My position got eliminated and i was offered the choice to transfer to a new job or take severence. Took the severence but the severence offer requires me to work 3 more weeks. I feel insane like I’m being held hostage. I haven’t been told what I’m expected to do within his time and no one has been identified as a trainee to absorb any of the work I was doing. ….. I guess the extra paychecks will be nice but it’s honestly so humiliating and feel like I’m being punished.

If I live in a location that has a lower cost of living, then an employer should not offer me less than someone in the opposite condition. It’s the same work, and if I’m paid less, then I can never afford to move up to a higher cost of living area. Also fuck employers that want to know your current/previous salary to determine an offer. Pay me what I’m worth. This kind of income gatekeeping should be illegal. It’s exploitive, and causes further classism.

I was only supposed to work 3 days this week but poof SHIFT. No one called me to ask where the duck am I. So now I got a no call no show and no job. Well at least Victoria's Secret made my life easier. I was about to put my two weeks in today when I came in for my 9am shift-

Ive been looking at this subreddit, and this has probably been asked before, but what is the ideal paying job for you? Ill start: guitar or bass player for a metal band

I hate my retail job. I hate my managers. So, so much. I'm planning on quitting in the next few days since I'm going back to college soon but fuck every time I have a shift I just fill with anger and hatred. We aren't allowed to sit down, even when it's when doing something that would make doing the job easier/faster (sitting on the low fitting room bench to clasp a mountain of go-back bras as opposed to standing up and bending over to do it, hurting my neck and back, since the mountain is on the bench) Constantly pressured and shamed into working overtime hours even though it's not on the schedule and theres no call-in time (last week I was supposed to leave at 11 pm, no call-in, ended up leaving at almost 2 am and i routinely have to leave 1-2 hours after my shift is…
