been at the company for almost 3 yrs, quick turnaround, i'm “praised as the best employee” yet i just found out she shit talked behind my back. i've been telling her for the past 4 months i've been meaning to leave and find another place (keep in mind this is Min. wage job….) and every idea i bring up she shoots it down like “oh no not that place it's so bad….ew don't work there!!,…etc etc…” we've had no asiss. manager for 6 months and we just hired one yet she seems all talk no show yet she's being praised. i told her what i think of her + other coworkers agree and she had these scary eyes telling me “it's ok she'll be great in a month or two, what you don't trust me? you don't trust me? YOU DONT TRUST ME????” like what the fuck? she's had other…

So I’m wearing a holter because my heart is way too erratic for somebody my age (early 20s) and told one of my two bosses that I need my phone to track any irregularities as it’s quicker than writing them down. She told me she’d tell my other boss. This was Thursday last week. Today the other boss came in and saw me on my phone-I was entering data on how I just had a sharp pang around my heart area. “Ope! Phone!” I look at her confused. “No phones. That’s going in the office until the end of the day”, she explained. Thank god my coworker came to my defense to explain it’s literally for my damn heart. “Oh……okay well as long as it’s okay with [your coworker]…..” Can they just “take away” our phones like we’re in high school like that? Like damn zero communication between the two…

Co-workers waste time all day long, make more money than you do, get the best choice of shifts; yet you’re basically expected to pick up the slack? When would you just say fuck it and leave?

My SO sent me a pic of their facilities contribution to their social work staffs appreciation month. Their supervisor brought these treats in after lower paid entry workers asked if there were any plans to do anything before the month is over. As soon as I saw the pic, I knew exactly where to go. u/antiwork

So I work at lowes, my department is appliances I make $17 an hour and honestly I don’t get paid enough for what I do. I’m a girl and I’m like 5’2-5’3 and whenever someone buys an appliance it’s my job to go get it for them in the back so I be hauling and pushing big refrigerators and washers and dryers all sorts of stuff and there are times where no one is there to help me so I have to do it all by myself, it’s a lot for my size and I do not have the muscles for what I do and I really feel like I am underpaid for that. Also I am scheduled this week 6 days straight 1pm-10pm every single fucking day. I don’t have time to do shit with these hours. So today I called in and I’m trying so hard not to…

I called off work this morning and got a super passive aggressive response. I’ve never called off, been late, or caused problems. They asked for a doctors note but don’t offer insurance, should I just take the point?

i am so overworked and im on the verge of quitting my job because i can’t handle it, so i decided to talk to my boss about taking hours off my schedule and she said “can you give me few days?” and i said yes sure. That was wednesday today is monday and i haven’t heard a word. i understand there’s literally no one to take my hours but frankly that’s not my problem at all. i tried to work with her but now i don’t know how much longer i can wait.
