People consider fast food workers as fools for not “getting a real job.” Yet those fast food chains make billions every year. And technically it’s the workers who made that money for the company, not the CEOs. Can you imagine if the profits were distributed fairly among all employees? Every single job would be a “real job” with real pay, real benefits, and not drain the life out of you.
Long story short, my boss had to come over to deliver something I’d left. He didn’t tell me he was coming, but he came by and put it together. He made a snippy comment about how he thought I only had A girlfriend and not TWO girlfriends. Anyways, the next day I got an email early saying my contract was terminated.

And I work for a relatively well known large company. Guess I’ll be job hopping again after 2 months here 🤡. The already red flags are BRIGHT RED CRIMSON.
Have any of you had a conversation with somebody that is leading a company about what’s really going on? Whether it’s a current employer and you’re speaking to someone leaving so they can tell you their perspective? Or, have you ever spoken to someone as a new hire?
