I’m going to preface the point of this post by letting you know where I stand on the big topics. Like most of you, I am pro-union, against capitalism, for socialism, for universal healthcare, all the stuff that we as a society should have figured out by now. But I do have a legitimate question that may not be popular in this sub. How does everyone feel about legit bad employees? I know this is vague, so I’ll give more context. I work in a produce department in a grocery store. We are a union store (UFCW). We have great healthcare at a great cost…this is the biggest plus for my job. We have paid holidays. We get time and a half for anything over 8 hours or 40 hours on the week. Non-union store managers have all been pretty cool overall. Our current upper management does stupid shit in…

I live and work in AZ for a local restaurant and I recently quit my job after the way they were treating me. They usually give out the final check in person once you return the shirts and I have that account in written form from other colleagues who quit who can confirm that they collected in person. For some reason, they told me they can only mail my final check after I returned my shirts. I returned my shirts 2 days before my payday and now it’s been 8 days since my payday with no check in the mail. Is there anything I can do since my ex employer refuses to respond to my inquiries about my paycheck?

I am a really quiet, friendly, nice person. So I don't ever snap at people.. I hate confrontation. But this morning I couldnt take it anymore. I was tired of being treated like crap by a toxic supervisor ( foreman in construction) and yelled at him in a burst of rage. Examples of his toxicity include: -Swearing profanely around our jobsites which can be at an Elementary school, or a church. -Always being so negative and blaming everything on me. -Getting into my face and wanting to fight or trying to provoke one. The list goes on and on. It us only me and him and a boss in the company, so no HR or anything. He drinks and does cocaine during work. Anyways, after the incident he apologized and we talked it over. He wasn't being mean to me for the rest of the day. However I feel like…

They're now enforcing eating at registers instead of standing off to the side out of customer view because “we don't get lunch breaks” Is there any action my coworkers and I can take to fight this? In North Carolina, at-will state.

Google Employee audibly laughed at me during a silent moment where I was thinking, during an interview 2 days ago. I was 5 minutes into solving a test given to me that only told me to merge 3 Linked Lists into one sorted one. The requirements only mentioned it generically and it did not mention they were pre-sorted at all so I had no idea what these inputs were lifecycle-wise [not mentioned in requirements]. I block allocated the 3 separate lists as if they were different pooled users, I then copied the elements into a new merged list in a sorting loop which was block allocated with the size of all 3. I kept the data integral because I was not aware of their use, the spec said nothing of that so I would assume they are used if they're just given to a function. Sure thats not what you…

Someone told me this but I couldnt believe it, they dress fancy and handle our financal interaction, have to go the school and are paid around minimum wage or only slightly more? Can anyone verify this?
