Many know by now that a UPS strike is imminent but what some don’t know is that USPS will most likely take on most or all of UPS packages while workers strike. This is a problem because USPS employees can not legally strike and must deliver all packages brought to them or they will be breaking federal law. What can USPS employees do to support UPS workers while also not be punished by the law & be fired?

I work in a primary care office, and my manager wanted to meet with me and the provider I work with about what I assumed was this patient rescheduling project she's asked me to work on. Instead they wanted to talk about how they've noticed a “change in my demeanor” the last few weeks. They didn't say I was doing anything wrong or that I needed to change anything. Well, congratulations, you picked up on the fact that I'm tired of working 40 hours every single week and still living in abject poverty. In the last few weeks I've learned I'm probably going to have to sell the home I've lived in since 2010 to pay my debts. And with the wage I'm paid I'll never be able to afford the rent increase getting an apartment would bring. I'm facing being unhoused and I've had the boot of capitalism crushing…
I work for a rather large corporate employer (it's a chain of convenience stores). They don't allow employees to discuss wages. I haven't seen it in writing anywhere, but, it's been told to me by a number of people (our manager, DM, someone from HR). As far as I'm aware this is against federal labor laws. Is there anyone or anything I could report them to for this? Thank you so much!
Background: it's sloping because the wall anchors/wall are bad. If you put pans on it, they can slide and fall on your head. You'd think the owner of a limited liability corporation would be more aware of liability. What if anything can be done?

Can’t enjoy free time anymore
Not sure if this is the right sub but..So I'm usually working 60-75 hours a week at a hospital. I haven't had more than a few days off sonce December. Now I'm having 3 weeks worth of vacation and half of it is over and I can for the life of me not relax. I never had problems with anxiety but since the vacation started it's up to the max. I'm overthinking, worried I forgot to manage something before I went into my vacation, worried I did something wrong and when I come back to work, bad news /a lecture/losing my job ect are gonna wait for me. Which is highly unrealistic and I know this. It's driving me nuts. I have 10 days left that I want to enjoy but I can't shake this constant work related feeling of doom off (getting dramatic here). Can anyone maybe relate?
