I work at a physical therapist clinic as a technician/ Oc and kinda realized how much people are getting screwed over by physical therapy companies and the employees also. Our rvp says that we (hourly employees) make enough but i literally make 30% less and my coworkers 25% and he refused to give a raise. As for the patients we have to schedule 230+ a week sometimes 1 therapist sees 3 people and we keep them here for weeks while the company makes bank off these people knowing how insurance works and knowing that some of these people can get the same results at the gym. I especially hate when a patient says they feel a lot better and aren't in pain and then the therapist say “well we wanna make sure you're good so see us a few more times” and its just for profit purposes

So I got passed over for a promotion, again. The first time it was done the person ended up not taking the job (I wasn't even aware this happended until a month later) and the second time it was for a position above what I was promised. Or so I thought, the reason they gave me was because it's actually a position above the one I was promised (which is true but…) I later found out from a coworker that she was offered the promotion I was promised. She turned it down but now I'm pissed. I was hired 6 months ago and told that a supervisor position would be made available (with the implication on both ends being I would fill it after I got used to the venue and the position became open). So far the job is fine, I actually enjoy it, it has some stuff that…

Sorry in advance if this isn't the best thread for this question (and please kindly direct me elsewhere): what is the best way for me, as an employee of a company with locations across the US and some international sites to inquire about any ties to Russian investors? I asked my HR but no response. I want to know who I'm actually working for…

I work at a chick fil a location inside a mall. Work is decent, I cannot complain about the workload because it can get busy because it's chick fil a. My problem is regarding breaks. You see, I live in a state where breaks aren't required for those over 16, but my jobs handbook states as long as I work (at the minimum) 5 hours, I'm guaranteed to have a break somewhere in my shift. For some days, since I work closing, my shift leader/manager tells me that I cannot have a break because I'm “closing” (this is a 5 hour shift), which confused me but I thought because it's the rules, I just couldn't get a proper break (except for eating a sandwich for lunch… Which takes me at least 2 minutes). My problem lies with my 5 hour closing shift on Monday. On the clipboard that lists our…

I’m sorry this is so long. I may be totally biased but even after editing I think it is worth reading. I spent nearly 6 years working for an organization that supplies retail goods and services to military service members and their families. Up front I’ll acknowledge the fact that I should never have accepted the position on a personal moral level. I am diametrically opposed to the application of military force on a global level. I justified this job by always living the idea of being anti-military but pro-soldier. I worked as a civilian and I’ve always felt indentured to our service members for the decision they’ve made to serve something larger than themselves whether or not I agree with what they’ve committed to. I preface my story with this to understand the struggle that came with this position and how the organization I worked for exploited these emotions…

I already know this manufacturing company in the south has close to 3M in PPP loans- wondering if this company has been actually good to its workers and retaining them vs laying off people and keeping the money. I’m honestly 50/50 about wanting this manufacturing hell job (12 hour shifts)- so Im curious if thats something I should ask for shits and giggles considering the current “job market”
