So we all work for money right? I’m guessing some of y’all had to do extra work that wasn’t compensated and was met with “you serve out of the goodness of your heart”. So why is unpaid labor normalized and defended. I hate how working for money has become stigmatized. So I’m prior service, I served in the army for 3 years and one of the common lies I heard was “it’s a 9-5 job”. Even though we had to show up at 0630 to do some workout and then something needs to be done so we end up working past 5. On top of that, we even work on weekends sometimes and holidays with no guaranteed compensation. The moment we complain we’re told we’re getting too “soft” or “you signed the contract and you do it for your country”. So you’re basically paying me 9-5 and then add extra…
Although fun, pulling out a flask and drinking the whole thing during the start of an interview, does not result in getting hired. Neither does pulling out a second flask, offering it to the interviewer, and before they can respond, saying “PSYCH!” and finishing the second flask.
Universal basic income is a very efficient solution that improves the condition of the unemployed people. This system allows part-time working and with a good implementation there is a minimal need for bureaucracy. Unemployment is not a crime, yet the unemployed people, depending on the country, are sometimes in worse conditions than people who are jailed. This is a discrace and the solution is universal basic income. It allows decent living for people who have lost their livelihoods for the reasons of corporate layoffs, scumbag bosses, illness and toxic workplaces.

Hello all, I would like to highlight that the Buffalo Niagara area still struggles with racism, which affects both private and public entities. Specifically, Roswell Park Cancer Corporation, a publicly funded organization, is dealing with several discrimination lawsuits involving its board member, Michael Joseph, and the corporation itself. I simply aim to increase people's awareness of where their donations and tax dollars are directed. It is important to understand the destinations and purposes of these funds, ensuring a clearer understanding of their impact and allocation. Roswell Park received and continues to receive both state and federal funding. Please look into these articles on past events of ongoing discrimination against doctors, staff, and patients. https://www.investigativepost.org/2023/03/27/roswells-unacceptable-response-to-racism/ https://buffalonews.com/business/local/roswell-park-has-paid-4-67-million-to-settle-discrimination-lawsuits-faces-more-complaints/article_a144661e-d3c3-11ed-96c7-337e214e2642.html https://www.investigativepost.org/2023/02/27/yet-another-roswell-lawsuit-alleging-bias/ https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/988302 https://www.wigdorlaw.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/1.31.Law360.Center-Booted-Doctor-Who-Raised-Safety-Issues.pdf https://law.justia.com/cases/federal/district-courts/new-york/nywdce/1:2019cv01200/125521/28/
Maybe I’m a little ignorant because the only things I’ve volunteered for was stuff in high school/with friends because I was asked by an actual person I knew. But I came across a volunteer ad in my email for a local film festival, thought it sounded interesting and I’m a film buff so I started to fill out the application but after looking into it more I realized there were no dates listed in the email or on the application and discovered the festival is only two times a year, in April, which has obviously already happened, and then not until October. I guess it’s possible they need to figure things out ahead of time and the festival is completely legitimate and some fairly well known actors have attended so they probably have a lot of people apply for the volunteer position but this is still pretty misleading because the…
I started working a new job not even 60 days ago and put in my first HR complaint in my life due to my direct supervisors accusations of me being rude / offensive. For context I work as a line cook and have been accused of yelling when announcing the last of something / asking them for something since it’s out on the line (I.e: plates / garnishes). This lastest time was being told to “not ever” say “I love it” again. I was clear in my email to HR stating I only want it documented and would like to have it documented in case it escalates. These incidents conveniently happens when the supervisor above us both is on her weekend. Fast forward to not even a week after my complaint, I get two write ups in one sitting over unrelated, petty incidents. I can’t help but feel this is…
