I was with this company for almost two years. It was my first job after receiving my certification. I was so grateful for the opportunity to break into my field as many have tried and failed. I was told I was an apprentice. A position they start all newbies out in to teach them how to preform the job correctly. It started out fine. Working with a trainer I would do the job and then have them check my work before sending it. However this only occurred for a few months while I was doing only 4 pieces of work a day. One day they said okay we are done checking you. Just release your own work when done. This was not a good idea. To go from 100% checking to 0% checking. The job is very conditional on each part and unique to each piece of work. (I am…

Talk to your coworkers about striking and unionizing. Spread the word. That's all you have to do, and if it catches on you can go with it. Everyone says we can't change anything, but if you're seeing this, literally all you have to do is start talking to your coworkers. Get some dialogue going, and if it catches on then you strike, or form a union (make sure it's a good one and not a shitty one tho.) If it doesn't catch on then I guess just hope your supervisor doesn't hear you've been trying to start shit.

im a quitting my shitty minimum wage job for a great state job with great pay and benefits. im at my wits end with this company. i have so mamy reasons why im quitting which i wont get into but no one respects me (figured since im one of only 3 black people in this store). this place is fulled with men who make me so uncomfortable. me quitting on short notice is going to fuck everyone over tomorrow but i dont fucking care. is it bad if i wrote a kinda like fuck you goodbye note and leave it on the counter? if you did something similar i would love to hear it.

Hi this is just a rant. I have been employed at my current job for two years, as well as in 2018-2019 previously. About a week ago my coworkers and I learned we are being laid off from our nonprofit museum job. In our little department, 75% of us are being let go at the end of August. Without our knowledge, we had been declared a “financial failure” by an outside consulting firm and were being eliminated due to the museum’s new five year plan. They plan to remain open for one more financial year, and then close in 2025 for renovations. They decided that they only needed a fraction of their staff for the next year, and would instead lean more heavily on their volunteers (of which the numbers are significantly dwindling and aging). So later after HR told us this one by one, I was asked if I…

The inflationary make belief fiat currency is not based in reality because it is not backed by anything real. If dollars or formerly known as bank notes were representative of Gold or Silver, than it would not be possible for our government to get bailed out by some foreign entity known as the Federal reserve who deems themselves God in printing money out of thin air. It's the root of the problem and can be identified as the issue behind the culture and soulless entity today known as work.

It was very educational seeing how pay was determined dmined from the other side of things. The top roll making more than 10x the entry roll prior to extra benifits such as bonus and such. Seeing how the pandemic caused them to raise entry level pay, but not enough to matter, and how people who interviewed well for manager rolls and asked for more got more opposed to someone who just took what was originally offered. Asked me any questions you may have about the wage process and I’ll answer as best I can.

I applied to this job by spamming job postings on Craig’s List because I can’t find myself to individually apply for jobs by writing a custom CVs or perform those awful Indeed quizzes. This was one of two jobs that got back with me and both jobs were toxic and high hourly salary. I decided to keep looking, but so far no luck. One week later, the owner of the company called me back to see if I was still interested. THIS NEVER HAPPENS. I knew they must of been very desperate so was I, except I made it known I need a good salary. Starting off in the company seemed fairly normal. I was trained for two whole days with the Accountant to get me going with learning how to do the job as a Scheduler. There was another person on the same department as myself and she taught…

i worked at a local coffee shop for 4 months. i LOVED my job so much and my co workers. I got home from a trip to NY to find my hours on the Square app had been removed. i asked my boss about it and he wanted to call. i said no and wanted to text. he told me i had been fired. i asked why and apparently the till had been coming up short during my shifts (i don’t work alone. i work with multiple other people lol). i told him to check the cameras and he admitted there was no proof. gave me no chance to defend myself and blocked me. i’m so upset. i really loved my job and i’m absolutely distraught at the accusation.
