He give stupid orders to issue warning letter on verbal instructions and later on say employees that he has done on his own accord. Now on me sending emails, he is not calling me to meetings and transferring me to Admin department. What to do?

I'll start… Back in 2014 i was in between jobs and needed rent money i was applying to basic places i.e foor resturants and retailers. Well i got a interview from a local game stop shop, all was normal until she asked a basic question that i will never forget. The queation was simple for a video game retailer, the question was “what game are you most looking forward to in the next year?” Now at the time a fallout 4 was announced and was well along the way (probably no more than 3 months from release). I told them just that, i was hyped for fallout 4 how i love the series and completely nerded out. The interviewer let me speak my piece and really let roll with it to really show my compassion, after everything was said and done she took a few seconds pause turned back to…

Super shot notice. I think I finally hit the point I will carry through with this. I'm a coward at heart so who knows if I will. I'll update the thread with what I did by 4PM EST 2/10/21 or sooner ————– [Manager name] I really am sorry about this, but I joined [CEO's] live chat and confronted him about the IT layoffs. Truely, I don't believe you had any notice or advanced knowledge about this, and I hold no ill will against you about this. I seriously hope this doesn't blow back on you, and I accept any consequence and discipline I receive for my actions, including termination of my employment. This may be over dramatic, I won't deny, but I felt the need to do this as a representation of who I am and want to be. I won't pretend I was on perfect relations with all the…

I have a surgery coming up March 24th. My check is supposed to come the 25th. I asked my supervisor if my PTO could go on that check since I will be out till April. She said that they won’t do that. She says “Aint that your last day with the company?”. I have never insinuated I was leaving and even stated in my email to them in Dec letting them know about my surgery, i gave the exact dates of when I’d be gone and when I’d be returning. They denied my raise last week. They posted my job on Indeed two days ago. Now they’re not letting me use my PTO and the fact my supervisor says that makes me certain that they were planning on firing me during leave for “excessive absence”, since apparently that’s legal. I’m just super upset, and worse over, mad I can’t just…

Immigrant that’s in a temporary visa situation for a long time. CV and Experience – on paper – not a top candidate so very nervous for future prospects and have always thought I’m current in a position that is good opportunity. However, I am a competent, reliable and talented worker that’s been unhappy in my current company and position for some time. Beleiving it would be difficult short term to fill my varied role. With training and time competent people could do this role. I trained myself in role. I’ve found this sub and it’s helped me order my thoughts and give me some kind of viewpoint and perspective for what is and isn’t ok from employers. I work for a small firm in specialist home construction and have title of manager after working my way up from labourer position. The issues I’ve had besides being spoken to poorly, laughed…

Say, theoretically, I wanted a certain amount of money today to never have to work again, never have to worry about money again, but live a very luxurious life, how much would I need in my bank to retire on? (Granted I would be investing in index funds and S&P 500’s, etc)

Company never made offer letter or anything but paid for my insurance exam. I didn’t fill out ANY FORMS! So I just want to make sure. My usual subs are quite dead but I can’t sleep and I know you guys have a lot of great information. I feel stupid because they convinced me to leave my job and I had no income for two weeks. Like I’m such a soft person and I feel bad for not paying them and yet I do not want to pay them. This is what I wrote for their email and I figured I send them a text message saying “hey I’m sorry to leave you on short notice but I have a better job opportunity for a full explanation please see the email I sent” “Dear company x,Hope all is well with you. I'm sending this email because I do not wish…
