might get fired in July for taking vacation

In July, my wife and I are going to South America for vacation.my schedule is on a 2 week rotation. Starting Sunday, I work Sun,off Mon,, Tues. Work Wed, Thurs. Off Fri, Sat, Sun. Work Mon, Tue, off Wed, Thur, work Friday, Sat. Start over. I put in for July, 4 days off. On this rotation, it would be Wed, Thurs, then Mon, Tue the following week. That gives me 10 consecutive days off, but only 4 work days I would have to take off. The supervisor told me I could not have 10 consecutive days off. The most they would allow is 7. I figured I was cutting time short with 10 days, but was going to make it work. I have 80hrs of vacation time for the year, and I'm taking it. Time away is more important than any job. I put for the days off months in…

My manager works from home, yet never lets us work from home.

So my manager and line manager work from home a lot of the time. Yet me and my coworker (we are a small team) are expected to be in the office every single day. She’s never even mentioned WFH to us. All I want is a couple of days working remotely. Me and my coworker are capable of working from home. So why does my manager get to do it and we can’t ??? so frustrating having to drive in to the office 5 days a week, when I can do the exact same work from home.

Final Paycheck After I quit

I worked at a Dunkin Donuts for a few months, and the entire time I was looking for a new job. I hated it there, but nonetheless I never called out and always showed up and did my job. I recently got hired at a new place and started immediately so I quit Dunkin without notice. Basically ghosted the job cus fuck them (pay was low and management and coworkers treated me like crap). I haven’t gotten my last paycheck and it’s been almost three weeks. That’s hundreds of dollars i’m missing. What do I do? Are companies allowed to withhold checks if you quit without notice?

How to Get my Coworker to stop calling me unnecessarily everyday for hours at a time

I have a coworker who loves me.. I know it's not something to complain about, having a coworker that I get along with. The problem is that we work remotely and she calls me very very frequently. At least 3 times a day. And the call lasts for hours. We just talk while we work. It's honestly so distracting for me but she says that she likes working that way because it makes her day go by faster. Our manager has said that he doesnt mind this as long as we're getting our work done. I've already tried telling her multiple times that I prefer to not be on the phone all of the time and she'll stop calling for a day or two but then slowly she builds back up to it I just don't know what to do. When I tell her that I don't want to talk,…

Nobody should have to work in these conditions.

Don’t ever say “they are taking our jobs” because you wouldn’t be out in the #California doing this during a damn storm. pic.twitter.com/vvP3gDH18d— ️️PJ️️ (@PJocky82) February 25, 2023

Misclassified as a contractor (1099), should I report or suck it up?

Young and naive, I accepted what seemed to be a dream job last year at a very small business (owner and one other employee) on the boss’ condition that they would pay me as a self employed 1099 contractor as a “trial”. I was paid the full salary for 5 months with the employer taking out no taxes; I set the money aside to pay them myself. Boss’ attorney informed them that this was illegal and I was paid as a regular W2 employee for the sixth month. Well, boss turned out to be a horrible psycho and I quit after month 6. That was June. Fast forward to now. They purposefully neglected to send me any tax forms at all. They said they would send them this week, so I’m expecting a 1099 and W2 next week but I’m wondering if I should fill out the IRS report form…

An “entrepreneur’s” autobiography

Today, I saw Jeff Bezos' autobiography in a book store. This is someone that got to where he is by screwing a lot of people over, whether it's employees, bricks and mortar stores or distribution networks. If someone mistakenly gave it to me as a gift, I'd put it on the front lawn, drop a litre of two of fuel on it and burn it to ashes
