I'm trying to swap over to another department in my company because the one I am with is with an insufferable boss and bad hours. I had an interview with department B and they seemed really interested but I was later informed by a boss of dept A that they no longer had room for me so I carried on with position A. A colleague left department B so I reached out to department B again for an opportunity and was told that they had been told by department A that I was no longer interested a few months ago. I have clarified this to be a misunderstanding with department B and that I am still interested. I have since then heard there was a new hire for department B. I did not think to reach out then but did when a former colleague of department B let me know…
The 3-ladder system of social class in the U.S. Typical depictions of social class in the United States posit a linear, ordered hierarchy. I’ve actually come to the conclusion that there are 3 distinct ladders, with approximately four social classes on each. Church describes a “Labor,” “Gentry,” “Elite” taxonomy, with an underclass as unlucky 13th. Transitions occur from “high skill labor” to “transitional gentry” (think the milling machine operator taking business classes at night) and “high gentry” to “elite strivers” (think the Ivy league grad who spends three years on Wall Street and then jumps to form a financial services startup) Thinking about this description of class in my own life, I can see where people I know rose up the rungs, jumped from one ladder to another, or found a place and stayed in it. I really enjoyed his description of the “Global Elite” (e1) On the other hand,…

How to get the IDGAF mentality?
I'm criticized if I try to be helpful and do things that have everything to do with my work but aren't technically my job. Yet if I don't do those things I get to hear the complaints. My boss is nice but clueless and is so quick to point fingers at me yet he doesn't understand my side at all. How do I get to the I don't give a fuck level because I feel like I still have fucks left to give? TLDR: How can I not give a fuck at work? Help
I've never been able to hold down a real job my entire life. I hate the whole concept of work. Most jobs have no variety and your stuck doing the same shit every day. Don't give me the “find income in something you enjoy” speech because that's just not usually a realistic thing. As a matter of fact, I don't want to ruin the things I actually enjoy by turning it into a job. Even my favorite activities I get sick of and move on from on occasion. Plant my ass down, playing video games for a few days straight and I take day or weeks off from that shit. Am I doomed? The thought of having the same mindless job until I die or retire gives me loads of anxiety.
Hopefully this is an acceptable post for this sub… I'm currently working for a really good company, possibly the best I've worked before. My office is 5 mins from home, it's quiet and there's hardly any stress. I've been in the industry for so long that it's quite easy to perform my duties (though some days can be challenging). When I was hired, I informed them I was looking for Part Time work for personal reasons. I agreed on 35 hrs a week instead of 20 (because my workload is rather light) I am the type who used to always look for more work if I wasn't doing anything. I'd get so loaded up on work and due to how obsessive and meticulous and disciplined I am, I could maintain larger workloads than my peers. However, every last employer that I busted my ass for has always come back with…
Ontario minimum wage was raised to $15/hr on January first but my work hasn’t increased wages yet. Is anyone else in the same boat? Whenever I ask about it they say they don’t know when it will actually take effect.
I interviewed for FedEx last week. The hiring manager was bragging about how he and his co-interviewer started out at the bottom as drivers and 'worked' their way to the top. They said to me I could do the same. (Pure entitled bs). I was thinking how cool it would be to hopefully be considered a management position once i complete my degree (only one semester away). However, when I asked the Operations Manager today if I'd be able to transfer my job to the other side of the state in the fall to finish school, he said no. I asked why and he said you need to work here for 12 months. (Super irritating to me because I'm a 5th year senior, trying to finish school and pay rent). After this he said this is why we (FedEx) offers part time positions. Then I asked if I could go…
