Death of a coworker

I’m not sure if this is the right place to post this but I’m going to anyway, about a day or 2 ago me and a few of my coworkers were going through our schedule and saw that a 18 year old girl who was one of our more diligent and consistent workers was scratched off the schedule completely for that specific day and we thought nothing of it and thought she may have called out and that same day we hired a new person and she came in and worked the shift the same day, next day come around and our coworker isn’t back and me and another manager who are good friends of her call her and text her with no response, we work the closing shift not knowing anything about her or her whereabouts and close the store later that night at around 4 am I get…

Left my management retail job for a remote job but now I’m starting to feel like I might have made a mistake..

I worked as a guest service lead at travel center(truck stop) for 8 years. I was burnt out and tired of covering my lazy Gm who literally sat on her ass for hours in the office. Who would get paid out huge bonuses for profit sharing. Towards the end I was pushing for a raise and they would not budge so I decided to end my time with the company. (I also developed severe insomnia from my schedule bouncing around constantly) I got a job working from home(it’s pretty awesome) for a call center working for various doctors,dentists and various medical offices. Training was easy money it was about 3 weeks. My first week alone wasn’t too bad. So I haven’t ever really worked at a call center I’m still getting used to sitting down all day and my “call etiquette “. I just had a team member warn me…

Only here for the memes

I have a pretty good job that pays me well, that I am good at and I like, with flexible working conditions. But I joined this for the memes. Would also like to say that these screenshots or texts and DMs with crazy supervisors are appealing, but not that every job is like this…don’t get too discouraged I guess.

Tired of getting treated like shit (spring break edition)

every get to work speach is about us doing work for the sake of the people but our economy only worries about the botom line and thats economic gains

Its propaganda. They try to slave us into a mentality that its for the good of the country take your shit pay while these ceos get free ahit own everything and we get nothing. Why do we do it? To be tired to miss fun? To not afford to even do the job we are forced to do? Thia is insanity it has to stop. A majority of the world's population doeant own nearly the amount a few hundred people do

My manager lost my direct deposit slip and gaslit me. I’m quitting. Need advice for future experiences.

On my first day of work, i handed the paper to her. She had 3 weeks to file it and never did. She claims that she doesnt remember me handing it to her. Either she really doesnt remember, or just doesnt want to admit that she lost something with my BANKING INFORMATION on it. She can pull me aside for five minutes and tell me my shirt needs to be tucked in all the way around like some kind of geek But she cant spare a fuck to give about a piece of paper with sensitive information, that could end up in the wrong hands and financially ruin me. Best part? If something does happen, I have no proof of giving it to her. I cant tell any higher ups because its a long-time manager’s word against a month-old employee’s. If my next job requires a direct deposit slip, what…
