Does anyone else feel like we never are allowed to know what our manager’s schedules are? I’ll ask for help and mine will just say she’s busy, forget our meetings (or be completely unprepared for them) etc.. In fact, her entire job is to supervise my coworkers and I but no one can ever track her down. We often get attitude from her based on her mood, or if we do not know what is going on. She will also ignore us with any questions and concerns. She works from home (we do not) and we see her snap stories of her going out to eat, taking “appointments” where she literally is installing art in the middle of the day (that she copied from the internet) but is getting paid her salary plus whatever for installing the artwork. This isn’t the first job where this has happened but also what…

I keep seeing posts about multiple rounds of interviews, conference calls with different departments, and today there was a post where part of the interview was to do a weeks long project in 2 days, all for free. How much do you have to get paid to waste your time with such long interview process’s? It would have to be a job offering me probably a few hundred or more thousand dollars for me to put that much energy into something that may reap me 0 benefits. Am I the crazy one? Or are you guys the crazy ones?
Hello everyone. My business partner and I own equal shares in an e-commerce business we started a few years ago after we both quit our full-time jobs. A few weeks ago, we had a terrible fight (not for business reasons). We haven't talked for a while. He left the country for a short vacation, which meant that I was in charge of everything. But today, he hit me with the news that he wants to quit our company, and I should get some money to buy it off, or he'd sell his share to the highest bidder. I've known him for more than ten years, and I know that he's not joking. It's not just an attempt to get back for that black eye I gave him. We've had worse fights since we started working together. He's serious about this. Our business is registered as LLC,…
People be like “Why is there a nursing shortage!?” My brother in christ, nurses cannot pay their bills in candy.
My supervisor invited me to her wedding. As of course wedding plans and invites come months before the actual event, my experiences and view of her have grown mostly sour and I no longer want to attend the wedding or spend any of my time outside of work around her. If I don’t go will this inevitably make my situation worse? Or should I go just to avoid the petty sourness and passive aggressiveness that will ensure if I don’t. A little bit of context, I work for a big firm who’s one of those “we’re all family” type places. Starting right out of college and being hooked by what I thought was her genuine care and kindness, I was excited when her fiancé proposed and she invited me to the wedding. Two years into working with her and I’ve seen her true colors. Blocking opportunities for my advancement, talking…
i started working for a local campground about a month ago doing guest services/reservations after doing food service for the past decade. this is my first non food service job and on my third day i was offered a supervisor position and told my manager i would like to discuss it with my gf because it would mean longer hours and more sporadic shifts and she’s a stay at home mom. the following week i talk with my manager and was told that they hired someone with more experience than myself, which at first i was understanding of their decision but then was told that i would be training said person and have been for the past few days. i enjoy the job because it’s a change of pace but between getting skipped over and the imposter syndrome i just don’t know how to move forward and continue with this…
