I work for a home warranty company in which it is pretty small but the team I am in literally carries the company. Authorizing claims, dealing with escalations, part orders, calling homeowners to tell them what the coverage offers ect. The past year has been a train wreck our team went from 20 people to 5 working employees -7 if you include the leads. Throughout that time we have picked up loads of delayed claims , escalations , calls , you name it. I got a good raise my first year a 6 percent which is unheard of. My second year I literally did more than my whole team got so many shoutouts ( btw no bonuses here but we get gift cards one a year if we drive to the training office 45 minutes away) and all I got was a 60 cent raise bringing my hourly to 21.93…

My wife was let go from her employer yesterday, one week before having to leave on a week-long annual military training for the Navy Reserve. We live in Texas. She had been working for this company for 9 months as a project manager and had just finished clearing their backlog of installs (they do solar). She told me they pulled her into a meeting and told her that she was not a good fit for the company, and the fact that she had to leave on annual military training “throws a wrench in this whole thing”. They offered her $3,000 and wanted her to sign this long document a couple of things stood out to me, which made us hesitant. “Employee represents that she has not, and agrees to not, file any lawsuit or claim against the Company based on any events, whether known or unknown, occurring prior to the…

i don’t know if this is just me or not, but my work said that men cannot wear shorts. i work in a call center where we are not facing our clientele. women are allowed to skirts, dresses that expose their legs; but when i asked if i (22m) could wear a pair of really nice shorts, they said that would go against the dress code. note – i live in a state where it can get well above 90°f in the summertime and is males are still expected to wear PANTS. can someone please make this make sense to me? i view it as unfair tbh (yes, i know life is unfair) but why am i going to sweat my ass off and be uncomfortable if i am going to be working 10+ hours?
