Bottom email is from a brand new employee asking for clarification, top email is bosses response. So rude and unhelpful, and she doesn’t even answer his question in the slightest. This is how she is all the time, and it’s so unnecessarily stressful when you have to ask the boss a simple question because nine times out of ten, you don’t actually get an answer, but will for sure be made to feel like shit for no reason. One month until I put my notice in, and I’m counting down every shitty day.
I know the answer is to leave my job, and I am working on it. Sales are down, and my boss – the Founder of the company, not a salesperson – is clearly getting very anxious and desperate and it's showing. I have leads I've been working on via email and then they schedule a call with me, and somehow my boss is finding out about the calls. I specifically do not include him because he has a tendency to make people uncomfortable and actually drive business away. He's very bragadocious is in a Trumpian way, like making shit up on the spot and quoting metrics I've literally never heard and know are not true. I just sat on a call with him where he did not let me speak, so these women who have been emailing with me exclusively are suddenly talking to a guy who they don't know…
Hi everyone, So I’ve just started a new job working in an office; today was officially my 7th day. My hours are 9am to 5:30pm however I normally get to work around 8:30am depending on traffic so I’m in the office by 8:35-8:40am. Today I began packing my things up and heading out the door at 5:29pm when my manager stopped me, looked at her non-existent clock on her wrist, and said ‘ehh what time do you call this? Your hours are until 5:30’…by the time it took her to say all that the clock had struck 5:30 anyway! There’s a few red flags that I’ve started to notice, such as requesting when I am allowed to take my lunch. As I am currently in training, I have been given leniency as to when I can take my lunch however once I finish training I will have to put the…
Am I wrong to believe that my boss is out to get me ever since I got pregnant. In the beginning of my pregnancy things weren't so bad I formed my boss my store manager very early on about 5 weeks and that I was pregnant. I did not want to take any chances getting hurt or anything on the job as this is my first child. As things progress I would go to the bathroom more often. My boss had made a comment a time or two about my frequent bathroom visits and how it was strange that I'd get morning sickness at 1:00 in the afternoon. I also got in trouble for being on my phone while taking a lunch in the office which I forgot to clock out for and that is my fault. And so he wrote me up for it being on the phone not…
As the title suggests, I want to fight for legal protection for people so they’re not being terminated for absolutely no reason at all. Because employers can essentially fire without a good and substantial reason, they can go out of their way to fire you for racial, sexist, or other discriminatory reasons if they decide to choose not to explain their decision. I have a mental disability and I can’t defend myself to keep my job unless my job makes it clear that my mental disability is the absolute reason for firing me. This is insanity that we can just fire people if the wind blows in the wrong direction or if the company is losing money due to a poor economy. It’s terrible for economic reasons to even allow a company to disband employees without cause as it would take more money from the economy through social programs. Because…
I had to take a physical for a job. They never specified a drug screening. I got drug screened at the physical. I am a chronic user of marijuana in a legal state. How should I proceed?
