 2-3 times a week (not possible). If I leave my clients will be neglected and my all ready overworked coworkers will be wrecked. So I told them they can either let me appeal, work virtually when I am at the meet, or I’ll put in my two weeks notice. It sucks because I love my job, but I’m going to pick trying to race…

Manager: Hey, so there's been a problem with the pay software, so we can't pay you this fortnight, but don't worry! You'll be paid in full next pay period. Me: Oh. That's too bad. I guess you'd better take me off the roster for the next two weeks, then. Manager: What? But I need you to drive! You can't take 2 weeks off on a day's notice! Me: There's literally enough fuel in my car to get home tonight and back into work in the morning. What do you suggest I do? Manager: Well why don't you budget better? Me: …um… I budget fine, but you know how budgets work, right? You balance money coming in with money going out. If there's no money coming in, there can't be money going out. Manager: Well what about your savings? Me: My savings? After COVID? After the floods that meant we didn't…

Basically the title. They have me on for 7 days in a row, one day is 7 hours but the rest are 8. Also, majority night shifts. I'm in NY is this legal?

Hey everyone, Just like most people most of my life consisted of waking up before the sun rose and going to work and watching the sunrise from my office window. Then it all clicked that I'm miserable. Everyone around me being my co workers, friends, hell even my bosses would come to for their party favors so I gladly took the role. I quit my luxurious tech job to go back to the dark arts of slanging. Just for a heads up I've made quite a sum off bitcoin and ripple. So money isn't really a worthy. Does this count as anti work? Anyways bye everyone

I don't know which is more disturbing: Being jobless or antiwork with a minimum wage job history OR “Downgrading” from office, trade, specialized/expert/professional to a minimum wage job “for a change”. If that makes sense, talk about it.
