The threats have to end: “Seeing as how companies like Google, Meta, Facebook, and others have executed mass layoffs due to a slowing economy and other factors, the last thing any employee needs right now is severing their source of income due to their inability to follow the rules.”

In line for supervisor role for a franchise Starbucks, any thoughts on how to incorporate this movement and influence more equitable/palatable job opportunities for my employees?

In short, I’d be hiring people, creating game plans for the work week, and basically helping run if not running the store. How can I help foster a more perfect work environment?

National Unions in the U.S.

Why isn't there a national union for all workers in the U.S.? I found a list of unions here: https://www.findlaw.com/employment/wages-and-benefits/list-of-us-labor-unions.html Shouldn't there be a national union that allows for any and all workers to join? It could advocate for things like minimum wage, vacation time, etc. ?

Boss literally ignores me and expects me to be an expert in things with no training.

I work for a small-medium sized company, that does not have its shit together whatsoever. I got a new boss last year and it’s been literally anxiety inducing and hellish signing on daily – there is like 0 communication I literally had to ask for a 1:1 which she will often not come to or push out, and when she does attend I can just hear her typing and not listening or helping/guiding me at all. When I email her she’ll ignore it for weeks same with Slack messages or calls. She’s all over the place and is not really great at training when she even offers to help with anything (which is very rare). She does not ask or care about my workload and she puts me on multiple big projects that I am not really trained on and just expects me to figure things out – I feel…

My job demands I download app’s to my phone for work, but flips out if I touch my phone

I had to download three app’s to do my job. Things like authenticators for the banks, etc. Ok, no problem. I get it. But when I touch my phone my boss gets all pissy and stays “limit you phone usage” or “please put your phone away”. Every time I touch it. How is she getting work done if she’s constantly watching me? First, I’m using the phone to access the app’s you made me get. Second, I don’t love having to use my personal device for work, but I do it. It’s like they created a situation to get me in trouble. Edit: I also am not allowed to charge my phone at work. So if it dies, I can’t do my job. No win situation.
