I work at a popular restaurant in a nice part of town as a server and bartender. I've been here for about 2 years. What was once a fun and welcoming environment has changed dramatically, and I now dread going into work every day. From the new employees, to management, to some of the entitled customers, I am burnt out beyond belief. I am very aware of my capabilities and my skill in this field, I can do just about any job in the restaurant with ease. I feel like my abilities are taken advantage of by management on a regular basis. Some of the new people are just plain awful at their job, and they mess up orders constantly, forget to run their food and drinks to tables, and they call out whenever they please- and that leaves me (and some others) to pick up the slack. With no…

I would gladly pay 149$ for a Gold Platted, Anti-virus built in, multi platinum grammy winning HDMI cable under one condition. Imagine walking into a business and asking any employee – “Does this business participate in Citizen's United?” If yes then yes – I would gladly pay 149$ for a Gold Platted, Anti-virus built in, multi platinum grammy winning HDMI cable. *Citizen's United* = An inherently positive and flexible business model centered around relieving employee stress. The business promises -under threat of swift actionable fines redirected to the immediate need of the employees and the community- to granting thriving wages and benefits conditional to the area based on housing/medical/food costs to their employees. Small business owners who sell HDMI cables (widget) – If you can seriously make the claim you participate in Citizen's United I do not give a fuck what you charge – I know you will do right…

I have a love/hate relationship with my job. I love the work I do and the pay is decent but there are definitely aspects I hate. Like being sent to a home with a smoker or one with dogs. Both things explicitly outlined in my profile as excluded. But they actually think I'm going to say any of that to them? No freaking way. Like what's the point when they must know none going to risk thier jobs to complain on something that logs your ip address your location your age and race and gender.

Is it just me that thinks this? Like you can literally apply to so many jobs and they are flooded with applicants. Also most of them are either part time or not paying enough for people to survive. What are we supposed to do lol like just suffer under capitalism with no benefits lmao. I've been trying to find a job for weeks now with no luck at all. What will it give for a change in the world to happen.

I work at a drug treatment center in Minnesota and my last day was going to be the 10th. Today is 8 March. My daughter is home sick today so I’m having to work from home. My supervisor calls me and tells me I can bring in my key badge and key fob and clean up my office today. I said that doesn’t really work for me because I have a sick child at home. She said we really need it today.

Are there any online petitions re: FTC vote for non competes? How to have our voice heard? Thanks!

I have two part time jobs. Because one of them really lagged on actually getting me on the schedule I found a second one that pays a little more but has set weekend hours. I had to adjust the availability with the first place to accommodate. They weren’t too happy. First place sent out a request for who needs to have certain trainings, set the weekend for my birthday weekend. I said I could go, but that was last month they did that. I never heard another word until today when they suddenly needed a sign up for everyone that day. I had to tell them I couldn’t do it because I made other plans. If you mention something and then don’t even bring it up for another month, I’m going to assume it’s not happening. And if you’re trying to schedule last minute, that’s kind of a you problem.…
