Ok so I work at a gas station, I'm not gonna give out location just yet but I want to call the health department on them but I'm sure I'll just get put out of work until it gets dealt with, how do I go through with this and not lose up to a month of hours

I am an office clerk in the trucking industry and my scheduled shift is 3:00pm to 11:00pm M-F. However, this week they have had me coming into work at 1:30pm and 1:00pm. I am expected to stay at work until everything is done for the night. This entire week, I have not left until around 1:15am. I left at midnight on Monday and my manager was upset and said that he really needed the help. The job is very understaffed, so my manager genuinely needed the help as he often is doing everyone’s job at once. When I leave, he has to finish my job. I honestly feel like that’s not my problem and this is not going to work if I keep having to work past my shift. Thoughts?

I work with my friend in IT. One of the smartest people I know, but at the same time very lazy and a bit of a goof. We are always venting about the hours we have to work and pay. Here's the thing he's started doing – he will apply for other jobs (embellishing his resume so he gets an interview). If he gets the job offer he will except and work his current job and the new one at the same time for a couple of weeks. Eventually he will ghost the new company until they fire him and will only return their equipment (like a laptop) if they threaten him. In the meantime he gets a month of double salary and a bunch of SWAG (shirts, mugs, etc). I told him this wasn't ethical and he's taking work away from someone that's out of work. His reply is…

I (18M) got my first job out of high school at Walmart to pay for my college expenses. When I first got the job, I was elated because I was finally going to start receiving my own money. But this quickly vanished once I realized how shitty my managers were. I get told to do things I wasn't even trained for, get yelled at for little things, and am required to work and leave whenever my bosses want. One big example of this is when me and my coworkers were told to go home early yesterday after our shift. However, I was told to stay after and talk to HR since I was having log in issues with my Walmart account. I clocked out and sat down to wait for HR. A bit later, the boss who dismissed me came and asked why I wasn't working and if I was…

I am 25. I always tried my best to be a good person for society and do my part. I feel subhuman, I feel worthless, I feel like crying everyday or I am numb. I became disabled from the depression, anxiety and PTSD this society caused me last September, and I haven’t left my couch in months. I feel like an animal confined to cage like a zoo. While all the people at the top laugh at my misfortune and see me as less than human. I feel very sad inside. I don’t know how much more I can take of this. My sanity has been slowly declining. I am an empath and I can’t stop absorbing all of the pain and suffering. I hurt so much for everyone. Why are they doing this to us. I feel so sad. The ancient world used to carve mountains and see the…

Her words: “Wake up and smell the coffee,” she told the studios. “We demand respect! You cannot exist without us!” ​ This goes for all workers. Famous Hollywood actors are in a better position that 99% of people, but many are low-earning workers that are risking losing their houses and income for the foreseeable future, and they're striking too. ​ There's power in numbers. I read a comment in another threat about this being a golden chance for a general strike. It is. If Amazon, Walmart, UPS, nurses, postal service workers, etc, do the same, I bet things may change for the better. Or at least I hope so. https://preview.redd.it/71oyf9h5vvbb1.jpg?width=1130&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1e5e98b9325b27b863f2d010a7cb5c910675a3d6

In the recent weeks we’ve had tons of anger about this awful supervisor we had and we actually decided to message the CEO informing her through email. All my coworkers besides the supervisor were included and no response was given today. I truly wonder what will be happening tomorrow/what I should do with my job. The supervisor has been here for a while so I’m unsure what could happen. With the frustration we have to go through on a daily basis, $20 hr truly is so little to deal with this. What would you do?

I've been working at a nursing home for 3 years now, doing part-time since I was in high school. I left during my senior year but came back once I began college. I was able to get my younger sister (a minor) to work alongside me and we both work weekends, 8 hour shifts. My younger sister doesn't drive, so I'm her number one transportation, and our hours (6-2) matched up for the most part. That was until I was put on a 9-6 shift, every other weekend. This caused a huge problem within my household since my family all work nightshifts except for me and my sister. I could drop her off in the morning, but who would pick her up? We were able to maintain this problem albeit at the cost of my family's sleep. My workplace had always been very stressful but I was able to tolerate…

My job, like all other jobs, has an employee handbook on everything what the worker needs to do, yada yada. But whats the kicker on why I'm asking here is, What's the legality if your old employee handbook is dated ahead of your new handbook (ex. old Jan 20th 2020 and new one dated Jan 9th 2020) They did have some kind of no verbal pressure to have new tax documents made and sign some cover page to have us sign that we agree to it all. Idk whats going on honestly, did they (management) just fucked us over?

Same old story. I asked my company for our salary bands, which they made a big song and dance about being transparent. Found out I was being paid less than colleagues in the same role and kicked off. They offered me £5,000 more per year. I started looking around and just accepted a job that pays a further £7,000 a year. (My salary was £43,000, got it bumped to £48,000 and now it will be £55,000). When are employers going to accept that we WORK FOR MONEY? I am not saying my salary was bad, but I work in a niche field within the finance industry and virtually no one wants my job. I can just imagine the screams when it gets around that I am leaving.
