Legit work from home jobs

There is a user on this sub who has commented on other users posts a few times with a list of legit work-from-home companies. I can’t find that list when I search here or google it. I was hoping someone could either link to one of these posts or if that very kind Redditor could comment on this post with that list? TIA

Rejected a follow-up interview with a massive hydraulic actuator company for fun

I’m a second year fluid power student at a technical college, and a very large actuator company gets first pick of the students due to the fact that they fund a large part of our program. They bring an HR rep in to try and get some of the top students to apply for an interview and a full tour of their facility, AND free pizza. They are DESPERATE for new hires, and the HR rep made that VERY obvious. When I asked what big name contracts they had and she answered, I knew then and there I wouldn’t work for them (Department of Defense and their various subcontractors, Blue Origin, etc). I took the interview for the free pizza (which they spared NO expense on), and I even got a neat coffee tumbler and a laser stylus pen in a gift bag. When they called me for an additional…

Is it a great job…

I make exceptional money. I get some PTO, never get to use it. The company offers 401k match. Which a lot of companies do not do. I work 6 days some times 7 days a week. I've had months where like recently I've only had 1 day off. Like recently I then took a Saturday, called in so it would give me a 2 day weekend. The general attitude I returned too was like I was a terrible employee with attendance issues. Other than my time off this year incredibly sick with COV-19, which I literally took 5 days off for. Was getting called all day each and every day. Came in the first 24hrs after no fever due to pressure from higher ups and looked like death for a week was still dizzy all the time and weak. They used my PTO for this without asking. Last year I…

Game of Life Salaries in 2022 Dollars

I did some quick searching and didn't see anything readily available. I don't know if the Game of Life had any significance with people desiring certain incomes growing up, but I have included what the salaries would be if The Game of Life were introduced in 2022 instead of 1960 (assuming a 3.7% average rate of inflation – source). Game of Life (1960 Dollars) 2022 Dollars $10,000 $94,982.43 $20,000 $189,964.86 $30,000 $284,947.29 $40,000 $379,929.72 $50,000 $474,912.15 $60,000 $569,894.58 $70,000 $664,877.01 $80,000 $759,859.44 $90,000 $854,841.87 $100,000 $949,824.30

Company payday – it’s my supposed payday today and there’s still no update from any of my managers. Anyone else experience such egregious negligence from their corporation?

I still haven’t gotten my pay despite my managers assuring me that I’ll be paid on the 15th of each month.

Working until 1am in high-school.

I worked at the movie theater in high-school. It was a great job for someone that age, free movies and popcorn (great for dates) and $11 an hour back in 04. Everything was great until i turned 18. You see at 18 they could make me stay until 1am to close and as we had a lot of young people i was one of the few old enough to do this. So they kept scheduling me 4 days a week closing at 1am only to have to get up for school at 6am. This was not a good situation and i told my head manager i would do 2 max, any more on the schedule and ill walk. She laughed and waved me off. Fast forward a week and its Friday night (busy night at the theater). We have a new trainee on and we are down a man from…
