I want to work from home one day. But one of my biggest worries is getting a work from home job that uses remote monitoring software or tracking software. I want to know what are some tips on avoiding jobs like these or how to know if they use them before getting hired?

The backpedaling on this is strong. Bo, an Asian women, hosted 2 work events where women discussed their views of being labeled as Karen's. She was put on leave for hosting the event, but there is a screenshot of Chief People Officer Nikki Krishamurthy being on the panel of white women. “The following day, on May 18, Uber’s chief people officer Nikki Krishnamurthy shared in an email that Lee was asked “to step back and take a leave of absence while we determine next steps.” “While it was meant to be a dialogue, it’s obvious that those who attended did not feel heard,” Krishnamurthy added of the May 17 session. This is what bothers me about work environments. They try so hard to be inclusive on paper, but when shit hits the fan, the white execs who are also at fault throw minority execs under the bus to take the…
My company was making me do work for the other companies they created for free. Anyways, I asked for a $20,000 bump. My supervisor a proclaimed Feminist, acted like I spit on her face. She said, “I will talk to my boss”. I know they will lowball me, so I’m applying for other jobs.
Don't get me wrong, i know self-care helps build resilience, which is important to help us cope and overcome issues like overworking, burnout, fears of losing your job, fears of being broke, etc. But I really don't think self-care is the only solution to these problems. They don't help us confront adversaries that affects our mental health in the first place. These can even be harmful because it make us content with adversaries. By changing the way we think and feel, somehow the world will become a better place? I don't like how managers, team leaders, or employers are promoting self-care as the only solution to any work-related problems. Some problems are more systematic and a single people may have less control over it. It seems like a cheap way to increase productivity without making systemic changes, like more pay, more benefits, or even UDI or a welfare system. In…

Does remote work help anyone?
Hi there. IT worker here. Nearly finished an internship, over a year, finish in august (thank god) Have personal problems due to growing up. Leads to poor work concentration and performance Most of the time work sets me off. Sitting in the office every day trying to act busy doesn’t help. Due to this I keep making the same mistakes over and over and my boss can’t wait for me to leave. Not surprised really Everyone else here works 2 days in the office and the rest remote, I asked if I could do the same but I guess they wanted a student they could pay cheaper to sit in the office everyday After this I’m looking for remote work. Or atleast a hybrid job. Do you think jobs will stay this way? I think IT jobs will but unsure Thanks
I work at a Sam’s Club and we have this quarterly bonus as incentive to actually try. The better we do the more it’s worth. Our scores have been the best that they’ve been since I’ve worked here which would range our share from 250-50, but it only ended up being 38 dollars because they bought the fucking Denver broncos or whatever team it was and our managers made it lower than other stores (store wide issue) by decorating and putting food in the break room using our money. It’s utterly ridiculous and honestly has left me drained
I work in Canada for an American company, so I'm on a time difference. Some days I start early, but America is still “sleeping” when it's my early days. Business and phones don't start ringing till around 11-12pm for me on those days. I get paid hourly… Shit ass pay. Can barely cover my rent. So on these early days I just… Clock in… Make a coffee… And relax for 1.5 on the couch, making sure my work computer volume is up high on the off chance someone is trying to get a hold of me this early. No idea if my boss knows I do this. No idea if they have any techy thing where they can see how much my mouse moves and shit but I've been doing this for over a year and I haven't been talked to about it yet so… I'm going to keep doing…

“You’re not flexible”
I work 4 different type of shifts. Early, day, late and nightshifts. I work weekends and official holiday days (Christmas, easter etc etc.) We are obligated to make our schedule 2 months in advance. Then they can still make changes to it for two weeks. Pretty flexible right? Nope, because management can’t find new employees they expect us to last minute change 4 – 5 shifts around. They can F*** off. I feel like working shifts, weekends and holidays is flexible enough. Ps: all our shifts, so for example morning shift start and end at different times too. So 7:30-15:30 / 7:00-15:00 / 7:00 – 15:30 , same applies to late and night shifts. Confusing yea? And then telling us we’re not flexible enough.
