Hey Reddit, I'm in a bit of a dilemma and could really use some advice and insights from you all. Six weeks ago, I started a new job at Company X, and things have been going relatively well. However, I recently received an offer from Company Y that aligns perfectly with my career plan and comes with a salary that's double what I'm currently making. While it's an amazing opportunity, I can't shake off the guilt and conflict I feel about resigning from my current position. I don't want to leave my new team in a tough spot, especially so soon after joining. On the other hand, this offer from Company Y represents a significant step forward for my career, both financially and in terms of professional growth. Has anyone been in a similar situation before? How did you handle it? I'd love to hear your stories and advice on…

It used to be that I checked in with my supervisor when I came to work, and they would give me directions throughout the day, and I'd leave when I got the go-ahead from him. Now he's no longer our highest ranking supervisor, the new guys want us to use the Teams app to track our hours. Thats all fine if it weren't for the fact that I'm still required to enter my times as written on the clock in app, which doesn't even work half the time so my hours and breaks are all over the place and have to be edited eventually. The managment that is supposedly tracking our hours and keeping up with when we're working isn't responsible for putting those times in for payroll? It made sense for me to do it when I was the one tracking it, but now that I'm not, why is…

Daughter works part time at Target and just got a 9 cent “raise”. I guess that's all I have to say.

I frequently see people in here with tech jobs taking about how they only work a few hours a week. I want to make the switch but I don’t have any formal training or experience. Does anyone have any advice for making the change?

Sorry if this is the wrong sub, happy for a redirect… I just got laid off (with some severance), but HR is telling my coworkers I quit. Is this common? Is it legal?

3-5 companies own almost all of America, and every person working in the ladder for them are being brainwashed into narcissistic demons or making posts about it here. Ik some people don’t have shame to outs a company after seeing it’s true nature, and some get into a legal battle involving labor laws which is great. But… Do y’all really think all these (or something along the concept) will lead to a complete work reform? Do you think anything will happen in the next 5 years that might cause this? imho, I don’t think there’s an individual capable of changing the world for the better like that just yet. Too much corruption. Hope everyone can have a decent shift today though

I taught for 6 years. Love teaching but hate everything else about it. I finally quit. I was looking for a remote job and did a project management certification to look for PM work. Before I could find a remote job, my bf got laid off. I took a job in person in my town. The job itself is training and so much like teaching. I like that aspect and I like the freedom I have. However, I hate being in person, I hate being interrupted and bothered non stop all day by people coming through the office. I also now hate the idea that I have so little vacation time. Went from bad to bad. Fucking miserable ATM.
