Is this normal? I wouldn’t question it if they just said “you have to pay for your own certifications,” but they’ve managed to make me feel like this is some weird scam to get a measly 25$

Hotel I work at wants to garnish out wages…

They want to garnish our wages if we don't get $100 additional approval on a credit card and the damage is greater than $100. A. The system isn't configured to get an additional approval over room and tax. B. The GM keeps telling desk clerks to charge the card on the room if they charge something from the sweet shop. This settles the approval and drops it. Then if you catch it, you have to reauthorize. Do it enough and the bank won't let you authorize the card again. C. It's illegal to garnish wages in the state of North Carolina. ​ I signed the paper with the notes for A and C. and told my AGM about it. He said he had nothing to do with the paper.

Just had my first HireVue interview, and good god, it’s awful

An interview is supposed to be about a dialogue, about building rapport. What's more, it seems to only be targeting service industry level focus. Another layer of dehumanization on an already dehumanized class. what an absolutely reprehensible product.

Burnt out, sad, lonely and no motivation to continue working but money

I just need to vent. I’m going to preface this post by saying that I’m currently in a long distance relationship, looking to close the distance in about a year (k1 visa timeline changes all the time so we don’t really know) and while it’s the happiest relationship I’ve been in, it’s also the most emotional one and I often feel sad that we are far apart. I work as a recruiter, I honestly dislike it, but I studied two bachelor’s degrees that I ended up hating and it was easy to get a job in HR. It’s also a huge International company with amazing benefits and great pay and they offer more vacations than the national standard. I also work 100% remotely. Ngl I’m pretty comfortable, or I was until I got promoted over half a year ago. I love my team, they’re amazing people and we often set…

Walked out of my shit job today and couldn’t be any happier

I packed my things and handed in my key fob during lunch break after having a shit morning. When I handed my manager my key fob she goes “uhhh what is this?” I told her “you know what it is, stick it up your ass and around the corner” UGH IT WAS SO LIBERATING!!!! I feel free, I don’t feel anxious I just feel like myself. The same self I lost to being loyal to a shit job that could give two fucks about me.
