Manager recognized me for my hard work and gives me a scratch off for a chance to win a prize.

Just as the title says. I got recognized for my hard work and rather then 'getting' the prize. Like a gift card, bonus, or some other perk. I get the 'chance' to win a prize; either a $10 gift card for the store I work at or a charm thing for those godawful croc sandals. It's insulting. Like my hard work isn’t enough to just get it and now I’ve to gamble my way into getting anything.

Manager forgot to do my yearly review, now I have to wait a whole year for a raise.

I work at a grocery store and my main manager that oversaw me was promoted to a higher position before he did my yearly review. The person that took over his position was not informed of this and I had to bring it up. She told me she would get back to me in a couple days. A week passes and I end up having to bring it up to her. She tells me that she talked with the old manager and that it has been “too long” and I will have to wait until next year's review, which means no chance for a raise for another year. This just baffles me and I am wondering if there is anything I could do to assist myself in this situation?

There’s truly no real incentive to work hard, to be productive nor to consume or have children, quiet quitting is a signal that workers are waking up, productivity needs to go down to match current salaries since bosses refuse to increase salaries to match current productivity.

Fuck the work force nowadays.

I went thru an apprenticeship to build/ rebuild and setup machines I graduated and was there for 7 years. Made decent money, laid off when COVID happened. Just took an interview and was offered a job for several dollars less. They run and rebuild old machines that I went to school for. They also told me nobody there makes that much money. I don’t think I can take the job.
