They just gave me full time hours when I applied for part time

I'm so annoyed. Usually I'd appreciate the gesture, but my GM said it was perfectly fine to work 3-4 days a week since I'm working on my GED. So tell me why I get the schedule yesterday and I've got 5 days on this week; a solid 40 hours? He also never told me my starting wage, so we're gonna have to have a talk. I'm so fucking close to just walking entirely since I've got a bitch of a coworker that's making it difficult to want to stick around as it is, but it took me forever to find this job. Fuck this shit.

Crowd boos Hollywood CEO as unions and DSA picket outside

Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav — a multimillionaire who has slashed content from streaming services for use as tax write-offs — was met by a huge WGA-DSA picket at BU's commencement yesterday — with hundreds outside, plus Scabby and a plane, as BU grads turned their backs and drowned him in boos and chants. Pay your writers, David, and stay the fuck out of Massachusetts.

Frustrating beyond belief

I have been on the job hunt for several weeks now. I've lost count how many ridiculously unimportant time wasting poorly managed profiles for every different company who might want to see a CV. Then upload the CV and still have to fill in 6 pages worth of drop down option menus that never work right. FUCK!!

New Hire, entry level, Not Allowed To Shadow!!??

Just started working for a mid sized accounting firm for a entry level position and we got very little training. Just a few short videos is all I got, maybe 2 hours worth. I’m not allowed to shadow, I have to do my work, submit it and then I get a grade back. The things I have done wrong are check off with no explanation. I think I chose the wrong company.

My boss had to work the first time in 6 years, we got a raise

I work in a small gas station in Germany on the weekend, additional to my full-time job. There are only two main employees and me and one other weekend guy who's barely there. Minimum wage here is 12€/h and we get paid that. Most of the time, the work is done by only 1 person. Watch out for gas thieves because my boss is too cheap for cameras, clean up spills, refill coolers, make food to sell. We also have trailers that we rent out and take packages for Hermes, a shipping company. It really is a lot to handle, especially in the Summer. We haven't been able to find new workers for a while and my boss went on the usual 'nobody want to work anymore' and 'the youth nowadays are just so lazy' rants all the time. One weekend, no one was able to work and he had…
