Was out of work for 2 months on company medical leave and just had a performance review and it was held against me for missing hours and didnt count overtime hours. Not to mention it was my 1st review in 2 years and was supposed to be getting one every 6 months and and its in my file that my manager went over them with me but im not a lawyer so dont even know if thats legal. Spoke to my rep and they act like its nothing new. So falsifying employee records is ok then?

I had the greatest work at home job. I had total freedom and worked maybe 4 hours per day. No one cared as long as all of the work was taken care of. Well now there's new management and we're going to have all of our activities monitored. If it doesn't look like we're constantly working, we'll be chastised and maybe eventually fired. So even if there's nothing to do I still have to be “working” until a certain set time and then clock out so I'll have to sit there clicking random screens and sections of the program we use in order to show evidence of that. A mouse jiggler isn't enough to prove anything because they are monitoring exactly what we are looking at and opening. If we take any break, we are expected to clock out and clock back in, so if I do that is just…
So I started a new job and it’s the first time I’ve had to deal with an…unpleasant coworker. They’ve been in my office longer than I’ve been alive and are in a senior public facing position. They’ve been rubbing me the wrong way for months and I’ve been hard on myself because I thought I was just being too sensitive. Well, turns out, they’ve been investigated by HR several times for creating a hostile work environment. They obviously haven’t been fired for it and I feel like I’m the newest target. Obviously I’m the low man on the totem pole and I don’t want to cause any problems, but what the hell do I do? It’s all been relatively minor passive aggressive behaviors that I don’t feel like I could complain about but now that I know it’s a pattern it feels obvious they’re trying to make my life difficult.…
The position said remote in the title and work from home at the top, but it was an on-site job. So, I reported it, and the next two positions I looked at did the same thing! I know they’re trying to lure candidates in, but seriously, do they really think that their $10.50/hour position is going to make me forget that I was looking for REMOTE!?
Just got fired. What do.
So I was just informed today that I am no longer employed. Aside from just typical job hunting and applying for unemployment, what sort of recommendations do you all have?
Work Posture
I received my yearly evaluation and my supervisor gave me a low evaluation because she felt that I was not “sitting up straight,” which therefore, according to her, is unprofessional appearance. She also gave me low evaluation because I had a personal item on the desk which was a deodorant. My team members have much more personal items on their desks and visible PHI. But she never mentioned anything to them. Can a supervisor tell you how to sit at work? My industry is human services.
Each check I have been paid it says I have been getting 4-5 hours of over time over each two week period. I work standard 40 hour week with two paid 15 minute breaks and unpaid 30 minute lunch everyday. I clock in and out on my work computer for lunch but understood I didn't have to for 15 minute breaks because they are paid for. There is an option to clock in and out for the 15s but I just haven't and I think that is where the overtime is coming from. Welp… hope they don't find out.
I get paid $13/hr lmao
They fired a man who lived in his car for stealing electricity when he charged his phone at work. A PHONE HE NEEDED SO WORK COULD CALL HIM IN! He was kept on call because this was cheaper for them, he lost wages from not working much so he lost his room he was renting. That didn't stop him, he kept his stuff in storage and slept in his car. Two weeks ago someone stole his bike from the roof of his car he lives in. It's shit like this, I don't fucking understand he worked in a casino a business that preys on sick people, fired someone for using 0.019 kWh, it costs them fucking nothing! When does fucking greed stop? The only thing that has changed is they don't calls us peasants to our fucking faces. I live in a state where a person ran for governor because…
