Currently in a drive thru line at Wendy’s and it’s super backed up. Cars in line going out of the parking lot because the lobby is closed. One of the workers comes out for a smoke break and the lady in front of me starts yelling at her to “get back to work” and how “your generation is so entitled and lazy”. Poor girl looked like she was about to cry as she got up and went back in. Sounds pretty hypocritical to me. Does this post belong here?

schedule issues
hi all I need advice on something, so at my job we get our schedules for one week only, the problem is the work week starts on sunday and they routinely onnly send out the schedule the friday prior (so say sunday is the 15, we wouldn't get our schedule until the 13 at earliest) this makes it impossible to schedule anything, is theere anything I as an employee can do? because as of today saturday we still do not have our schedules supposed to start tomorrow.
25$/h job – 250 applicants in 4 days
For all the “No one wants to work” crowd, I posted a 25$/h job on Tuesday evening and have already had 250 applicants. People want to work, they just don't want to work for below-living wage.
I've been wanting to vent about my one and only job in private high finance. Was tempted to put this on Glassdoor but at this point I'd be surprised if the boss is still alive. The company provided private equity loans to people climbing the property ladder. High interest rates, fast approvals (but only 10% of applicants were approved). Four people in a tiny office with no view in an expensive skyscraper. After a successful interview, I was given a one week trial. They were so impressed on my first day they gave me the job immediately. I do have some beginners luck in general, but also I'd been studying their website all weekend. I was so excited because it was in a fancy part of town, in an impressive skyscraper with a luxurious interior. I felt so out of place in my cheap office clothes. I would walk to…
our usual weekend meeting started off with the numbers we arent at, and apparently we're taking a field trip to find items we can quickly sell. preformance reviews have been happening all day and im so tired. yesterday i was yelled at and as the youngest sales member im slightly terrified of talking to my bosses i hate the need for numbers. its a pandemic, nobody wants an expensive warranty when they need to afford food and gas and such. we dont care.
I live in Canada, Ontario if you could help I called in on our busy days and that's a big no-no because my boss threatened me again yesterday for the third time in my less than a year being there so I'm certain I'm getting fired. I know that I can get unemployment for harassment but as I have no proof I'm screwed over there
Looking for “references”
If you're able to be a reference for a job interview hit my line, kinda struggling with this part LMAO
Shady Restaurant
I worked at a restaurant for six years, not a chain, locally owned— the type of place that would insist that the staff was family. However, every time someone put in their two weeks notice, they would get written out of the schedule within one week. Every time. Didn’t matter how long you had worked there. I was young, it was my first job, I started working there when I was 17, so out of loyalty when I decided to go back to school in a different state I gave a month’s notice and was written out of the schedule within a week after six years. I hadn’t recognized the pattern before it happened to me, or I did t think it would happen to me too. I tried to talk to the boss about it and she just deflected and made excuses, burned the bridge. I realized much later…
I have a virtual interview with a tech company next week that recruited me to start a new department for them. However, I got an email from them asking for my permission to record the interview to using a 3rd party software to “streamline the note taking process.” I looked the third party up, and it apparently records the video and audio, allows the interviewers to click options of “action item, bookmark, pain points, insight, positive, situation, etc” during the interview, and send the recorded video and text to whomever they wanted via email, slack, Asana, CRMs or whatever they want. Is this normal? Do most people give consent to this? I don’t feel comfortable having my face and voice recorded and stored anywhere, whether it’s at the company recruiting me or the software used to do it. I feel like it’s an invasion of privacy, and don’t like the…
