Can I just say – not a fan.

Answers to questions: I was depressed and at times suicidal, plus I didn’t want to work. I was retrenched due to the crypto bear market, along with 30% of my company and half my team.

I wish I could get given a task and then be left alone to focus on it, but I get interrupted every 10 minutes with an urgent request, leaving me no time for backlog.

your early twenties are seriously the trenches. help.

I never thought I'd find myself writing about my deepest feelings on Reddit, but here we go. Hi. I'm a 2000s Gen Z, and I'm fucking lost. I quit my job a couple months ago, on the spot, due to bullying and harassment by the people I worked for. I couldn't stand being there anymore, and it was starting to affect my mental health, deeply. I barely have any money to cover my rent for the next month. I can't a find a job with the degree I have, and all of the ones I could afford to sign up for are soul sucking, mindless, capitalistic BS jobs that pay less than what the work is worth, and will probably be taken over by an AI machine in the next four months. I haven't dated in many years, although I've tried. I've lost many friends since college ended. Nonetheless, I…

Wouldn’t being rich solve most of your problems?

Am I the only one? Beside fixing my health conditions as much as I can with the current medical technology out there, I would finally be free to live my days however I can without having to adhere to stupid routines and deadlines, etc. The list is endless.

Do yourself a favor and Google the Ludlow Massacre. In 1914, coal miners in Colorado got sick of 14 hour 7 day work weeks and their children being forced to work with them. So they led a massive strike called the coal wars, fought off the National Guard, and changed everything.

Different wages for workers with the same experience

I’m currently working at a fine dining restaurant and many of my coworkers and I have discussed our wages and we have discovered that some of us have been getting paid less even though our experience levels are fairly similar. I am curious if there is any action I could take against the restaurant or what the right path would be?
