Boss didn’t fix my schedule, despite me working my ass off, so I fixed it myself.

I’m not too sure if this fits the idea of anti work, but at most someone might enjoy it. I work retail, fast food specifically. Working for the Golden Arches is manageable on a good day and ‘I want to scoop my eyes out with a melon baller’ on a bad day. Most weeks I work Monday to Friday and I have the open shift, waking up at 5, starting at 6 to get the store ready for the day. I don’t mind this since it’s usually quiet and I don’t have to deal with anything too much. But I’ve been doing it… a lot. I’m the only person that can do it pretty much. There was a two month block where I was doing it every weekday. I needed a change, and I felt guilty since my mum drives me to work. I recently asked my manager if she…

I am heading in to work a 12 hour shift, and will do so again tomorrow, with 1 hour less sleep. I hate DST.

Title says it all. I hate how that no one cares what affect the loss of the hour has on weekend workers. I am leaving for work now, see ya in 12 and a half hours.

Billionaires = Oligarchs. Change the language, change the world!

I will no longer participate in using the modest self-description of Billionaire. They are oligarchs. We all know it. The word Billionaire is excessively shoved down our throats by politicians and MSM until most are no longer able to even smell it anymore, like a billionaire tobacco smoke. They're oligarchs. If we steadfastly ditch their term Billionaire, they will also have to.

So who are you?

Common guys, here's the reality. If you do the bare minimum required work, you should expect a cost of living raise. If you don't complete the bare minimum you probably won't get the COL raise and if your employer isn't a total piece of shit he will find your replacement. If you do more, absolutely you should get more! If your employer doesn't respect that, find one that does. Unfortunately you may work for the bare minimum guy or the sub standard POS. Isn't that what this sub about? Or is it for anti work never getting a raise cry baby soap box? Let me know. As a previous employer I never took more money. I always gave more $$$ it hurt me personally but my employees were awesome. Now I'm the employee and not getting noticed, disrespected and no raise yet. I'm the most productive, efficient and knowledgeable. I'm…

Hybrid pay?

Interesting thought. I work for a company that pays an hourly wage and also a bonus $2-$5 for billed hours. Of course they control your billable hrs completely! They also throw up efficiency and productivity numbers up for everyone to see. Remember these jobs and hours are completely under their control. Knowone knows the algorithm. The manager can book whatever they want to you. I have to beg for work, because I like to stay busy. I calculate I made $2.50 an hour (2080 hr/yr) @$5/hr bonus pay. I'm ranked the highest for efficiency in my location. This my friends should be illegal. Maybe it is?? The only one who wins is the employer. Been with them for 14 months no raise. Did I mention I'm the highest ranked.

Played worlde with my co workers most of the shift I’m in retail management

Fk it, we are on minimum wage and worked through the whole pandemic cuz we're “essential”. Give me a break. So played wordle on the computer with my co workers and only helped customers if they asked and didn't bother them with any crappy upsell conversations. Was a great day

“Don’t hate me for this, but overheard B saying that when they make the next schedule she’s going to try and boot you out” okay bet

I've posted on here a few times, but here's the short of it: I'm an overnight housekeeper at a hospital, thrown onto this shift alone after being trained for 4 days, making minimum wage ($10/h) and no night differential. I don't mind my work. It's tolerable and I have a strong stomach. But my director is literally a nightmare: never in, doesn't tell me jack shit, and can't even get another employee to cover my shift without having another employee work doubles. I've accepted a summer job across the country (with intention to move into a nearby city once that's over) that pays $16/h, AND provides free housing. I haven't quit yet bc a.) My mom would yell at me, and b.) as shitty as it is, I appreciate the extra income Coworker I get along with told me my boss (B) was looking at “booting me from my shift”…
