Did I interview at a marketing MLM?

Context: I am job hunting in the non profit world. I received and invitation to interview for a marketing company that works with non profits to fundraise (food banks, breast cancer research, etc.). The first interview was via Zoom, and it was a group interview. I have never had a group interview and it was weird. It was with the CEO and she kept saying how “lucky” we were to be chosen to interview out of 400+ applicants. Weird flex but ok? I got a call less than 5 hours later letting me know I had been selected for the 2nd round in-person interview for 8am Monday. The person who called me (HR) *also* said “Congratulations for the chance to move on to the next round! We receive hundreds of applicants.” Now this is a red flag that feels MLM-y. ​ the 2nd interview went like this: Walk into an…

I got hired and they changed their mind?

Hi you guys, this is my first time making a post so sorry if the way I write is not the best. Let me get straight to the point, about 4 weeks ago I had met this guy who helped me get a job at a restaurant in my town, I got an interview with one of the managers and i instantly was hired and was set to start the following week. I payed like 70$ for the uniform cause they don’t provided you with one. So the day I was supposed to start I literally got dressed and was on my way to enter when I got a phone call telling me not to enter anymore because I wasn’t put into the system yet, that they were gonna let me know when I was put in & I should be able to start the following week.

“Save for retirement! This is how you can grow your money!”

Warning, this is a rant. I'm sick of working this way so of course on TikTok there's always something. Recently I've gotten a lot of content on how to “grow your money” to save for retirement. And it's coming from the mouths of 26-30 year olds who already make 6 figures. So of course my question is how to get where they are, right? But no, they tell you to save for retirement and grow your money in a 10-15 year, I've even heard up to a 35 year time span. Like.. don't shit on my floor and call it decoration, bro. You know exactly what information I want. How to get like YOU. Then I remember that they probably have rich parents, but I digress. However they talk in circles and don't give you specifics because of course you have to pay money for information, money you don't have…

Genuine question: How is it that U.S. conservatives are better at organizing boycotts than the 2.7 million people on this sub?

We are more connected than ever but it seems only conservatives in the U.S. are using social media to organize boycotts of stores and products they don’t agree with on a large scale. How can we come together and show the collective power of workers and improve the standard of living for workers all around the world?
