Just asking for advice, a co worker of mine signed my name and signature on a petition that was sent to my company manager. I had no knowledge of the petition or that my name was on it until my manager came to me annoyed. Obviously I told her the truth, that my signature had been forged by someone else, but they didn’t seem to investigate any further or be as angry as I was. Am I over reacting, or should I take this to HR?

Pay + Flexibility?
Hey all, new here and wondering if anyone has any ideas for me. I've been in all kinds of customer service going on 20 years now. Most recently, as a server at a restaurant. It was a tolerable career, as I typically averaged $25+ per hour, the place was ran smoothly, and I was able to take time off almost whenever I wanted. I've recently relocated and ended up at another restaurant, but the stress levels are way higher, and it's making me rethink my career options. I'm looking for any other ideas of jobs that can provide $25+ per hour, while also allowing as much time off as I desire; typically 5-8 weeks or more per year. Furthermore, I know that starting my own business is the best way to acquire that sort of freedom, but I'm not sure I have the discipline I would require. Any thoughts or…
My bestie and I work at the same place. She works the hardest shift, I work the most undesired shifts. It balances out, a large majority of our business hours are worked by just us two. We have a third employee, but they work a lot less. However, I would like to quit. I found job opportunities that offer me experience and growth in the office world and that's exactly what I want. I want a 9-5, steady schedule, benefits, etc. My current job doesn't offer me any of this and never has. I also hit the pay ceiling recently. With quitting, also comes all these open hours id no longer be working. It's at least 40 hours all together that would be up for grabs. My boss will not work them, he will expect me to work it until he finds someone OR he will expect my best friend…
First of all, excuse my english, it is not my native language, I am from Europe but not from an English speaking country. Now onto my story. I work as a waitress in a pretty famuous coffee place in our town, it's hell and ever since I've started I've been looking for another job, the only reason I'm still here is because the pay is not that bad (still not enough to compensate the work we do as we work alone in a really big rush all the time, it's awful) and because I'm looking for jobs outside of waitressing which are harder to find with my education. Anyway, last week me and my partner were on vacation and when we returned (Monday) we found out we have corona virus. Now in my country, the law is basically corona=a cold and my boss said I have to come to work…
I know this seems like a small deal to some people, but I recently went to a college football game and just get so upset seeing others have the time of their lives. They are so lucky and privileged and don’t know how rare it is. College has so many clubs, Greek life, and opportunities to within walking distance, and people take it for granted Most people don’t even get to college. I couldn’t get into college even though I studied my butt off in high school and constantly went to my teachers for help. I just wasn’t smart enough. Going to community college simply didn’t give you the same opportunities. I really harbor a ton of resentment to those who went to college in their youth and have fun, and it kills me I didn’t get that opportunity
Considering just not going back to work…
I guess the title could be a little misleading but I have actually handed in my notice but it wasn’t meant to be done until the 4th of September.. in the UK we have a bank holiday tomorrow so no work, but I’m considering just sending in an email to advise I’ve brought my notice forward and just won’t be returning.. I’m going into further education again on the 6th of September, already got my plan sorted.. really want to give myself that week to decompress and relax.. but I’m worried.. Please encourage me to do it!
