Why doesn’t anyone want to come back to the office? /S

These are meeting rooms / privacy coffins?

Take a picture that makes us look like we encourage good health, get a free (as in management doesn’t have to pay you for it) coffee break!

Complete and utter dread

Not happy at my current job. Been looking around to try and find something else. I've never felt so helpless in my life. Everything has terrible hours that they claim are flexible. Competitive pay that's way below a livable wage. I feel like a character in an apocalyptic movie who just saw a mushroom cloud in the distance and you see the blast coming. Like what the hell. Their seems to be no hope. Rents high, houses are unattainable and even fucken groceries are insane. An if you want to try and budget to make it by better get use to eat white rice and hot dog weiner soup so you can afford to pay rent and not have any social life whatsoever. Man I feel fucked.

Got paid only for the weeks I was on site, had a meeting with hr and management, got fired, got walked off the premises. The…

Self-checkout machines now ask customers to tip: ‘emotional blackmail’

https://nypost.com/2023/05/15/self-checkout-machines-now-ask-customers-to-tip/ When I worked in retail we were forbidden to take tips. I am slowly ceasing to tip, because my assumption is that like every other cost tipping is already baked into the price like every other cost a for-profit incurs on top of the already over-inflated markup, while CEOs, executives, and shareholders via management pay labor the legally allowable minimum.

Excluded out of things because I’m a woman

Literally as the title states, I've been in my job as an office manager for over a year. Always felt a bit excluded from certain meetings due to me being the only woman in the company. My boss has recently asked me to update the company website and add new members of staff on….. Firstly I've noticed he's added everyone, excluding me (and this is even people that are still going through their probationary) Secondly they're all men Thirdly I've noticed they've all had professional photos taken Fourth I've never been asked to arrange the photo shoot (as office manager this would be the norm kind of thing for me to arrange) I feel so upset, excluded and also shocked! I've emailed my boss with a 'what about us girls!?' For the website and typically he's ignored me. I don't know how else to go about this, but feel very…
