This could be the wrong sub for this but: I’ve broken my heel bone outside of work today. I work 14 days on 7 off. Since I’m the only source of income in my household, I’m sort of panicking on what to do. Do i have any options since this happened outside of work such as workmans comp etc, or am i fucked?

Hey guys, I recently got a pretty good job offer, I told my current Boss (we always had a good working relationship) and she is trying really hard to get me to stay (negotiating a bonus and a pay raise with HR for me, trying to convince me verbally etc.) We agreed that I would think about it and tell her my decision on friday, yesterday she wrote me an email with all her Points why I should stay which included this: [Translated into English] ” Is this the new company? #linktonewcompany …rethink this decision I say this with good reason!!! I am not sure you will be 100% happy there. With us it might also not be 100% but definitely 95% I talked to [her boss]. She also said you should really think about this because you have so many oppurtunities with us!!! She also knows the new company…

Currently my whole state is covered in smog from the wildfires in Canada. I work in a warehouse and yesterday the place was filling with smoke from outside. Of course since it’s a warehouse we have all the dock doors open and are constantly unloading/loading trucks and bringing in the new trailers. It took a few hours but by the end of the day this huge warehouse was smokey. Instead of letting us leave, “safety” has been going around and giving people Covid masks to work in and they closed the “unused” dock doors as a solution. Apparently employees were complaining to the Gm who didn’t see an issue with allowing us to keep working. I’m in a panic because I have pretty bad asthma. Even going outside has been dangerous/scary. I swear if I walk into work today and the place is smokey/hazy I’m gonna turn and leave. It…

This post is a little time sensitive but I decided I’m quitting my job this morning. Had the job for about 3 months. I have some personal effects there but I really don’t want to go back. What should I do and how should I quit? Just not show up? Email???? Help!

If an employer/corporation doesn't want to pay employees enough to pay bills and eat the least they could do is give us a set 4 day work week so we can schedule for our second jobs.

I recently posted about how my company was making me redundant. I tried to drag my heels and get them to keep me employed as long as possible so I could find another job in the meantime. One of the suggestions i posed was that instead o fpigeonholing me in some shitty department, why not let me do my magic across all departments and really help the clients out? It took them less than 24 hours to come up “As a search first agency we rely on PPC and SEO..” blah blah fucking blah. Essentially the said they don't need me. That was at 4pm, yesterday. I wake up to an email from one of the big wigs asking me to do my magic, for a client, in another department. It's literally the opposite of what they said no more than 30 minutes of work related time ago. And bizarrely…
