They just used my PTO day without my request or knowledge!

Last week, the warehouse shut down for 2 days bc of the weather. I had already called off (risking a point. I'm “allowed” 6 in a year before getting fired). Since they decided to shutdown, I have no points. They did a mass text saying that if you want to use your PTO days, to call the number and let them know so supervisors can put that in. I never called bc I dont want to waste a PTO day. Today, I check my last weeks schedule and it says they used a pto day for me… uh, what?! I'll be paid for 4 days instead of 3 but tbh, I need the pto day… PTO day for this company means you can call in, say you're using a pto day and you dont get any points.

Don’t get hurt at work, workman’s comp does NOT take care of you!

“Woah, Get in here you gotta see this!” – my PT guy today… Not something you ever want to hear. ​ I had a workplace injury L4-L5 disc herniation, 8 months ago, and I have had a single cortisone shot. That's it. They have done nothing to take care of me or help me in any way. ​ A month ago, they failed to send me a disability check, failed to notify me there was an issue, and now after pestering them over and over, they sent the check for the wrong amount, and I'm missing 11 days. ​ Between no treatment, my boss refusing to return a simple email or contact me now that I am cleared for work, and now the runaround on money, I have ZERO faith in the medical system. ​ I am so desperate for help I can't even formulate it into words. Please, if…

It kinda hit me.

But boy howdy, i got hit by a wave of burnt out exhaustion after a friend jokingly said i should rejoin working jimmy johns since her store is paying 13, when i was paid 11, and that. Not once in my entire working life have i seen a raise or bonus and i’m here at another entry level fucking job. Sure the pay is better but ultimately i’m making less than what i’m being paid thanks to fucking fees and a union due on top of that. I fucking hate working. Fuck corporate america
